Surprised to see so much Odyssey content in this movie (Sand Kingdom, the T-Rex from Cascade/Wooded Kingdom). I would have thought they’d be saving Odyssey for a third film, particularly since this one also appears to be eating some of Sunshine’s spotlight.
And I know that Sand Kingdom was a brief backdrop in the first movie, but there’s a difference between having it as background set dressing vs. actually going there for a protracted scene in the movie.
I think I’ve hit the point in the hype cycle where I’m done watching its trailers. Like the Marvel Cinematic Universe, I know I’m going to see it. I don’t want to repeat anything and feel like I’m rewatching something.
Good thing about having terrible memory is I can watch the trailer and by the time I watch the movie I will have forgotten absolutely everything 😅
I think it’s absurd that they need a whole Direct for what will be a minute and a half trailer for a movie we already know exists (and have seen footage of). I get Directs are their thing or whatever but it just feels like Nintendo smoking their own supply. Just drop a trailer, guys.
Just a publicity thing. To hype up the trailer, with some marketing talk from Nintendo and Illumination side.
