Trailers for movies, television and games

This is a community for posting and sharing trailers and teasers for upcoming film, television and video game premieres. The goal is to provide subscribers a curated feed of trailers for UPCOMING media. General-purpose posts about movies, television and games are better suited for other communities around the Lemmyverse. This place is just for trailers.

Rules

  1. All posts must be trailers or teasers; not full movies, not trailers for trailers, and not clips of popular scenes. Meta posts from mod staff are OK, but should be kept to a minimum.
  2. No fan-made trailers or remixes.
  3. Trailers for upcoming content only. Do not spam the community with trailers for media that has already been released.
  4. Link to official channels for trailers whenever possible (ie: the YouTube accounts of each film's studio or distribution company); avoid linking to videos from media outlets that function as aggregators / re-posters if you can.
  5. Post titles should follow formatting guidelines: "Media Name (release year, relevant creator credit)". Creator credits should be directors for films and games, showrunners for television series. Other details such as starring actors, writers, production studios, etc can be added to the post description.
  6. Don't be a jerk.

It feels like the ewok movies all over again. Giving it the benefit of the doubt, but I am not hopeful based on this trailer.

It sort of seems like the Star Wars version of the last 2 Ghostbusters movies. Which I didn't hate, but also don't really think of as good. They were fan service, and Star Wars has been way too over saturated with fan service as of late. There was so little of that in Andor and I think that's one of the reasons the show worked so well. That and the fact that they actually put some effort and thought into the writing.

The angle I'd heard elsewhere was that this seemed like Star Wars: Goonies, which I think would make a pretty entertaining story. So long as the writing can figure out how to not make the kid characters so darn precious. For a Goonies angle to work, they kinda need to be some degree of little shits, but still endearing.
