There is a reason why this man takes a while to make a movie. This man stays creating and breaking boundaries. Underwater motion capture!? So another trailer has dropped and James, James is just swinging for those damn fences...and clearing them! This trailer looks all types of great and not only does the trailer not give you much, the trailer gives you a whole lot more than the teaser trailer and it is absolute great.
In my last review I said Jake now has a child, but it seems like he has a few children. There is a character who seems to be listening to the planet, another character who wants none of anything Jake is warning them about, a possible civil war between the Na'vi AND the humans, or now other avatars are back bringing the war. I have no idea what exactly this is about, but just like the first one, I will be watching this, and quite possibly, in both 2D and 3D like I did before. The music sounds great and it goes without saying, the visuals look amazing. It is just a wonder how well this movie will do now that it is 13 years away since the first movie. I mean, Top Gun was older and they achieved great success with the sequel.
I am going to be real honest. I tried to watch this show possibly, 4 times, maybe even 5 and I could not get through it. This is due to many reasons and none of my reasons were due to this show being either boring, rubbish, disinteresting or disappointing. The times I tried to watch this show was usually at night. You know, a 20-25 minute cartoon fix before bed, something I could just put on and not focus too much on it. More often getting through a single episode than the optimistic 3 or 4 before falling asleep because I was too tired. It was that or I kept getting distracted or I just did not have enough time. Every time I pressed play, I could not remember where I was until one day, I decided to watch the show, AGAIN...and from the beginning AND to be dedicated. I made this decision because deep down, I enjoyed the show. It was funny. It was engaging. It is Sci-fi among many other things I love, but basically, it seemed like a good story. Was it a good story at the end of the 3 seasons? Yes, YES!!!
Gary is an ordinary guy from Infinity Guard. He is not exceptionally intelligent or capable, he is just a good guy who wants to follow in his father's footsteps. One day The Gary (sorry Gary... you'll understand when you watch it), walks into a bar and sees a woman he instantly falls in love with. It is love at first sight for Gary, but Quinn does not give him the time of day until Gary tries all he can to get her to like him, but all his actions lead to him being imprisoned.
Whilst in Prison serving out his sentence and given a robotic floating sphere companion named KVN, Gary is on one of his daily tasks where he bumps into a little green sentient blob-like ball-thing with a face he names "Mooncake". Finding Mooncake cute and adorable, Gary takes in Mooncake and defends it from being captured from a being called the Lord Commander whom is after Mooncake. It is from this moment The Gary sets off a chain of events that include meeting a catlike creature named Avocato, and his son, Little-Cato, eventually Quinn and is forced into a situation where The Gary and his Team Squad are tasked to save the galaxy.
But going into Season 2 we meet more characters such as Fox, Ash and a Titan named Bolo. Yes, a Titan. This show is wild. It's a goofy, comedy, sci-fi cartoon with tons of drama. An example of it's goofiness would be a scene where Gary dances to beat the enemy which is absolutely hilarious. Or you he his love for cookies and dreaming of cookie children cannot go amiss. The comedy lies between the characters such as Gary, KVN, H.U.E and Fox. Obviously this is a cartoon, so this cartoon is allowed to get dark, especially as this is not for children, but the drama it packs, I was close to tears in a few scenes throughout it's run. The themes of love, lost, rejection, friendship, parenting, motherhood and fatherhood, the show, whilst wrapped in goofy comedy, the show is quality. The voice acting is top-notch especially hearing the skins, the soundtrack is great and the storyline is beyond amazing. Let's think of Star-Lord from Marvel, with a little bit of a Rick and Morty vibe laced in everything sci-fi. Whilst I love to go on and on about this series, I risk of spoiling all the sci-fi elements the. show gets into. Whilst I understand this show might be a little difficult to follow at the very beginning , but once you get into it, essentially, it is a love story, written soo well. Try and give this show a chance and you might just like it, just like me. You might also be devastated when you get to the end. I hope someone picks this up

And it seems like Hope really should have explained everything that really went on down in the quantum realm, because now it seems like Kang will be after not only her, but the entire team to help carry out this task and maybe killing her if he does not get what he wants... whatever that is?
This trailer looks great. Although labelled the 'official trailer', that second trailer is going to hit different and I am pretty sure, it is going to be the one that pulls you in. Seeing Bill Murray and hearing and seeing Jonathan Majors is also great, but at this point, it is simply a trailer to let us know when this film will be out, that it is coming and those invested in the MCU will definitely watch to keep up with everything MCU related. However, I do not believe this trailer does enough to pull us in yet, to confirm to us, this is a must see.
Oh and Majors looks sinister! That's what, two films now? Creed 3 and this...
