It's a terrible trailer, the music, the lead actor doesn't fit at all and then whatever the fuck Denzel is going for.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again, I have a soft spot for the 2019 Hellboy. It's absolutely a bad movie but it's a much better Hellboy/BPRD adaptation than the Del Toro films (which are good films but terrible adaptations) That trailer doesn't fill me much with confidence though. Looks like The Conjuring but with a guy in a bad Hellboy cosplay instead of Patrick Wilson. Agree 100%. If the costume was better, it would be an improvement but honestly I’m not sure that it’s entirely possible to make him look sensible in a live action film.

The film could be good but the trailer does it no favours and why use that music instead of the obvious Gladiator music.

What movie, and country, does Denzel think he's in?

Are you not entertained?
No, we are not.
Hope that's just a shit trailer because it looks like another Ridley Scott film that shits on one of his previous great ones.

What is with the CGI looking a lot worse than way back in the day? Looks awful. Over worked studios with less time.

It doesn't matter if Gladiator II is good or not. All that matters is we get another year of Ridley Scott doing the press circuit, and really, isn't that all we ever want?

He's the hiphopopatumus, his lyrics are bottomless.

I didn't realise I needed a prequel to FUBAR until just now:
(If you are non-plussed, seriously check FUBAR out, it's a Canadian mockumentary movie where the actors interact with real people Borat-style and is actually genuinely brilliant).

Bit of a nothing featurette really, just explaining its between Alien and Aliens which maybe news for anyone not paying much attention, jumbled quick cuts of scenes in 1080p and lots of macroblocking, not sure why a film company doesn't put more effort in! Maybe the 4K not terrible looking version was still processing but that's unlikely.

I didn't think the Gladiator trailer looked THAT bad. Shite music choice aside.

I think its biggest problem, apart from the music, is that it makes a mess of showing what it is or even a hint of why it exists.

Gladiator II just looks like more Gladiator to me. I'm not sure what I was expecting, but from the trailer it does look like it hews fairly close to the format of the original (man of means forced to become slave/gladiator, fights for a somewhat corrupt-looking patron, seeks revenge within the arena in front of a venal emperor).
But, I mean, it looks entertaining. He fights a rhino for goodness' sake.

This is why it looks terrible!

I've got to the "OK I'm not watching any more pre-release vids" on this one. Would be nice to go in with some surprises. Hopefully the biggest surprise of all will be us getting a GOOD Aliens movie!

That'll be tough. Alien 3 has set a high benchmark.
