We got the first trailer for BumblebeeOpens in a new tab, and it looks like it could be a very different kind of TransformersOpens in a new tab movie. On today’s Nerdist News Talks BackOpens in a new tab we discussed if it could get the franchise back on track, along with the new trailers for The LEGO Movie 2Opens in a new tab and Mortal EnginesOpens in a new tab.
Jessica Chobot was joined by Nerdist News writers Aliza Pearl and Joey Clift, as well as video editor Adam Murray on today’s trailer round-up show, and they started with the trailer for Opens in a new tabBumblebee. Are we on board for this, and could it be the jump start the franchise needs? And is it time for the Rick Roll joke to finally be ejected from our tape deck for good?
We also received a trailerOpens in a new tab for The LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part, and it had some major Mad Max vibes. Did the original even need a sequel? Are we happy it calls out the lazy trope of a bad ass female needing to be immediately rescued, or do we expect they’ll go even further with the gag?
Finally, we also got a full trailer for the dystopian action film Mortal Engines, produced by Peter Jackson. Are we excited for him to help bring this world to life, or would we prefer to see him back in the director’s chair? If we could drive any city around like a giant car which one would we pick?
