Tickets are now on sale for this. If you live near a Harkins theater, they are showing it 1 day early on the 17th.

I’m hoping that trailer isn’t a bait and switch. I’m excited for this!

I still don’t get why the little marshmallow men are a thing outside of “Hey, you remember this!” *wink, wink* from the filmmakers. I still worry that the whole movie will be filled with that kind of stuff.

Either way, I’m hopeful for this movie!

Did a full throated gasp followed by both hands over mouth at this part. Hype for this is 11/10.

More boring nostalgia for nostalgia's sake. I'll pass, and I love the original.

If you don't go catch it in a theater it may be yours....

That said, I look forward to this, but wish they would keep some stuff a surprise.

Nah. It’ll stream soon enough after release. I can wait, but will be jealous cause this will be huge. I’m talking Ant-Man huge. Streaming just fine. I got No Time To Die rented for weekend so that wasn’t a huge timeframe. It’ll be alright. And Never say never…

Friend of mine just saw it. All he could say was it's a good sequel and stay until the credits are done.

I'm hoping to see it Thursday afternoon.

too many kids in this which is a bad sign. I think this will not be great, not be better than the other GB reboot, and many will act like it's the greatest thing on earth just because.

I'm not sure about them bringing in kids to appeal to kids. We didn't need the cast to be made up of kids to appeal to us when the first movie came out.

I would, generally, agree with this statement, but it really depends on how they're handled.

I really get the sense that they want this to be like Stranger Things (even going so far as to cast one of the kids from that in it), and I'm a bit more concerned about that aspect of it.

We shall see.

They're trying to appeal to the adults in their late 40's/early 50's who were kids when the first film came out while simultaneously trying to appeal to their kids as well.

The thing about the first movie was it was clever and funny, without being condescending. It appealed to almost everyone because it was a good movie.

sort of like how you have already decided it’s the worst thing on earth just because.
