Gladiator II | Official Trailer (2024 Movie) - Paul Mescal, Pedro Pascal, Denzel Washington
From director Ridley Scott, watch the new Official Trailer for #GladiatorII starring Paul Mescal, Pedro Pascal, Denzel Washington, Connie Nielsen, Joseph Quinn, and Fred Hechinger - Only in theatres November 22.
I really enjoyed ‘Gladiator’. Don’t really need a sequel so I’ll skip it and this trailer. Maybe I’ll go watch ‘Gladiator’. It’s been a while since I saw it.
My comments.... start.... NOW:
It definitely looks like Denzel is going to introduce "My man!" to ancient Rome.
I try to avoid watching trailers these days but accidentally stumbled into this one... and beyond it plain showing too much it left me puzzled and disappointed.
This does not have the look and feel of a Ridley Scott movie, almost all the way through it left me wondering IS this the Gladiator 2 trailer or is it for something else?
What's with the very bad placement of the rap music? Come on this does not fit at all. I can only hope the soundtrack for the actual movie will be leagues better.
I did not like ANY of the characters, besides the presentation being a jumble, no character stood out to where I'd think "oh I am interested in his story".
All in all, originally I was looking out for this movie, but my interest dropped far after seeing this trailer, not the effect a trailer is supposed to have.
I don't know what changed with modern trailers but they're almost unwatchable.
I think it starts with the "Oh shit, get excited for what you're about to watch" opening. I know what I'm about to watch, I chose that.
Then quick cuts all over the place. Just makes me disoriented.
I'm not gonna see this anyway. I'm in the extremely small minority that didn't like the first one.

It's been like that for at least 20 years... I took a (paid) survey way back when I had a girlfriend who was into that sort of thing, and they had me watch a movie trailer and give feedback on it, and that was my comment, that it was just so much rapid fire cutting every less than 2 seconds I couldn't even follow what was going on - the survey taker looked at me like I had a third arm and basically refused to take my comment.
Don't forget most trailers these days show the whole movie in a condensed form... The ones for comedies plain show all the big jokes like it's not important.
The art of the good Teasers and Trailers died somewhere after the time the first two Star Wars Prequels came out.

For that part, blame Google. They use the trailers as ads on other videos on YouTube, but given the length it can only be the "skip after 5 seconds" kind. So they include as much as they can in the first 5 unskippable seconds and then put the rest of the trailer after. Otherwise, people just skip the ad during the MPAA notice and production credits and don't have to see what it's even an ad for.
Is it written in Denzel's.contracts that there must be a Jay Z song in every trailor? Lol
Man, that's a long trailer.. feels like I watched the whole thing.
Truly dumb idea of a movie.
Unwatchable
