I am surprised.  I assumed it would be rated PG-13.

The musical is as family-friendly as anything you'll find on Broadway. If Into the Woods managed a PG this was definitely getting one too.

Into the Woods was released in a different time.  I thought they would just throw in an F word to get to PG-13.

Most international versions of the new trailer are different and don't have the use of Definyng gravity.

Here we go again.. let's make a musical and then let's hide this thing 😴

If someone doesn’t know this is a musical at this point then that’s on them. This is trailer 3 and it’s literally based on a musical.

 

But this is definitely the best trailer out of all three. If Moana 2 hadn’t appeared out of thin air this would’ve had a clear runway until Mufasa. Still should be #2 for November though.

Regardless if this is good or bad...that Defying Gravity cover is already giving me the chills. I know I sound like a theater kid, but it's still one of my favorite show tunes ever, and they perfected it.

The Defying Gravity cover is the main draw for me.

No trailer has made really clear It's a musical.

 

90% of people of International markets see the trailer on the big screen doesn't know the musical Wicked exists so a lot of people don't know that.

 

Anyways what i want to notice is how this time we can even see different trailers and the international one doesn't have the main Song is so important in the american trailer. They're doing everything to sell It as a normal drama fantasy in countries where musical don't work that much.

 

I find It a good strategy after all. The risk is to have then people complaining about the fact is a musical even It the movie is a good musical.  Maybe they believe once people watch It they will like it anyways 😄

I like this trailer a lot more than the others. I know for a fact this soundtrack will be my jam at the end of the year!

Not to mentiont that Wicked has been one of the most sucessful Musical Stage shows in History.

If you don't know this is a musical,  you are really, really, out of touch.

Particluarly since Wicked is one of the most famous musical stage shows in History. It is sort of like not knowing that Hamilton is a  musical.

But yeah, that this is  in two parts is my big concern about this film. Thye are streachin it really thin.

I LOVE the musical, but this looks....so boring and stale. How are you gonna make a WIZARD OF OZ movie look this butt ugly.

If you call a director as horrible as Jon M. Chu this is what you get: horrible.
And next year we have another one!

Yes but you definitely wouldn't know it's a part 1. Especially when the director keeps saying stuff like this:
