Yeah, this is probably going to bomb. I have to give them some credit for making it look goofy and having characters look like the cartoon, but it's giving me "trying hard to be a Marvel movie" vibes. The ultra generic trailer music doesn't help.

This honestly looks like they had someone sneak them all the assets from Ragnarok and hit shuffle.

Yeah. If you want a MotU adaptation to be successful you need to fully commit to the goofyness. The stuff happening on-screen needs to be absolutely ridiculous but the characters need to take it all completely seriously. There cannot be a "normal person" commenting on how weird things are.

This movie was sunk the moment they decided to make Adam come from Earth.
