Following the massive backlash to the first trailer, the bozos running the marketing at Paramount have obviously listened to the fans and fixed things with the release of the second trailer for Gladiator II.
Some bozo at Paramount thought it was a good idea to include rap music in the first Gladiator II trailer, which didn’t sit well with fans. The movie is set in ancient Rome not the present day wherever.
The first trailer has 305k dislikes.
The good news is that changes in the second trailer which has ditched the goofy rap music. The likes are way up compared to the dislikes. Maybe there is hope for this movie, yet.
Watch the new trailer below.
