Maybe they planned to release it at the super bowl but weren't able to so they put it online.

It's weird because I remember watching the Super Bowl and anticipated them showing a trailer for the movie but instead they showed a different Disney commercial (celebrating Disney 100 or something? idk) but they included TLM Live Action with already seen clips. Also strange to me that they only released a teaser with not much new content (keeping in mind that content on the movie has already been leaked).
Anyway, I don't know if we're allowed to post leaked content on here (lmk if otherwise) but this clip of Halle singing is amazing. I loved her in Chloe x Halle and she's perfect for this role.

There are a lot of things to criticize with this adaptation but I think Halle's performance makes it clear that her casting isn't one of them. She is the best Ariel they could have hoped for.
No matter how good or bad everything else is, I will be listening to the music from this movie on repeat.
I wonder if there will be an entirely new song like how some other remakes have done

I liked the first POYW from the audio that leaked for the most part. Don't care for the reprise though.
Yes--"For the First Time." I know there were two other new songs at one point, but I think they might've been cut? I'm unsure. Although, no, I think Awkwafina's rap as Scuttle is still in there.
It was confirmed a while back that Alan Menkin and Lin-Manuel Miranda would be writing new songs.

I personally found the reprise amazing, especially the ending high note. Like DAMN that girl can sing. She is the ideal Ariel for a live-action remake.
Why are all the YT comments people going "I loved the part when [blank] said [blank], that was so [blank]?

It's to mock Ariel for being black. Shocked the flock came in so late.
I think at first it was some dumb joke, but it was used in response to the casting controversy.
I didn't realize Scuttle was played by Awkwafina! That's pretty cool. Is Scuttle going to be female in this movie, or do they just have a female actor?
Ooh, then we are in for a treat! Those are two of the best Disney songwriters, right there!
That's cool. I'm personally waiting to hear the full song when I see the actual movie. Same case with the other songs.
It didn't come in late- they're just louder now. The new trailer brought their attention to it.
I saw the trailer earlier and it looks great! I think this could end up being better than a lot of the other remakes! I liked everything about it except for the animal designs (Flounder is the worst; he's too realistic for any words to come out of him and yet they do and it's weird). It still looks a bit dark for my taste, but it's better than before at least. I'm happy to say I'm more excited about this movie than ever! (Let's just hope it's one of Disney's last remakes.)
