Trailer is OUT:
Starts outside Arnold house -- scored by Jim Lange -- it is a look at a lot scenes from the movie.
Mom Dad holding hands... zooms back into the jungle ... class has been selected to go to San Lorenzo... same as where his parents diappears... "Arnold it is not about you finding your paretns it is a class truip" ... quick cuts of all his friends with one line each... Helga becomes a massive helper and has her love locket of Arnold ... then more quick cuts to introduce fan favorites ...
now to the island, which is clearly scary... arnold scales the wall, all the kids are now turning against each other, Helga is mad, then happy... boat blows up... they see a cave drawing with his parents and he asks "Have you seen these people" ... then They find a hidden temple that matches a necklace...
Helga screams in a fit: Yeah, yeah Arnold.... We get it.
There is a lot of nostalgia and call backs.
Fan Q&A
12:48 -- Will we see Gerald and Phoebe reignte their romance...
Craig: Well there was a quick cut in the trailer that you saw it.... they kiss and it will be a storyline.
Oh, also... Nov. 22nd, the day after Thanksgiving it will come up. So get your leftover turkey sandwich then go to the theater.
12:50 -- We finally got to revisit the Jungle, but there was anotehr idea on the internet that puts Helga as a center?
Craig: We are really going way project at a time... what we really want is for this movie to go well and the audiences love it and then go to a season six. We have a ton of ideas for that and that is where we want to go with it.
12:57 -- How much updating did you do to the entire look and feel of teh show?
Craig: With all the technology that we have now we were able to quickly update pretty much everything, we kept most everything familiar. We were able to make the cast a little taller and fit their space a little more but we wanted it to be seamless.
Will we see more with Arnold and Helga?
Craig: Oh, yes for sure. This is in continuity. People sometimes forget we had two episodes after the Movie and so Arnold knows what he knows about Helga and Helga is getting frustrated with how Arnold cant articulate how he feels. It is something that I really liked about the boys. I wanted to keep them dense and not really nowing what to do with girls but kind of knowing a little or thinking they knew a little but also being more interested in go-karts.
Mom gets to the mic and goes on an agent rant trying to get her son a gig... audience grows very tired of it. Not a good way to wind this down.
