Leaked trailer for live-action Attack On Titan movie

It's part of a Japanese talk show, so there's Japanese writing and a weird little reaction cam in the corner.

I'm not sure what I was expecting from this, but I think it looks awesome. Should definitely tide us over until the Manga and Anime return. Hope it's good.

I have only seen a handful of episodes, but really enjoyed the show and premise. I am shocked that it is getting a theatrical release so soon. If this goes well this could be Japan's new Godzilla.

We now live in a world where "leaked" is apparently the same as "intentionally shown on television".

Like most totally literal Japanese fiction adaptions it sticks so close to the source material that it just ends up looking like a fan movie. I really like AoT and I think the effects look cool, but I can't get over the way the actors look like cosplayers. Also, what will the movie cover? There's no clean break in the first season of the anime or in the manga, so where would it end and not feel like a bad ending? Skeptical.

Yeah, definitely take "leaked" with a pinch of salt.

The end of season 1 of the Anime would make a good ending for part 1, but I doubt they'd manage to adapt that much material into one movie. Maybe end when
