'Tom and Jerry' trailer receives major backlash by netizens, fans call it 'awful'

Tom and Jerry, one of the most prominent childhood cartoon shows has now bought the Disney bait of making live-action renditions of previously famous IPs to ring the nostalgia bell amid fans and general audience. Warner Bros had previously announced the film back in 2019 with the release date set for 2021. The trailer for the same was launched recently which has received major backlash from fans all around the world. The situation as of now is similar to the film Sonic: The Hedgehog's trailer when it had initially released and caused havoc amid longtime fans who did not like the treatment of the character. Check out the trailer below - 

The latest iteration of the Tom and Jerry characters does not do a complete injustice to the originality and keeps the animation true to 2D. But, it brings those characters to the real 3-dimensional world and puts them together. However, the end-product, as seen in the trailer, looks to be a confusing iteration of the IP which does not know what audience its actually aiming at.

Tom and Jerry trailer reaction by fans 

A Twitter user by the name @MasterofBillys took to the comment section of the trailer and wrote - 'The fact it takes place in the real world, has no cohesive story except for Tom and Jerry fighting like they've always done, and the fact that this trailer is stuffed to the brim with pop and rap songs...I can say I don't have high hopes at all for this movie'. Whereas, another user by the name @MToonster24 wrote - 'Part of me felt the humans would take away focus from Tom and Jerry whom the audience would be coming for, but this leans more towards the toons getting the real focus as they do what they were designed to do. Applying their antics to real world New York seems to work too.' Check out their reactions below -
