Dreamworks Voltron: Legendary Defender Full Trailer Premiere

The time has come to see if you are going to be down with this new incarnation of Voltron...probably with just one look! As is the case with most things that cause flashbacks, if the first trailer for a project doesn't hit the right notes, use a pleasing art style or nod heavily to the original work, fans will begin the slagging. Ohh....so much slagging to be had. Let's see if the new Voltron is going to spark cheers or hate mail from 12 year old Minecraft trolls...



I LIKE IT!! Looks like Cowboy Bebop..fun like Dreamworks Dragons. I could do without the computery transformation. I've always hated when they mix cold CGI with fun drawn (at least seemingly) animation. Awesome, shadowy Batman pursues a criminal down an alley and then a CGI Batmobile whips around a corner...always takes me right out of the action. I will ignore ALL that, seeing as how this show is created by the awesome folks who made the Avatar series for Nickelodeon. I expect greatness...and I require moooore. Gimme.

The universe’s greatest protector will rise again in the all-new series DREAMWORKS VOLTRON LEGENDARY DEFENDER, premiering June 10, exclusively on Netflix.  Witness the rebirth of the legend with this ambitious reimagining of the fan-favorite science-fiction saga, promising galaxies worth of action, comedy, and adventure, as good battles evil in an intergalactic war ten thousand years in the making. These series will launch with an hour-long origin story called “The Rise of Voltron,” and will be followed by 10 episodes.



While this bold new series will be instantly recognizable to Voltron’s legions of dedicated fans, Executive Producer Joaquim Dos Santos and Co-Executive Producer Lauren Montgomery (The Legend of Korra, Avatar: The Last Airbender) have re-engineered core elements of the original show using all of the twenty-first-century technology and storytelling innovation at their disposal. With a killer mix of old and new animation techniques, creative transformations of the characters and designs and inventive plot expansions, this fresh Voltron saga will leave kids and super fans hungry for each new episode. Like the newly designed Voltron, which bears its old battle scars with pride, DREAMWORKS VOLTRON LEGENDARY DEFENDER honors the show’s venerated history while amplifying its strengths and scope tenfold.
