Previews we saw in front of Thor: Ragnorak

The Black Panther - yay!
Star Wars, the Last Jedi - yay!
Pacific Rim 2 - yay!

Jumanji: welcome to the jungle. This looks pretty bad.
The Maze Runner 3: will probably be bad but hey, Dylan O'Brien is in it! I might eventually watch the DVD.
Downsizing: A film where Matt Damon and Kristen Wiig get shruken down for economic / environmental reasons. The trailer made me uncomfortable and I don't really know why.

Downsizing feels as if it should turn into a distopia, but the trailer didn't show much sign of that. Actually, the trailer didn't show any sign of plot or character development, so I suspect it really will turn into some sort of surprise horror/distopia. Could that be what you're picking up on?

Yes, you are absolutely right. It seemed like "oh, a dystopia concept" but then looked like it was hitting comedy notes in the trailer (the giant bottle of vodka, for example). The whole plot seemed to be "some people who decide to become small." Sometimes it's nice when the twist is not revealed, so I suppose I'll see what the reviews have to say.
