I think I gotta speak to a specifically German fandom for a sec. Three Investigators Fandom, you are allowed to dislike the new movie coming out. However, a few pointers.

• it is obvious that they try to adapt the style and feel of earlier books and episodes rather than the current ones - possibly because they are hoping that if the film is successful they can continue making them, working their way up to the more mature cases that are coming out now

• to literally everyone who is raving on about how "those are not the 3???" - it is a trailer. A trailer. Less than 5 minutes. That is not enough to judge how the entire film will be, but we do get some good glimpses: Justus is a know-it-all with knowledge untypical for a boy his age, Peter is a bit of a scaredy cat, sporty and he gets a bit sassy/salty at Justus at times, and Bob is quite literally shown in the trailer researching something. What else so you want?

• the amount of people who are commenting on the actors baffle me. I have seen some of the most stupid comments. No, Bob having long hair does not make him a girl and no, this film is not a "political gendering" one - also him having long hair is literally canon in the books and audio plays. Another thing that is common is Justus not being thin so how about we don't publicly bodyshame a child for looking the way the character looks?!

• so many people are demanding the VAs dubbing over the child actors and like - that is not gonna work. In the audio plays their voices work because we know just these voices as these characters, but in Live Action, men of about 50 ish dubbing over children would be ridiculous. Plain and simple.

Nobody is saying you gotta like the movie. Nobody is forcing you to watch it. But maybe consider that the books can have multiple adaptions that can each be good in their own right, not to mention that the films are gonna the accessible to Deaf and HoH people which the audioplays are not, and the films are probably gonna help the fanbase grow as they go from seeing the film to reading the books or listening to the audio plays. And finally, we all know the audio plays won't be going on forever. We all know that the day will come that Jens, Oliver and Andreas stop voicing these beloved characters. We also know that even if they found amazing new VAs, the audio plays just wouldn't be the same. If this film is successful though, this might be a way the Three Investigators could live on for at least a little longer after the audio version ended.

Just some food for thought, fueled by some very angry people on Twitter and YouTube. Signed, a person who has been collecting 3??? for ages and who, at nearly 22, is actually quite hyped for this new adaption. It could be shit and then we always have the books and audio plays, but it could end up actually being good too.
