Hollywood is more inclusive now! It is so cool to see a little person getting a lead role that is not a comedic caricature.

Do I need to watch the original movie to understand the plot?

So Stoke! Always been a fan and this property is so ahead of its time. It deserves the current audience!
Willow was so forward-thinking. Even now, the original film looks fantastic. In terms of production, amazing characters, great score, and beautiful tale, this film is epic in size. Watching this new trailer almost made me cry. Willow was an important part of our childhood, and this looks incredible!

Is this a series? I was expecting them to make a movie, but wow! We’re becoming spoiled, because this looks fantastic! I’m ecstatic!This series has sparked my curiosity more than the Lord of the Rings series, and based on the trailer, it appears to be even more entertaining than anticipated.

Please don’t base the story on the sequel books and I am crossing my fingers and toes. Because if they are, the opening scene entails the death of the majority of the cast.

Disappointed! I thought when the title says Willow, its going to be a Buffy Spin off and I love the character Willow. This is not the Willow I know.
