Well, I first viewed this only some weeks ago and was pleasently surprised of its quality.
This doesn't give away too much of the film--and they don't bring up the Romeo&Juliet love story aspect, so it's left for a nice surprise to those who appreciate them basing the first movie off of a shakespearean play (among the Bible stories.) They point out intriguingly the Outsiders and how they become such, and how Kovu tries to steal his way into Simba's pride with revenge on his mind. They don't even let us know if Kovu was into it all along. And also, they don't let us know yet in this, if Kovu is Sca'rs son for real.
And another huge plus and kudos for them is that they used the cub from the end of the first film in this trailer, making the point that it and Kiara are meant to be the same cub in essence. They obviously wanted to redesign the cub for the film itself, so they needed to combine the original design to Kiara in some other official material--hence, the official trailer! Nice!
I find this trailer very intriguing and well done!
