Trailer

  • The trailer opens with Orion Pax asking D-16 how long he thinks they'll be stuck in a room together. D-16 initially says he's not talking to Orion, only to comment on how screwed they are after a Beat. Orion even lampshades it.
  • B-127 introduces himself and says he's working on some nicknames, giving "Badassatron" as an example. D-16 bluntly tells him they'll stick to calling him "B".
    B-127: I'm actually w-working on some nicknames. The one I'm floatin' right now is, um, "Badassatron", which is actually pronounced [straightens up and adopts a deep gravelly voice] "Badassatron".
  • D-16 questions why Orion brought jetpacks to the surface with them. The trailer immediately cuts to the two of them using the jetpacks to participate in the Iacon 5000 and swerving to avoid a flung competitor.
    D-16: IF WE SURVIVE THIS, I'M GONNA KILL YOU!
    Orion Pax: I accept those terms!
  • Elita-1 commenting on the surface's beauty while riding on the top of a train is immediately juxtaposed with her and the group watching as a robotic springbok is blown up by a laser beam. The trailer cuts back to the four of them back on the train and staring in shock for a Beat, followed by B-127 booking it in the other direction with a very goofy-looking run.
  • After they get t-cogs, Orion Pax suggests that they all transform on the count of three as they run for the entrance of the cave in joy. He barely manages to get "one" out before they all run off the face of the cliff the cave's in and fall.
  • Transforming proves to not be an intuitive process. Orion's first attempt goes well until his head gets sucked into his chest, leaving him running about blind and flailing. Meanwhile, B-127's arms dangle out of his car chassis and he doesn't have wheels, which leads to him plowing into the ground... and then his wheels pop out.
  • B-127's battle mask automatically slides down to protect his face from an incoming punch by a drone, which he didn't know he even had. In his excitement about the mask, the drone sneaks up behind him for a second shot... only for B to unwittingly slice part of its head off with in-built knives he also didn't know he had.
    B-127: Whoa-ho-ho! I got a battle mask! It appeared when this guy [gestures, bisecting the drone’s head] — knife hands?! I have knife hands!
  • The end of the first trailer has B-127 demolish a command post in a badass fashion... only for Orion and Elita to tell him that he just destroyed the good guy command post. B-127 later tries to deny he destroyed the door and asks two of the staff members to testify. And they do... because they're scared out of their wits because he STILL HAS HIS KNIFE HANDS POINTED AT THEM. And he's blissfully unaware of it!
