Doesn't matter if he wasn't rioting, he was there at the rally and supporting it. That's an endorsement.

If was at just the protest and not supporting rioting, then it comes off as just removing someone for politics and not actual wrong doing. Which is a dick move.

Oh yeah supporting a blatant act of terrorism and insurrection is totally just some "politics".

There is a difference between being at a protest and what the rioters did. If that is the case then that means protesters at the BLM were endorsing the rioters there? Seriously, a lot of the people there were not with the rioters. And yes they did support the recount, but saying anyone at the protest automatically supported the rioting is nonsense.

> Admittedly, I'd find it funny if they literally open an episode on Jimmy getting arrested and that's how they write him out.

the episode writes itself, cue Gene trying to act a defence lawyer that winds up getting Bob in Jail

firewriter I'm going to suggest not trying to debate the riot in here because thats getting off topic

Or, since they still need Jimmy Jr as a love interest for Tina, just have Jimmy Jr's parents become Invisible Parents .

Well it's not like Jimmy's wife ever shows up...though I can't remember if he's divorced or not. You forget a lot of things when a show runs for more than ten seasons.

I believe he's divorced. When he's reunited with his kids at the end of "The Belchies", he's surprised and admits he thought they were with their mother.

Makes sense. Fits the whole "Jimmy is the anti-Bob" thing. Bob loves his wife and they still have a passionate marriage, Jimmy is...well, y'know.

Legit tho, Bob and Linda are a great TV couple, you almost never see that in adult animated comedies.

By the way, the 20th Century Studios website quietly updated with a cast and synopsis for the film:

“The Bob’s Burgers Movie” is an animated, big-screen, musical comedy-mystery-adventure based on the long-running Emmy®-winning series. The story begins when a ruptured water main creates an enormous sinkhole right in front of Bob's Burgers, blocking the entrance indefinitely and ruining the Belchers’ plans for a successful summer. While Bob and Linda struggle to keep the business afloat, the kids try to solve a mystery that could save their family's restaurant. As the dangers mount, these underdogs help each other find hope and fight to get back behind the counter, where they belong.

Hmm, wasn't really feeling that one. Might need a second trailer to sway me.

Wonder when we might get a second trailer. I haven't seen any further promotion for the movie since the trailer dropped.

[up] I, a future person, come to present you a second trailer for this film:

[up]This gives a better view of what the show is about. Some good lines and intriguing clips, plus a slight hint of plot. Can't wait for Memorial Day weekend.

One thing the trailers aren't highlighting yet is the songs. The director has said that it's going to be a musical, but the marketing is still not making it clear that it is. There are some brief clips of choreography in the trailers, but no songs to go with them.

Either they're saving the songs for the film itself or they're not ready yet

Music is usually the last thing added to a film. Most directors prefer having the editing locked down first so the score doesn't need to change if a scene gets longer or shorter during post-production.

Maybe you'd be less disappointed if you stopped expecting things to be Carmen Sandiego movies.

The first six minutes were shown at Wondercon this weekend, and there's a song almost right off the bat.

[up][up]But songs, on the other hand, have to be recorded in advance so the animators can work off the vocals and plan out the choreography. I think the reason the trailers aren't featuring the songs is because the marketing department is wary of advertising the fact that it is a musical. Remember back in 1913 when trailers for Tangled went out of their way to avoid saying that it was a musical? Conventional "wisdom" is that modern audiences don't respond to musicals.
