the new movie promo came out
ok so the second trailer for the backrooms movie came out, and there is a lot i want to talk about so yeah.
at the start of the promo, before Mary walks through the wall and into the backrooms, we see this shot of moving wind chimes. now, these wind chimes are very special, because in the backrooms, wind chimes are supposed to represent Ivan Beck, and we already know how important ivan beck is to the story. some other examples of wind chimes showing up through the series are I Remember, a few songs in the Backrooms OST and Out Of Sync, and the ending of Found Footage 2.
during the part of the promo where Mary enters the backrooms, we can hear Still Life playing in the background.
i just wanted to point out that this shot this neighbourhood reminds me a lot of the dreamcore/weirdcore aesthetic
in this room, we can see a lot of equipment that belongs to async, so either async has been in this room before or these objects could have been generated by the complex and scattered around, kinda like this room in ff3
so, it appears that animals can noclip into the backrooms, as seen with this bird.
in this part of the promo, we can see clark opening a bag filled with what appear to be floppy disks, but the most notable thing in the bag is an async research bag that clark picks up.
this is the same bag that clark found in this little crawl space. this raises some questions, why is this bag here?, who is the async worker that left it there?
the poolrooms are in the movie, which is cool, but it also raises some questions (for me at least). why are there poolrooms in the backrooms, is it just the complex remembering a pool, or does it have a more deeper meaning to it, maybe the poolrooms relate to ivan in some way or maybe its another nod to the ocean, the ocean has been used to describe the complex, and what does a pool have, water just like the ocean so, idk just saying.
another thing to note (besides how messy and dirty it is ) it the giant big head in the wall, now, this isn't the first time we've seen heads or humans clipped into the floor or wall
we've seen this in ff3 and in the backrooms movie trailer, a common theory for this occurence is that these figure in the floors are the complex trying to create humans but failing causes them to either turn into still life, or clip into the ground. so, if we follow this logic, then that giant head in the wall could be a giant still life, and if that's the case, then could there be other giant still life roaming around the complex?
before the end of the promo, we not only see that mary and clark have found each other, but have also found this weird room with a speaker on the wall
it reminds me of the still life room in ff3 with the school speaker, the weird dark hallways, so could this be a still life area?
before the promo ends, we cut through a bunch of rooms which include
a room with blue walls and a window showing a white room with Splendor Sun Paintings and potted plants
a dirty grimmy room with cloth piles, wires, and a dirty async hazmat suit (could have belonged to the async worker on the badge)
Kat running in the same dirty grimmy room while somethings being dragged on the floor (and also what seems to be a blood splatter)
another poolroom area this time with a bathtub, a blue door, some pipes, a plant, and a window casting light.
and the finally we cut to someone opening a door before it cuts to the title card.
so yeah those are all the things i noticed and uhh yeah.

little nods to the dreamcore and poolrooms in the new backrooms promo
even though the movie is based on kanes version of the backrooms, I still like how they referenced some of the other parts of the backrooms community like the poolrooms and this neighbourhood which reminds me a lot of the dreamcore/weirdcore/nostalgiacore aesthetic
