The premise of this movie sounds very interesting.
The sequel takes place six months after the first movie. Dory is living a quiet peaceful life, dealing with her forgetfulness. On a class trip with Nemo to see the manta rays migrate back home, Dory feels homesick since she doesn’t know where she comes from.
“The movie will be mostly set at the California Marine Biology Institute, a huge complex of sea life rehabilitation and aquarium, where Dory was born and raised,” Morris said. “We will get to meet new characters, like an octopus, sea lions, a beluga whale, among others.

http://www.slashfilm.com/finding-dory-d23/The story begins with Dory living with Marlin and Nemo on their reef. But a minor trauma triggers a memory she can’t quite pin down. It’s something important… she doesn’t quite know what. Something about feeding time? No… oh wait, it was about churros! No, that’s not it either. We realize Dory is having a nightmare. “Don’t cry, Lilly,” she says in her sleep. We see that Dory is sleep-swimming, saying something about Monterey, California.
The next day, she remembers something. Nemo thinks her instincts are trying to get her to go home, to migrate, something he learned in school. Dory has a vision of her parents, realizes they don’t know where she is. While Marlin thinks going all the way to Monterey is a bad idea, Dory appeals to his sense of familial responsibility. Wouldn’t he know what it is like to feel fear about the safety of a family member?
The clip shown at D23 ends with Nemo pleading to his father, “dad you can get us all the way across the ocean, right?” Marlin responds, “No… but I know a guy.”
Once the characters get to Monterey Marine Life Institute, we’ll meet a whole new cast of characters. One is Hank, an octopus who helps Dory in some way, voiced by Ed O’Neill.
I have to agree. The jokes fell flat and nothing was interesting or exciting about it. The theme song from the original felt out of place like it was shoehorned just for nostalgia's sake. Frankly, I would have much preferred an original little short as a teaser instead of scenes from the film awkwardly spliced together.Lady Cluck wrote:Hopefully the movie is better than that boring clip.
