SDCC: Adventure Time finale trailer unveiled
By Drew Koenig
Adventure Time stopped by SDCC for one final time and released a finale trailer and clip to prepare for the end in September.
The end is nigh. This is the last SDCC panel for Adventure Time before the series airs its final three episodes. While they did reveal that the series finale would be airing on Cartoon Network on September 3, a pair of videos were unleashed to get us all into the mood.
One a trailer and another a clip from the finale, they certainly accomplish that goal and shut up, you’re crying.
The trailer certainly gets into the nostalgic territory that feels so necessary for a long-running show just as this, flipping through moments from past seasons of the show and “Bacon Pancakes” featuring prominently. It doesn’t tell us much more about the finale than we knew before this.

The clip follows along a similar line and looks to be from the early minutes of the finale that
introduces the presence of Normal Man, Betty, and Maja the Sky Witch in the periphery. There’s also Princess Bubblegum’s war council, which includes Marceline, Lady Rainicorn, Lumpy Space
Princess, Flame Princess, Cinnamon Bun, Huntress Wizard, the Duke of Nuts, Slime Princess, Colonel Candycorn, and Lemongrab.
Nostalgic does seem like right word to describe both the trailer and the clip, as well as the panel itself that they came out of. This is a good-bye (for now) to this show. Maybe it will go out on satisfying note; maybe it won’t.
Regardless, we’ll always have the show itself and that’s the true takeaway from all of this.
