This holiday season, get ready for an action-packed, all-star, rainbow-colored Trolls family reunion like no other as Anna Kendrick and Justin Timberlake return for the new chapter in DreamWorks Animation's blockbuster musical franchise: Trolls Band Together!https://www.linkedin.com/posts/thelaoffice_connect-with-universal-pictures-to-get-involved-activity-7011397070204936192-gUpK
After two films of true friendship and relentless flirting, Poppy (Kendrick) and Branch (Timberlake) are now officially, finally, a couple. As they grow closer, Poppy discovers that Branch has a secret past. He was once part of her favorite boyband phenomenon, BroZone, with his four brothers: Floyd (Sivan), John Dory (André), Spruce (Diggs) and Clay (Cudi). BroZone disbanded when Branch was still a baby, as did the family, and Branch hasn’t seen his brothers since. But when Branch’s bro Floyd is kidnapped for his musical talents by a pair of nefarious pop-star villains — Velvet (Schumer) and Veneer (Rannells) — Branch and Poppy embark on a harrowing and emotional journey to reunite the other brothers and rescue Floyd from a fate even worse than pop-culture obscurity.

In the past (pre-Trolls), BroZone are about to go on and have 1 minute until their show time. Baby Branch peaks at the crowd. John Dory is excited and declares Brozone will make "Boy Band history tonight". Spruce is doing push ups and John dory tells him to do 100 more before show time. Clay questions why he has to keep wearing Funderpants, but John Dory tells him its because their fun. Floyd tells John Dory to relax as his stressing out, John Dory replies to note that his stressed because its the first show of the tour. John Dory states they promised the fans they'd reach the perfect family harmony tonight, an act that can shatter diamond and Floyd points out John Dory is making Baby Branch nervous, which causes John Dory to say his not allowed to be nervous.
Floyd goes to reassure Branch on the show, telling him he has the pre-show jitters and that he remembers his with his brothers when he gets them. Branch states that no one has done perfect family harmony before, but John Dory states thats because they have to be perfect. As the brothers chatter the 10 second warning hits. John Dory tells them to follow his lead and then is asked what happens if they fail. He ensures them they cannot fail because then their nothing and to just follow his lead.
BroZone enters the stage and are introduced individually. They begin the song Perfect and everything is going fine. They begin to glow, when John Dory notes means its happening. As the brothers continue, the others rush to follow John Dory's lead. However, a small misbalance causes their currently formation to fall apart, and Clay, Spruce, Floyd and John Dory fall in a heap. Branch states that he "ruined everything" as he blames himself for the mishap.
Out of concert, John Dory, Spruce and Clay argue over things, with John Dory claiming that they didn't follow his lead. Spruce confronts him and states its because of his lead their concert fell apart, but John dory states that thats the only way to achieve perfect family harmony. Spruce states maybe the don't want to do it, while Clay backs up Spruce as they don't want to be perfect anymore. Spruce says he is leaving taking his abs with him and Clay tosses the Funderpants at him. Clay tells him he wants to be taken seriously and will find Trolls who do. John Dory tells them he quits and going solo, thus he leaves their pod. Spruce and Clay then leave and all Branch can do is watch. Floyd begs Clay and Spruce to not leave, but after they do, Branch blames himself and Floyd realizes he has to leave too and talks to Branch. He leaves Branch with their grandma, giving Branch his leafy vest, Branch states when he returns they will make a bunker together with their brothers. Branch can only say good bye as he watches the last of his brothers leave promising to return.
In the current timeline, Branch is listening to the song "Perfect", Poppy interrupts his reflection and Branch quicky excuses himself stating he was missing his grandma. Poppy states she loves BroZone and Branch is suprised but covers up the reason he is listening to the record. The pair head out to the wedding of Bridget and King Gristle Jr..
Poppy and Branch goes out of the Troll Pod to sing Let's Get Married as they prepare for the wedding. Meanwhile, Poppy helps Bridget get ready along with Satin & Chenille. As the medley ends, Bridget enters the ceremony wearing balloons shaped into clouds, making her float towards Gristle in the sky. Poppy states Bridget is like a sister to her as she thanks Poppy. The balloons pop revealing Bridget is wearing a white jumpsuit and roller skates and Gristle comments she is just like an Angel. His Aunt Smead tells him he still has time to back down.
The ceremony begins but is soon interrupted by someone. This turns out to be John Dory who has returned from his twenty year departure and is Branch's long lost brother. Branch denies having a brother as he was abandoned by him long ago. Poppy is shocked to learn Branch was "Baby Branch" and in her favorite band BroZone and everyone is watching the scene unfold in awe. King Peppy meanwhile gets nervous about unknown family members. Gristle is starting to question things as this is interrupting their wedding, but Bridget want things to continue as she is excited about the revelations going on. When Branch was in the Band he was known as "Bitty B", and since Branch no longer wears glasses and a diaper this is why Poppy never realized, and Branch comments he also had a falsetto made of gold but its all in the past. Branch notes BroZone stopped being his brothers the moment they all walked out. John Dory claimed that he did return but no one was there and he didn't know Branch was even alive until the events of Trolls World Tour.
Branch states John Dory is only here because he needs something and Poppy tries to say his is here because his Branch's brother, John Dory then backs up Branch's statement but wants to be heard out. It turns out he received a letter from Floyd saying he is trapped by superstars Velvet and Veneer. John dory travelled to Mount Rageous and met up with Floyd who thought he'd never see any of his brothers again. However, John Dory was unable to free Floyd, because the glass bottle he was in was made of diamond and can only be shattered by Perfect Family Harmony. As Velvet and Veneer are heard returning, John Dory escapes.
Branch upon hearing the story is not impressed as it involves something BroZone tried once and failed to achieve causing their split in the first place. Poppy says their in and Branch points out she doesn't have any siblings so doesn't understand whats going on. Poppy states if she did have a sister they'd be best friends and King Peppy looks nervously on as Poppy talks about what having a sister would be like and states is she was in trouble she would do anything to rescue her. Branch notes that if he had to save any of his brothers, Floyd would be the one he would run off to save, though the others would be questionable if he would. As Poppy gets excited as she didn't hear a "no", their ride turns up. Gristle states he would like to get married to Bridget already. The two are married and the Trio of Trolls set off as Bridget and Gristle set off on their honeymoon.
Velvet and Veneer are in "The Bop On Top" interview, Veneer claims Velvet is his inspiration while Velvet claims she is her own. The two talk about their raise to fame in just 2 months. The two are up for the Lifer Award for their achievements. Their last concert is that weekend at the Rage Dome, and while Velvet brags their achievements are a result of hard work and talent, the reality is shown while they are in their own recording booth that the two can barely sing and are talentless.
They leave the booth, eat into their assistant Crimp and order her to stand in the corner. Velvet takes talent from Floyd despite him pleading he has barely enough talent left for a Christmas Alarm or a one off National Anthem cover. Velvet sprays herself with Floyd's talent after noting she can always kiss their careers good bye and turn to charity funding raising. She starts to sing perfectly and notes how closely the pair are to having everything they thought they deserved, after noticing Veneer is acting moody Veneer points to Floyd who is having the life sucked out of him. Veneer is concerns as they barely have enough Trolls to get through dress rehearsal, but Velvet has already covered them - it turns out the letter from Floyd is actually from Velvet who plans to lure in and capture the entirety of BroZone. Hearing Velvet and Veneer's intentions to capture his family, Floyd demands the duo to leave his brothers alone. The two go off to buy matching yachts while Floyd sings and Crimp plays the ukulele.
Now leaving Bergen Town, Branch announces the beginning of "Operation Family Harmony". Tiny invites himself along as the driver claiming to no longer be baby and presenting his driver's license. Branch presents his clue board and Poppy gets distracted by the pictures of BroZone in various outfits. John Dory states they don't need Branch's board and presents a postcard by Spruce. Branch scoffs at it until they find the exact Island in the picture (words from the postcard and all). John Dory drives off a cliff into the ocean.
Meanwhile Bridget is shown driving a low rider motorcycle to a water park with Gristle as they enter their honeymoon.
Poppy, Branch and John Dory have arrived as Vacay Island where every day is a vacation. As they make their way through the islands flora, Poppy says who wrote most of the songs for BroZone, which John Dory claims credit for. As they travel, Branch talks about his experiences with BroZone and Poppy talks about how lucky Branch is to have a brother. Branch upsets Poppy by telling her if she wants it she can have his brother. John Dory bumps into a Vacaytioner who greets them as fellow rock climbers. As they explore the island they find Spruce surfing.
They chase after Spruce at his work place as Spruce does his job. Spruce mistakes John Dory, Poppy and Branch as fans of BroZone and Joh Dory says their not fans but his brothers, Spruce turns excited and runs past John Dory to Branch and tosses him much to Branch's annoyance. Spruce still treats Branch like a baby and Branch puts his foot down as he tells him that he is now grown up and doesn't like this sort of thing. Spruce also explains he goes by the name of "Bruce" now his a father. He introduces them to Brandy his wife and business partner and explains despite their size differences they "made it work". His kids then appear (only Bruce Jr. is named).
John Dory tries to explain the situation but the moment he mentions family harmony, Spruce looses interest. Upon hearing Floyd is being held hostage, Spruce tells them to call the authorities and John dory says they can free him, thus needing them. With encouragement from Poppy, Spruce's kids begin to chant "prove it" when Spruce claims to have been in THE BAND. Branch is asked if his joining, and gets the same "prove it" treatment.
They sing BroZone's Back and Poppy joins in, after the song John Dory and Spruce admit that it felt good to sing together again. Spruce asks Brandy for premission to go rescue Floyd and she agrees so long as he covers for her the next month on her girls yoga retreat. She tells him he should leave before he gets pink eye.
Back at Mount Rageous, Crimp is getting Velvet and Veneer ready and present Velvet with her new outfit, which she had been told was for making smoothies, only for Velvet to instantly reveal its for hiding Floyd in plain sight. That way she can continue to steal his talent without anyone ever suspecting. Velvet is warned that this could kill Floyd and Veneer shows concern for the first time. She talks about how they were before the fame and fortune, but Veneer corrects her that they were the children of Dentists. Velvet doesn't want to go back to being a nobody, stating when she met Veneer he was a drooling mess, which Veneer notes was because he was a baby. Veneer is not prepared to give up everything he has and backs down, meanwhile Velvet notes that Crimp is smarter then she thought so doesn't trust her anymore and throws her in the closet.
Floyd pleas with Veneer to spare him, but Veneer likes his way of life too much, even though his fortune is costing him his life. After taking more of Floyd's talent, he tossed him over his shoulder. When the glass bottle settles, Floyd notices more of his body has become crystal. Crimp also notes her wifi doesn't work in the closet.
Spruce is listening to Velvet and Veneer and notes his kids love them, that their "totally a Veneer family". John Dory points out they are stealing their talent from Floyd and Spruce notes its going to be hard to separate the art from the artist. Branch gets annoyed as now John Dory and Poppy are actually using his clue board he made. Poppy notes the underwear Clay is wearing while trying to figure out where he is. Branch breaks some glass and finds the Funderdraws, stating he has no idea why John Dory kept them. Rhonda is given a whiff of the underwear and has the scent.
John Dory then tells Tiny Diamond to hit the "Hustle Button". He does so. The group ends up flying through the "Hustle Dimension" and becoming Hustle Man before landing at their destination. This is an abandoned Bergen mini-golf course called "Hole N' Fun". They question if they are at the right place, as their trusting an Armadillo Bus.
They enter the grounds and are met with a scary clown feature who demands to know why they are trespassing. This scares everyone except Branch who states he is looking for Clay. Upon realizing their Trolls, Viva appears excited to meet other Trolls. So excited that Poppy is overwhelmed and she asks Branch is this is how others feel when they meet her, and Branch replies "yes". Though Branch doesn't think they'll find Clay here, Viva soon treats them as guests and the other Putt Putt Trolls appears around her. She orders them to get food and drink, especially fries and milkshakes to celebrate. She braids Poppy's hair. Spruce says the fries would go great with a burger, but everyone panics and Viva explains it sounds too similar to Bergen so they try not to use it as it threatens everyone.
Clay reveals himself, and he greets Spruce, but shuns John dory when they meet. Viva explains she deals with the fun side of things at their village while Clay deals with the boring things, which he enjoys. Clay then spots Branch and makes a fuss of him while Branch protests for the 3rd time. Branch introduces Poppy and she asks him to do the Rusty Robot dance, but Clay now only does the "Well oiled Robot" and thats no fun. John Dory claims Clay is the same old Clay, but Clay protests he is not the same. He then asks the others where Floyd is.
The situation is explained to him. Clay tells them, like Spruce before him, to call the authorities after hearing only perfect family harmony can save him, and John Dory confirms his being held in a diamond prisoned. Clay is prepared to go along if only to manage the groups expenses. Though Branch wants to set off right away, Viva stops them. Upon hearing a "ding" from Poppy's Hug Time Bracelet, she automatically goes into hug time and notices that Poppy's bracelet is familiar as she had one just like that as a kid. It fits Viva perfectly when she tries it on and even dings for her. Vivas Poppy for her name again and Viva asks if King Peppy is her father, when Poppy says "yes" Viva is filled with excitement noting that Poppy is still alive. Confused its then revealed Viva is Poppy's sister, explaining how Poppy got Viva's hug time bracelet reacted to her.
Poppy is shocked by notes so like dad. Poppy and Viva sing, BroZone's (minus Floyd) sings It Takes Two together as back up. Viva and Poppy spend some time together to get to know each other. Poppy has a million questions and Viva talks about her time in the Troll Tree. Viva throws off the full story, but Clay meanwhile explains the reality to his Brothers (and Tiny Diamond, who is being carried by Spruce at this point).
Clay explains not everyone made it out of the tree and while Poppy figures out some details by herself, Viva is very reluctant to tell her, as Clay explains the full story. The night they escaped, some of the Trolls got left behind at the Tree, while Viva and a few others came back to fight them off, a boulder blocked their passage back to the main group of Trolls. Peppy went back to get the lost Trolls, but only found Viva's hug-time bracelet. Peppy back in Bergen Town finally spills the beans - to Mr. Dinkles stating he should have told Poppy about Viva, but the event had been traumatic for him also and he was heart broken, feeling like a failure as a King and a father. Viva rebuilt the Trolls home at the mini-golf course, and often thought about leaving, but the fear caused by the event caused her to be too scared and frightened to leave to go looking for her father and sister.
Poppy has to unpack this and wants to leave it to the journey on the way to Mount Rageous, but then Viva reveals she is not going - nor is Poppy. Clay is trying to escape with his brothers before Viva notices, but when Branch goes to get Poppy Clay tells him Viva isn't going to let her go and they need to leave now. Viva, however, confronts Clay and the other Putt Putt Trolls close the gate. Viva is confronted by Poppy who reveals none of them are leaving because its not safe. Poppy asks if its to do with the Bergens and notes their friends (as of Trolls). Viva doesn't believe her. Poppy reveals Bridget, who she at this point has been talking to Viva about is a Bergen and their best friends and that Bridget is like a sister. Branch chimes in with his own story of his Bunker, trying to reason with Viva about fear.
At that moment while she is distracted, Clay opens the gate since no one is paying attention to him, stating he doesn't want to loose Floyd. Viva runs past the threshold of the mini-golf course, but steps back as she cannot bring herself to leave its safety for long. She pleas with Poppy to stay, but Poppy cannot. She asks Viva to come, back she cannot either. So Viva closes the gate, Poppy leaves a scrapbook of her and Bridget's adventures behind.
At Mount Rageous, as show time closes and BroZone is a no-show, Veneer proposes to Velvet they should practice and work for it. Floyd pretends to be dead until the duo go to flush him down the toilet. Ceasing the moment the two are distracted, Floyd makes a break for it, but no one hears his shouts of help. Velvet orders Veneer to chase down Floyd, since Crimp is locked in the closet. He does so, and grabs Floyd. Floyd makes another attempt to plea to Veneer. Floyd points out Velvet's abuse, but when she catches up to Veneer she manipulates him with insincere praises. He falls for it and is told to tell Crimp to hire a new assistant. He orders Crimp to do so.
Elsewhere, BroZone gets to work preparing for their rescue. They wear their old attire, Branch even puts on his old diaper. John Dory automatically stops the routine and says its not working, he points out the things the brothers are doing wrong trying to make them perfect again, touching old wounds that caused the band to break up. John Dory is accused of trying to make them perfect again, noting they changed, meanwhile John Dory notes he isn't allowed to change. The fight continues until its revealed that after they save Floyd they all have no intentions to stick around.
Branch finally puts his foot down upon hearing their only going to break up once more and not attempt to be a family. Branch tells Tiny to stop and pull over. He finally speaks out when Spruce tells him not to be a baby, Branch states that they hate John Dory for how he treats them, but then hypocritically treat him like a baby. He states he stopped being a baby the day they all walked out and when Grandma Rosiepuff was eaten he had no one left. Angry, he tosses a picture on the floor and states this time his the one walking out on them.
Poppy picks up the picture revealing the Fun Bunker (Branch's Survival Bunker he currently lives in) and that it was built for when they came home originally. The 3 elder brothers are shocked and left processing everything, including their Grandma being eaten.
Outside Rhonda, Branch is comforted by Poppy who chases after him, and Branch finally talks like Poppy wanted him to do early in the movie as he reveals that he thought she'd leave him like everyone else, she states she isn't going anywhere without him. They go to go forward and Tiny Diamond follows, the trio head out to save Floyd without John Dory, Clay and Spruce.
Elsewhere, Gristle and Bridget are riding on Bridget's motorcycle commenting on how Gristle had been kicked out of the Water Park. They stop and pull over when they smell French Fries, discovering the old Hole N' Fun. They are soon attacked by Viva and the Putt Putt Trolls who don't see the threat of the Trolls due to being friendly with them and comments she didn't think they'd both be tied up this Honeymoon.
At the Rage Dome, Poppy, Branch and Tiny scale the walls to get inside. They make their way to Floyd. Branch is concerned with Floyd as he is very pale and most of his color has drained from him by this point. Floyd is happy to see Branch and Branch is happy Branch is finally called "a man" by one of his brother's. Floyd tells them to get out before their captured.
Attention is drawn to the doorway as Velvet and Veneer return, having captured the rest of BroZone and Rhonda. Rhonda is locked in the closet with Crimp. Though the brothers are happy to see Floyd, they soon argue over John Dory being easily tricked. Veneer is pleaded with by Floyd again, but now he has all members of BroZone (being unaware of Branch's existence) and has now imprisoned them too in diamond bottles. They leave and Branch and Poppy loose their chance to save Floyd and now have lost all members of BroZone.
They open the closet and meet Crimp who gives them a hug.
Gristle and Bridget meanwhile are put to the death by the Trolls and Bridget asks if its wierd if they make out, Gristle responds it would be wierd if they didn't. The Trolls are disturbed by this. Just as the pair are about to be crushed, Viva stops the machine and confronts Bridget, asking her if she is the same person in Poppy's scrapbook, she identifies Poppy as her best friend. Bridget automatically considers Viva her best friend. Viva realizes she has made a mistake, Gristle says he won't press charges, Bridget says she doesn't think thats what Viva is talking about and she confirms it. Bridget offers to let Viva to walk towards her mouth if she is afraid. Viva is just going to release them.
At the Rage Dome, Velvet and Veneer arrive. As they go to enter the Dome, they are stopped by Rhonda, Crimp, Branch and Poppy. Branch demands his brothers back. Poppy calls the pair phoneys and everyone grasps.
The two escape with Rhonda in pursuit. The pair take their act on the road, the Trolls Tiny, Branch and Poppy follow but are blocked by the amount of fans following Velvet and Veneer. Branch takes over from Tiny driving. he passes back to Tiny, they reach the End of the Road. Velvet and Veneer escape on their yacht, as they drain BroZone of their talent, Floyd is nearly his end. They use Hustle Man to reach the boat but he drops them in the river.
They are caught by Bridget and Gristle, with Viva along for the ride. Viva apologises for her actions. Bridget catches up to the yacht. They leap but fail to catch up so Gristle throws Rhonda who in turn spits out the Trolls onto the boat. They rescue John Dory and Spruce who trip up Velvet. While trying to stomp on them, Branch and Poppy are tossed over board but bounce back thanks to Rhonda. They rescue Clay.
As Velvet and Veneer finish their song, Velvet offers an encore, Veneer realizes that at this point Floyd won't last half a song. She begins to sing and drains Floyd. Branch notes Poppy said to Viva a short while ago they don't need to be perfect, and Branch notes they can do the same. The brothers agree to follow Branchs lead this time.
As Velvet goes to sing, Crimp cuts the sound of the microphone, giving BroZone the chance to sing Better Place. As they sing, they are joined by Viva and Poppy, and together BroZone achieves Perfect Family Harmony, while Floyd joins in to give his last effort to free them all from their diamond prisons. Though free, Floyd has given his last talent and is not responding. The four remaining brothers gather around them. However, because of his brothers, Floyd still has some life in him.
Finally Veneer sees the error of his ways and confuses he and Velvet are frauds. This shocks the other Mount Rageons and he admits the pair have been torturing little Trolls. Veneer confesses most of this was Velvet's doing but he still went along. They are promptly arrested for their various crimes - Troll Knapping, Troll Torture, Fraud and Tax Evasion. Veneer accepts his fate and the two are taken away.
Poppy asks Branch how he feels. Branch is happy and Poppy says to whoa and slow down, they celebrate.
The Trolls return to Vacay Island with Gristle and Bridget included, Viva is reunited with Peppy. As BroZone reveals their about to go on stage, Kismet appears and Branch reveals he was in their band also. The two Boybands then performs "Better Place" together. Later, Poppy and Viva later joined BroZone under Branch's proposal as honorary members and then sings Family in the movie's ending.
In the mid-credits scene, Tiny Diamond was seen relaxing while explaining how he enjoyed his journey.

While replying to a birthday wish request, Kevan Shorey noted that he had just finished a scene involving Poppy and Branch.https://twitter.com/KevanShorey/status/1563385261538430979 He later explained that what he meant was the basics of the scene were done, so further members of the movie's production team were now going to be brought in to complete the scene, including fuzz, lighting and effects. He also stated that by then, Poppy and Branch had what was their "temporary hair".https://twitter.com/KevanShorey/status/1563896201891946496 Furthermore, he confirmed that the audio of the scene was already done, as he couldn't start work without audio recordings.https://twitter.com/KevanShorey/status/1563980694455349248 The tweets Kevan posted were removed later.

=== 2023 ===
In March 2023, Universal Studios took part in the 'French Licensing Day & Licensing International Awards'. The result was a number of franchises and upcoming films were mentioned to have news dropped on them, with Trolls 3 being mentioned amongthem.https://fr.linkedin.com/showcase/france-licensing-day-licensing-international-awards-2023/?trk=organization_guest_main-feed-card-text
On March 6, 2023, Theodore Shapiro was confirmed to compose the score for Trolls Band Together, returning from its predecessor.https://filmmusicreporter.com/2023/03/06/theodore-shapiro-to-return-for-dreamworks-animations-trolls-3/
The movie's official poster, alongside with first trailer was released in March 28, 2023 on Universal Pictures and Peacock Kids' YouTube channels. The same day of these announcements, DreamWorks Animation revealed the official title, Trolls Band Together. At the same time, new cast members of the film were officially announced, including Eric André, Kid Cudi, Daveed Diggs, Troye Sivan, Camila Cabello, Amy Schumer, Andrew Rannells, RuPaul Charles and Zosia Mamet.

Tim Heitz was later announced as co-director.https://deadline.com/2023/03/trolls-3-cast-official-title-dreamworks-universal-pictures-1235311560/
According to Shay, the idea for the film came about right after Trolls. Although Trolls Band Together was predominately CGI animation, the film includes some 2D animation sequences with some animation styles inspired by Yellow Submarine and Fantasia.https://www.animationmagazine.net/2023/03/watch-dreamworks-universal-release-trailer-poster-for-trolls-band-together/https://littlebiganimation.eu/les-trolls-3-walt-dohrn-et-gina-shay-secrets In addition, some additional animation was provided by DNEG, around six animators worked a bit on the film including Nimona animation director Ted Ty.
In June 2023, a fan reported a copyright claim came up on a video a friend had submitted to YouTube. The copyright claim against the 3rd parties video seems to confirm that the Trolls Band Together movie was complete and had already been submitted to YouTube for copyright claim and checks purposes.https://twitter.com/dfffaz/status/1665895203733995520?t=s0lA0Aeo2NahvBuMSZy-mQ&s=19

=== Themes ===
A main focus as well for the film is "families", particular as COVID-19 had impacted families during the last film (Trolls World Tour) and about how Branch and his 4 brothers had an open wound which needed time to heal. The focus is less on other countries like in Trolls World Tour, but continues to open the world of Trolls more and more. Since the focus is more on families this time, the Bergens were brought back after their absence in Trolls World Tour, by highlighting the matrimonial union of King Gristle Jr. and Bridget.
As for Branch's brothers, they each had to have their own personalities to explore and relationships within their family. Like the first film, Poppy sees the brothers as a challenge to explore and Branch himself has a bigger emotional hurdle to explore as a result which Poppy will help him through.https://littlebiganimation.eu/les-trolls-3-walt-dohrn-et-gina-shay-secrets
The movie is meant to be a emotional rollercoaster for Branch especially, as he expected his brothers to return but they never did, as the same time it was confirmed he was 3 or 4 when they left (though the movie itself contradicts this). In addition, the movie intends to create a family tree.https://www.thedigitalfix.com/trolls/3-trailer-interview This is reinforced with how Floyd is the glue of BroZone that eventually brings them back together.
In contrast, abusive and unbalanced family dynamics are brought to light through Velvet and Veneer. By using their unhealthy relationship to contrast with BroZone's, it demonstrates how a toxic family relationship can intoxicate a person's mind, like how Veneer is stripped from making proper life decisions and has become mentally broken, due to Velvet's narcissism, thus his need to remove her from his life. This also brings out the concerns of how the pursuit of fame, such as in the materialistic society of Mount Rageous can turn people into monsters who neglect and mistreat their families.
Poppy meanwhile wanted a sister, believing she didn't have one and was supportive of fixing the issues with Branch and his brothers because she believed it was a unbreakable bond. Then when her wish of having a sister came true and she discovered Viva, it was at first a perfect relationship. But it quickly falls apart when Viva can't let go of her own past and Poppy faced her own family problem. A short time after this, Branch found himself also addressing his brother's behaviors. This shows that families have to work their ways through the obstacles, instead of staying in an imaginary bubble of the perfect family, or blaming others for their imposed problems.
Change is also present as a major theme of this movie. This is firstly presented by BroZone, with John Dory, Bruce and Clay accepting that Branch is now a full-fledged adult, and that John Dory becomes more willing to change his own attitude towards his brothers' choices and also himself by trying to become less egotistical. Viva is also shown to have gone through changes, by accepting that Poppy has grown and that the Bergens have indeed changed for the better. Branch has also changed on how he views his three oldest brothers, now finally understanding their perspectives. Even Veneer has undergone a positive change, by accepting that he is wrong with his actions and that he shouldn't let Velvet change who he is inside; through changing into a responsible person who accepts his own punishment and comes clean with his honest confession, he is able to make peace with the Trolls and himself, and earning Floyd's forgiveness, respect and friendship.
A minor theme is also about the price of fame and that Velvet and Veneer may have fame and fortune, but it comes at the cost of Floyd's life. Veneer even starts to question his own morals, eventually leading to his own revelation about what he is doing is wrong. It also corresponds to how fame and fortune cannot purchase or exchange for healthy, happy relationships, as Velvet has never changed her abhorrently abusive attitude towards Veneer even after becoming famous, and only further hurts him in different ways to fuel her own ego.
== ==
The only thing noted so far is that the official status of Poppy and Branch's relationship is confirmed in this movie.https://twitter.com/KevanShorey/status/1249406969804292096 Tim Heitz also said that the two are "going on a epic adventure", but told fans to wait and see if the pair kiss on the lips.https://twitter.com/gloxsyari/status/1469069101389815816
In a French interview to Little Big Animation, it was noted the film would focus much on Poppy and Branch's relationship with each other as it became closer to "Broppy" (this is a fan dubbed term by fans that has existed since Trolls that was first officially used in Trolls: Holiday in Harmony).https://littlebiganimation.eu/les-trolls-3-walt-dohrn-et-gina-shay-secrets

Like Trolls World Tour, this movie is animated via the MoonRay software.
Much of its 2D animation is also inspired by Adventure Time and Steven Universe.

;Poppy's Character Development
Since the last film, Poppy has become not only a better listener, but a mature and wise Queen to her people, as she is giving advice to those who needed it the most, even giving them time to reflect their mistakes. Similar to the first film, Poppy has a challenge in helping bring out three out of four of Branch's brothers inner Troll, as they all have a similar life to Branch before she came into his by living isolated from the outside world, but they didn't lose their happiness and turn gray like he did, due to three out of four having companionship, even though Floyd was able to befriend someone while in captivity. Although she is able to help Spruce and Clay, Poppy has been a big help to John Dory as her cheerful and optimistic personality not only rubbed off on him but also reopen his heart. However, much like her disagreement with her father in the last film, Poppy in this film gets another one in her long lost sister Viva as she is a lot like her in personality, but is similar to who she was by not listing to anyone but herself as she didn't believe her that the Bergens change their ways. Fortunately, Poppy understands Viva's point of view as she doesn't blame her for wanting to protect her and their people.
;Branch's Character Development
This films brings Branch's trust issues into light from the first two films, as he gets it from his older brothers leaving him from when he was very young. Although he loves and missed his brothers very much, Branch is angry and hurt with them as he questions if they cared about him at all. This problem in trust makes it difficult for Branch to be open with anyone, including Poppy, as he fears if he got too close to anyone they would leave him like his brothers did. However, during the journey to rescue Floyd, Branch takes the time to forgive his brothers as he comes to understand their reasons for leaving and feels sympathy for them, especially John Dory. Branch even gains the courage to stand up to three of his brothers for their awful behavior and helped them realize that living isolated from not only each other, but also from the outside world is wrong. Also, through Poppy's support and encouragement, Branch learns to be more open and that it's okay to trust those you are close with.
;Branch's Brothers Character Development
At first, three out of four of Branch's brothers only thought about themselves as they all left without thinking about their two younger siblings. However, over the course of the film, John Dory, Spruce and Clay may have made selfish choices and mistakes but they truly care about each other and their younger siblings as they went out of their way to save Floyd and showed deep affection for Branch. Although Floyd doesn't get much development, he does learn that some sacrifices are worth it for those you love and care about, after witnessing his brothers willing to risk everything to help him. Clay learns that both his past and current self is what makes him who he is and shouldn't be ashamed of a quality that is always been a part of him, as Branch's advice of being yourself impacted him. Spruce learns on how a big brother should be as he comes to realize that real older siblings stand up for their younger ones, after witnessing Clay stand up for him and Branch. However, out of all the brothers, John Dory gets the most development as he learns that it's never too late to change and that good leaders/older siblings listen. Through Poppy's positive influences and three of his brother's help, John Dory lets go of ego and realizes the error of his ways, having come to terms that his younger siblings have grown up and mature. Throughout the adventure to save Floyd, three of Branch's brothers learn to consider their younger siblings feelings and realize that leaving them was the biggest mistake they have ever made, even though some good came out of it.
;Viva's Character Development
Viva is a lot like Poppy in personality. However, unlike her sister, Viva is a lot more cautious as she spent most of her time prepare for a Bergen attack with the group of Trolls that were separated with her while her family and the rest of the group lived a carefree life as they didn't live in fear for a future attack, except Branch. Also, Viva is a lot like Poppy was when it came to listing to others as she wanted to believe and hear what she wanted. Although, upon reading Poppy's scrapbook and meeting the Bergen leaders, Viva learns to take chances and be more open minded.
=== Plot Changes/Scene Deletions ===
;Perfect Family Harmony
Originally in concept artworks, the perfect Family Harmony could only be achieved by having BroZone singing out their songs and lending their talent essence to Branch. This would later be changed to them harmonizing and glowing as the finalized effects of the perfect family harmony.
;Velvet and Veneer's characterizations
In early concepts, Velvet and Veneer were originally going to be hideous villains, who were Bergens or resembled them. While Velvet's characterization had been more consistent with her being irredeemably evil and narcissistic, despite at one point being characterized to use sophisticated words albeit wrongly at times, Veneer has undergone more layers of changes. For example, he is given more sympathy with the implied background of having a sister that dictates his decision-making, while also having him accept his punishment to atone himself and becoming friends with Floyd in the end to let him have a change of heart and rediscovering his true self.
Unlike the movie, Trolls Band Together: The Junior Novelization, due to being a beta manuscript that appears to have undergone very late changes, has no happy closure for Veneer and Floyd. He and Velvet were originally going to try escaping, only to fall off the yacht and into the river. This differs from how the movie actually gives him a second chance in life through Floyd who chooses to forgive and become his friend, despite receiving his punishment.
Velvet and Veneer's twin status is also more pronounced in one of the deleted scenes' storyboards (back when they were designed to be Bergens), where Veneer protested that Velvet was only older than him by two minutes.
螢幕擷取畫面 2024-07-07 120905.png|
;Floyd's Plight
The presentation of Floyd being harmed was different. He was originally going to have his essence drained from his throat, rather than from his entire body. At one point during storyboard stage, Velvet was also planning to exploit Floyd's hair in a fantasy sequence as well.
At another earlier stage of development, the draining device used to suck Floyd's essence was a necklace, rather than a shoulder pad.
;Crimp's Species and Characterizations

Tumblr b7982af384aff3587c3377da039a8a3f 26a4a5cd 1280.png|
Crimp initially wasn't the only assistant Velvet and Veneer had. In fact, there were more of Crimp's kind who were also the twins' assistants.
Another deleted scene also showed that Crimp was more obviously complicit with Velvet and Veneer's scheme by pushing the four older BroZone brothers' bottles into the shoulder pads.
;Introduction and Wedding Scene
There are many changes for the wedding scene.
For instance, Fuzzbert was going to be part of the wedding guests. The guest Bergens also opened many umbrellas together to welcome Bridget arriving from descending from the sky, instead of her rollerblading onto the red carpet.
Branch was also going to wear a tux for this occasion, rather than the varnished vest he wears at the wedding.
3ED1E283-FE29-4FE4-BD59-283DEDCE3CB5.jpg|
There was also going to be a scene where Gristle and Branch, as well as Bridget and Poppy, interacting with each other by letting the Bergen royal couple having their two Troll companions on their palms.
;BroZone Reunion Party Planning Scene
Many characters, such as those from The Snack Pack, are also cut or have reduced screen-time during the movie, especially from a deleted scene about planning BroZone's reunion. King Trollex was originally going to be shown as the DJ, Smidge initially had involvement in wedding preparation, and Cloud Guy also was supposed to have more dialogues regarding his false advertising. In fact, there was going to be more Cooper and Prince Darnell interactions, like Cooper getting frightened over a nonexistent cupcake monster when checking out what's inside Fuzzbert, which causes Cooper himself to poop out cupcakes.https://speakerdeck.com/amarshel/trolls-band-together-sq1400?slide=163
Chad was also going to appear with King Gristle Jr., but he was not able to make through the final cut.https://speakerdeck.com/amarshel/trolls-band-together-sq1600?slide=6
GIfGiKKXwAAIEJl.jpg|
Chad Slide 5.jpg|
;Peppy's Photo Album Scene
King Peppy was originally going to have a scene where he looked at a photo album that he retrieved from beneath his bed, reminiscing about Poppy's younger days, and missing Viva. Poppy's egg was seen and Viva was also supposed to be introduced at this point in a photograph which showed her holding Poppy as a baby.https://speakerdeck.com/amarshel/trolls-band-together-sq1400?slide=271 Though it is known that Viva's removal was made a big reveal later in the movie. Branch's family loss would become the soul focus of the introduction.
;Wall Climbing and Chipped Teeth Scene
There was originally a scene of John Dory, Branch and Poppy climbing up a tall hill with grappling hooks. During the climb, John Dory teased about Branch's baby teeth, which offended Branch, who unfortunately resulted in having chipped teeth and other injuries. This scene was cut likely due to graphic imagery and time constraints.
;BroZone Practice Montage
Trolls 3 - Jon Magram Storyboards - "Brozone Training" (pitch video)
There was originally going to be a training montage inducted by Poppy to train three of the BroZone brothers' vocal chords and harmony, after Bruce, then called Selleck, was recruited. This was done through testing how the three brothers would manage to use their singing to shatter fragile objects.
This scene included a joke of Tiny Diamond not knowing John Dory's name as well.
;Velvet and Veneer's Spraying Scene
tumblr_9e8874151670054627cc14f619a320d1_a2bdc0b0_1280.png|
tumblr_950181845548320eae33cf6feed093c6_e0b9a430_1280.png|
There was originally a scene where Velvet forcibly sprayed Floyd's essence into Veneer's mouth without warning, and then used her fingers to close his mouth.
;Illegal Pet Monkey 
Veneer's pet monkey was originally shown in one of the deleted scenes, being a monstrous monkey named Snorkels. 
螢幕擷取畫面 2024-07-07 115538.png|Snorkels
;Bridget and Gristle's Honeymoon
Bridget and Gristle were originally going to have an entire montage of them enjoying their honeymoon at a water park, before Bridget rode their motorcycle into the sunset. This montage was likely cut due to time constraints.
;Trapped in Hole N' Fun
BA73A44B-A221-4BF9-84B1-9EE19AA87770.jpg|
Clay was originally the one who orchestrated the plan of trapping his brothers and Poppy, with Viva and the other Putt Putt Trolls being his minions instead.
;Post-Argument in Rhonda Scene
8E84DB91-4965-4D7A-BFE0-41B8148F70CA.jpeg|
After Branch snapped at John Dory, Bruce, and Clay, Poppy was originally going to prevent Branch from exiting Rhonda.
;Crimp and Tiny Romancing
GBXhimYa0AAOuiF.png|
There was originally going to be a scene of Tiny and Crimp romancing each other, and leaving Branch and Poppy to continue with the rescue mission. Although this scene is intended to be a one-off gag, it became questionable due to both characters having a huge age gap, evidently with Tiny being a baby and Crimp implied to be older than him. This presumably led to this particular scene being cut.
;Car Chase Scene and Climax
DD076531-3906-41EB-834D-38AE92453967.jpeg|
Velvet and Veneer originally had a different car, and they also had scarves instead of complete makeovers with their costumes and hairstyles like they have in the movie. The scarves were, in fact, tools to conceal the other BroZone brothers. Veneer initially was also shown to have concerns over the plan, but Velvet insisted that there would be no problem.
Rhonda was also going to pop out from the ground and onto the carpet, and Veneer could be seen covering his face in embarrassment during the confrontation. Both twins were additionally horrified to see Branch's face broadcast across the screens before they hurriedly leave.
During the scene where Branch was trying to grab Floyd, Velvet was originally going to inhale Floyd's essence to break free from Branch's grip, rather than just swatting him.
Both Velvet and Veneer also descend differently onto the Rage Dome stage, falling with microphones without catching the cameras.
;Villains Singing Scene
There was originally a storyboard of a montage with prototype Velvet and Veneer singing while sucking Floyd dry to highlight their then undecided personalities, and that Crimp was going to interact with some rather scornful production crew who spat in disrespect.
;Branch and Poppy Kissing Scene
E60B5322-354A-4FBC-B3E8-9ADA1EC76B15.jpg|
Branch and Poppy originally kissed at a different angle during one of the storyboards.
=== World Building ===
;Mount Rageons
Mount Rageons were originally nonexistent as a species. Instead, they were intended to be a division of Bergens. Their addition is likely added much later into production.
Also, in earlier designs, many of them were illustrated in the shape of the letter "V", or presented as fuzzy or ugly monsters.

;Mount Rageous
Aside from the Mount Rageons, their habitat Mount Rageous is introduced. It is designed to be a bustling hub inspired by 80's to 90's aesthetics, with constantly partying teenagers that the Mount Rageons are based on. It is also evident that it is more technologically advanced than most Troll tribes' settlements, having wide flat-screen televisions and even internet access. It is highlighted by visuals to be extremely night-less, glamorous, and bright, which is to correspond with the Mount Rageons' restlessness and vibrancy, but also their materialism and shallowness.
Mount Rageous is also entailed to have incorporated elements of a classic shoegaze band, and albums like Loveless. Furthermore, it was intended to have aesthetics of ribbon-like noodle streets, stacked gems, and floating signs. There was also intended to be jellybean cars as vehicles.

The habitat Vacay Island is introduced. It is intended to visually convey relaxation and exuding paradise vibes. Early concept artworks showcase creatures outside of Vacaytioners living on the island.

The habitat of the Putt Putt Trolls is also introduced, and it is evident with elements of abandoned golf courts. It was originally much wilder, more unkempt, and desolated as presented in concept artworks.

While Trolls World Tour was inspired by 80s Hard Rock music, the focus of Trolls Band Together is 90s boyband music. Theodore Shapiro returns as the main composer for the film while Justin Timberlake returns as the main music executive. They are joined by other musicians both some returning from Trolls World Tour as well as new ones. 5 original songs are set for the movie alongside more jukebox music, including classic songs and familiar upbeat ones. Like Trolls and Trolls World Tour, the same sequence choreographer, who worked with Justin for NSYNC, returns for dance sequences.https://littlebiganimation.eu/les-trolls-3-walt-dohrn-et-gina-shay-secrets
As 2023 progressed, midway through the year, a rumor was spread that NSYNC was reuniting for a song related to the promotion of the movie. At the end of August, a website called "Take You To a Better Place" appeared with what seemed like NSYNC personified Trolls of the band, with Justin Timberlake's "Troll" being of course Branch.https://www.takeyoutoabetterplace.com/

The Metro writer LI-Z reviewed the movie. LI-Z reported having a soft spot for Trolls and enjoyed that movie but likened Trolls Band Together to a "punch to the face" and said it was "painful to watch". LI-Z applauded the visuals as a position as the animation was a positive but criticized the storyline as a negative and quoted that "AI could have done better". LI-Z summed it up as nothing but a cash grab when commenting on the desire for Justin Timberlake to make 7 films.https://metro.co.uk/2023/10/26/trolls-band-together-review-are-we-getting-trolled-19719755/?ico=trending-module_tag_justin-timberlake_item-3
Wendy Ide of The Guardian meanwhile also sided with LI-Z, noting like LI-Z that as a series Troll is "wearing thin".https://www.theguardian.com/film/2023/oct/22/trolls-band-together-review-justin-timberlake-anna-kendrick-sugary-dreamworks-series-starts-to-leave-a-sour-taste Cath Clarke meanwhile presented a more positive overall review, but noticed a lot of elements of the movie were just backdrops to its bonkiness. While she didn't think the movie would become vintage family material, but noted it was gloriously odd in its own way.https://www.theguardian.com/film/2023/oct/18/trolls-band-together-review-anna-kendrick-justin-timberlake
Helen O'Hara of the Telegraph presented a more positive but critical review noting once again the animation and visuals were to be praised. Helen said the film was mostly weightless but fun. Helen criticised the film for aiming wierd but playing it safe at the last moment.https://www.empireonline.com/movies/reviews/trolls-band-together/

Similar to other puns in titles for the franchise, "Band Together" is likely a pun between two definitions of "band": a group of comrades and a group of musicians.
The title can also refer to the movie's premise, which is Poppy and Branch bringing the former band BroZone back together.
According to a interview with Little Big Animation, the reason in the French version the name Trolls Band Together isn't translated and the movie is still being called "Les Trolls 3" (translation; "The Trolls 3") is simply that it is not possible to accurately translate it directly, due to "band together" being an idiomatic phrase in English, and the English title being a pun on its own right.https://littlebiganimation.eu/les-trolls-3-walt-dohrn-et-gina-shay-secrets 
*This likely explains why the movie title is not translated in other languages as well. This would also explain past installments of the franchise seeing their titles renamed in other languages.
== ==
*During Velvet and Veneer's arrest, Clay notes they were commiting tax fraud and that there would be consequences. This is a popular cultural nod to the gangster Al Capone. Al earnt the reputation for being untouchable, as he would make people disappear or paid off corrupt law officials to look the other way. However, Al gained money illegally and thought he didn't have to declare it on his taxes, thus unwittily owed the IRS a lot of money.
**The resulting charges meant officials above the local law enforcement were allowed to come in a cease him; these law enforcement officials could not be easily be bought/bribed by the gangster.
**Al was finally held accountable for a crime he could not get away with.
**As a result, the IRS became a infamous threat to many for its ability to take down gangsters, celebrities, politicians and religious figures who remain untouchable where all other law enforcements could not do a thing to stop corruption. Thus, out of all the crimes committable in the Unite States of America, tax fraud is considered the only crime an individual cannot get away with. 
**As it is referencing this situation, while Velvet and Veneer may be able to get away with the events of Trolls Band Together, they cannot escape that particular charge, this is why Veneer also willingly accepts jail.
*In the finale, Rhonda makes the Wookie sound from Star Wars, the same sound Chewbacca makes at the end of episode 4, when they celebrate at the end.
*When Velvet references her and Veneer's childhood, the first fake story is based upon Oliver Twist.
*The movie makes many references to real boybands. In their departure, the Brozone references to real boy bands such as NSYNC, Boyz II Men, One Direction and the Backstreet Boys. The poster meanwhile notes the name of New Kids on the Block.
*The Vacaytioners resemble "Anything Muppets", and the Mount Rageons resemble Betty Spaghetty doll range. Both are notable for their "noodle arm" style of design for their characters.
*Velvet and Veneer are nods to fake-celebrities. This happened from time to time in the 80s and 90s, wherein people with talent were deemed not good enough to promote so their talent was used and a someone else much more marketable was taught how to pretend. The most famous example of this being Milli Vanilli.
*The chart show seen "The Bop on Top" is most likely a nod to song chart shows like the British chart show Top of the Pops.
== ==
*Trolls, Trolls Holiday, Trolls World Tour and Trolls: Holiday in Harmony all occurred within the first year of the storyline. Trolls Band Together is the first storyline to take place outside that of the first year. Despite this, only a short timespan has happened since the events of the previous movies and Trolls Band Together takes place 1 month after Trolls World Tour.
**The 2D animation Trolls: TrollsTopia takes places over months, this is why 2D animations for the franchise is generally noted to be non-canon as it often contradicts the movies.
*The franchise is fond of only giving estimations for ages. This meant that prior to this movie, age estimations by fans could only be made using Poppy's notable age of 20+ from Trolls, so all ages for other Trolls were estimated based around it this only. As of this movie, Branch's age is now confirmed to be 24+, making him at no older then 23+ in the previous movies and specials and giving a second age estimation for other Trolls.
**Tiny Diamond is one month old, making him the only character so far to have an estimated age.
*Poppy didn't know Branch was in BroZone because he went by the name of "Bitty B".
*Poppy's Hug Time Bracelet she is known to wear in Trolls and Trolls World Tour is revealed to be Viva's.
*Floyd says upon meeting Branch he is more like a Trunk now. In many dubs, his name is translated to mean "Trunk" instead of "Branch".
*In Trolls, the Bergens name means "mountain", the Mount Rageons name also contains the word "Mountain", which is both the name of the place they live and like the Bergens a reference to how they appear as big as a mountain to the Trolls. The name Mount Rageons itself, "Mount" as mentioned means "mountain" and "Rageous" means "extreme anger", is a pun on "Outrageous" meaning "shockingly bad and excessive" and likely refers to their culture and how they Rageons live.
*The movie reveals John Dory tried to return but found no one there because of The Last Trollstice.
**Branch's 'Survival Bunker' was revealed to be originally a 'Fun Bunker' for him and his brothers to live in. It was started being built 10 years before Trolls. He built it as the Survival bunker after being left alone for more then 10 years with no family.
**This movie also confirms that aside from BroZone and Rosiepuff, he had no other family members growing up, meaning that Branch grew up as an orphan with the location of their parents being lost or unknown.
**Floyd was the only one who had promised to return originally.
*Viva's separation from her family most happened when Peppy was told some Trolls were behind in Trolls, he is seen going back for Darius and others. By this time the Trolls were under attack from the Bergens who had figured out about the tunnels. Peppy notes he was calling "No Trolls Left Behind" but Viva and her Trolls were separated by a boulder. This forced Peppy to escape with the Trolls he had and force him to leave the Trolls behind that he couldn't reach.
**This story also reveals Clay was a witness to the event as he was with the Putt Putt Trolls.
**Presuming all other details are correct, Darius was the slowest member of Peppy's group and the last member of the Pop Trolls. Though non-canon, Trolls: The Junior Novelization states Darius injured his leg during the escape, so he was still able to get quite far away from the Troll Tree before the others were cut off.
*Grandma Rosiepuff, who is seen at the beginning of the moive, died before The Last Trollstice. Her death is generally one of the series indications of time since the cage around the Troll Tree is seen in Branch's flashback, which allows the placement of when BroZone broke up in the Trolls Timeline.
*During the Let's Get Married, Bridget sings part of the song Hello which she sung in Trolls.
*Viva states The Last Trollstice escape happened at night.
**For this statement to be correct, the escape would have had to occurred in the early morning while it was still dark, and was still taking place when the Bergens woke up as no night scenes were shown in Trolls during the escape, and the only night shown was later that day when Chef was banished by King Gristle Sr..
**The tunnels are long and it is possible this was the case, but otherwise would be an error.
**In addition, what was shown was according to Poppy's re-telling of the story as read from a scrapbook, thus may have inaccurate elements for this reason. The version said in this movie is based upon the eye witness accounts of Viva, Clay and King Peppy themselves. As exampled in Trolls World Tour with the recount of the Strings, Pop Trolls embellish stories.
*The Water Park sign has a Wingdingle on it, this is mentioned in Trolls and is noted in the non-canon Branch and the Cooking Catastrophe as a bird that is a hazard to both Troll and Bergen alike.
*Branch is at his grandma's pod in the introduction of the movie, and again at the same pod just before the wedding. This places the BroZone break up at the Troll Tree as thats where the Pod is in present day.
*Floyd's is at least 2 months into captivity, meaning that he was already being held by Velvet and Veneer while the events of Trolls World Tour are occurring.
*Viva's note about Peppy liking to keep secrets in regards to her is also a reference to Trolls World Tour where he didn't tell Poppy about the other Tribes.
*John Dory calls Queen Barb's world tour The Rock Apocalypse and notes this is the only reason he found out Branch was still alive because of his involvement with it.
== ==
*The poster shows all 5 members of BroZone with their current (adult) hairstyles. From the front to back; Floyd, John Dory, Branch, Spruce and Clay can be seen.
*This is the first time a Trolls franchise movie to:
**Not have Trolls lose colors on a massive scale.
**Have an antagonistic character redeem solo.
*This is the first Trolls film to not star James Corden as Biggie. Instead, David Fynn, who voiced the character in the television series Trolls: The Beat Goes On! and Trolls: TrollsTopia, provides his voice.
*Unlike the Bergens, currently the Vacaytioners and Velvet and Veneer's respective species were not been named by official sources. However, the latter were named Mount Rageons in the movie.
*The Palace Theatre in Gorleston played the 15 rate film "Dream Scenario" instead of Trolls Band Together by accident. This included 45 minutes of age appropriate ads, including a beheading.https://uk.news.yahoo.com/children-shown-beheading-scene-cinema-195000750.html
*The movies plot happens in 3 days and two nights.
*Poppy is never referred to by a royal title in this movie, despite being Queen of the Pop Trolls.
*This is the last Trolls movie to be made entirely by DreamWorks Animation in-house at their Glendale campus before it was reported that DreamWorks was moving away from producing films in-house to rely more heavily on outside Studios.
