The first time I watched the Opening Declaration trailer, I noticed a scene about 1-2 seconds long. I thought someone might bring it up in the next few days, but since then no one has seemed to mention it. Granted, I might be creating something out of thin air here -- in which case, please forgive the fangirl conspiracy theories.
Did anyone notice the interaction between Bayman and Helena in the trailer? I took screencaps of the entire thing. Sorry for the image-heavy thread, but the scene happened so quickly that I wanted to show it in stills, as big and clear as possible.
How does that scene play out to you? I thought Bayman looked dazed, and had an unusually soft expression (as opposed to his usual smirk/scowl). Like he was intrigued by something, or even intoxicated. Then when they zoom in, Helena is in his irises. The dark shadowing around her eyes and her sidelong glance amounted to something of a come-hither look, imo. I'm not as sure about Bayman's expression, but I'm pretty sure she was implying something.
I admit I'm a biased person, as someone who mains Helena. ^^" But in my defense, that was my initial reaction watching the trailer, before I realized it was even her. At first I thought it was Lauren -- which doesn't make sense, since that's Leon's girl, but iunno.
One counter-argument off the top of my head is where they seem to be standing. It looks like Bayman is somewhere (the oil rig?) where it's night, whereas I think Helena is on the Freedom Survivor from Dimensions during the daytime. If that's true, it could be a fancy editing technique on TN's part, I suppose.
Thoughts? What were your impressions of this scene? Some people have said DOA World is the better-suited place to chat about this stuff, so I hope this thread doesn't tick anyone off. ^^"
