I just saw the Downton Abbey trailer and, as someone who finished the series, I'm left wondering what is the point of this movie? Is it just fan service finishing up storylines of characters of the show while having gratuitous shots of the estate and costumes with Maggie Smith slinging sometimes witty one-liners or will it actually be about something deeper?
I saw that too and thought the same. I don't expect the movie will be very good, TBH, but I might go see it anyway just to enjoy the characters.
Also, the trailer suggested romances for Mary and Edith. This bothered me, since they both married at the end of the series, which was a nice way to wrap it up.
