Trolls World Tour Quotes

Who wants to get tattoos everywhere except our faces in case we need to get office jobs!
Branch
You have to be able to listen to other voices, even when they don’t agree with you. They make us stronger, more creative, more inspired. So whether your song is sad and heartfelt, loud and defiant, or warm and funky, or even if you’re a little bit of each, it’s all these sounds and all our differences that make our world a richer place. Because you can’t harmonize alone.
Poppy

Trolls World Tour Parents Guide

Parents should know that Trolls World Tour is a sequel to the original Trolls movie in 2016. This time around the trolls battle one another on the music stage as groups of trolls are represented by the music genres they belong to.

The hard rock trolls attempt to turn everyone to their side, and battles break out. The hard rock trolls cause most of the chaos by breaking and destroying objects as well as kidnapping some of the trolls.

One troll has a glimpse of his happy place in a near-death drowning incident, but nobody dies. There is some mild insulting language throughout such as, “you suck,” and “dang.” Additionally, there is also some light flirting between a couple of the main characters.

Overall, the movie has an all-star cast of voice talent for the music-focused film and emphasizes positive messages around the importance of diversity, inclusion, and musical creativity.

Trolls World Tour Plot Summary (Spoilers)

In the sequel to The wildly successful 2016 movie Trolls, Trolls World Tour is truly a celebration of all things trolls, and as the narrator recaps the first film, he also explains the troll’s world is going to get a lot bigger.

The techno trolls are having fun at a rave when the Hard Rock troll Queen Barb rocks out with their weaponized guitars to destroy the stage and demand that Trollex hand over his guitar string to her. The electro trolls have no choice but to hand over the guitar string that holds the power of techno music.

Later, Poppy is contacted by Barb with an invitation to unite all Troll music. Poppy talks to her father and learns that a wide variety of trolls are scattered across their lands. There were once six magical lyre strings that represented each of the tribes.

There are rock trolls, country trolls, techno trolls, classical trolls, pop trolls, and funk trolls, all of whom worship different styles of music. Each of them has a magical string, which is the property of the tribe’s leader.

They all used to live together in harmony, but disagreement and discord led them to break up. Barb and Poppy decide that Trolls should be united with all forms of music despite her father’s warnings to trust Barb.

Barb is busy boasting about snatching the techno string, and she reveals a plan to create a super guitar made with each string from the different tribes of trolls.

Poppy tries to prove herself to be the best. She takes an air balloon to recruit a team. Branch follows her as he tries to convince her of his feelings for her. Biggie is stowed away on the balloon, and Cooper, who feels like he doesn’t fit in, is also going on the journey.

First, they visit the classical troll’s land, Symphonyville, which is in ruins. They meet a sentient flute called Pennywhistle and learn that an attack from Barb’s Armada decimated the land.

All the citizens are captured, and Barb steals the classical string. At this point, Biggie, Branch, and Poppy decide that the trolls need to be united behind a common cause to stop Barb, and the journey takes them to the country called Lonesome Flats.

As the trolls venture into the country music region, Poppy tries to cheer them up with pop music, and her idea backfires. Unfortunately, they quickly find themselves jailed by the queen Delta Dawn. They soon meet a country troll named Hickory, who helps them break out of jail.

Branch doesn’t trust Hickory’s motives as they travel around the country for Vibe City to warn the Funk Trolls. They bump into a smooth jazz troll named Chaz, who stuns them with his music to steal the string.

Biggie loses faith in Poppy’s leadership and returns home. Hickory captures Jazz, and the team finds themselves kidnapped by the funk trolls and beamed up into the Vibe City spaceship.

While inside the spaceship, the trolls learn Cooper is the long-lost Prince of Funk’s twin. Cooper reveals that he believes funk and pop have a part to play in society.

The royals tell Papi about the tribes being forced to listen to one style of music. They did this by stealing every string they could get their hands on and forcing all of the Trolls to only listen to their style of music.

The king and queen try to explain to Poppy that while the trolls may not agree on many things, their differences are essential, and this is what makes them trolls.

The Hard Rock Trolls continue their reign of terror by hijacking the Funk Trolls ship and stealing the purple string. Cooper finally ejects some bubbles but accidentally causes Hickory to become separated.

Branch accuses her of being selfish and tells her that a good Queen needs to listen to these results, and they go in their direction. Unfortunately, Branch is captured right away by Cecilio and team K-pop.

With some help from the Reggaeton, Branch convinces them to fight for Poppy and all styles of music.

Meanwhile, Hickory convinces Poppy that she needs to take the pop string home and tells her that he’s a Yodel troll and that Barb is hiring him and another surviving Yodel named Hickory to kidnap her.

However, he started to believe in her mission. Before she can escape, Barb captures Poppy and is now in possession of all six strings.

When Biggie arrives home, everything’s a shambles, and he feels guilty for abandoning the Trolls. He gathers together a team of friends he decides to rescue her.

Trolls World Tour Branch and Poppy

Biggie and Branch travel to the land of Volcano Rock City to confront Barb and free the trolls. Barb’s ready to play in her debut concerts for her sixth-string guitar; meanwhile, Poppy is in prison under the stage.

The audience for the concert is all captured trolls. Barb confesses that Poppy’s attempts to be a better queen and do a good thing reveal that rock is the only music, and Barb’s going to use her enchanted guitar to turn all trolls into rock zombies.

Poppy is one step ahead of Barb and wears gumdrop earplugs to prevent the music from taking control of her. Having Barb’s guitar, she lectures her about not listening to her people smashing it. The broken guitar releases all the strings and Trolls from their zombie-like state and ends the music with control over all trolls.

Cooper begins to hear his heartbeat for the first time. His proximity to a microphone amplifies this. Prince takes up the runway beach, and all the trolls start stomping together.

They’ve learned that they can make music using different sounds. Poppy takes this opportunity to get everyone singing together, which restores their colors, and everyone begins to understand the importance of music.

Barb joins the singing trolls, and her colors are restored. Poppy turns to her to offer friendship despite all her wrongs. Eventually, Branch finds the courage to tell Poppy how he feels.

At the end of the Trolls World Tour, all the Trolls from the different lands are finally united after reconciling their differences.
