I tried to tell you guys the reactions would be out of this world and silly talk of a $30m opening weekend were nonsense.  

Have you seen the movie or just heard word about it 🤔

More and more I’m reminded of Ant-Man’s lackluster marketing, which in retrospect it struggled to sell a fun Amblin-inspired heist movie is surprising.

Yeah but it did good by 2015 CBM for a new character standards. In both of my Civil War screenings people cheered when he showed up.

Plenty of MCU movies have good 3rd acts and this could easily be one of them. Something can be a mess and have lots of cgi, but simply having lots of cgi doesn't make it a mess.   

 

 

 

 

It's simply not a Marvel movie if you don't blow everything up at the end. First they feed us the vegatables, then we get the juicy steak

Fan anticipation is good. Spoilers will be out by Tomorrow. 

Marvel never does this. Fan screenings loses so many audience that will ho to theatre and hype the movie. It's ugly approach. 

[Nova]

So I finally saw the trailer for this before Free Guy and thought it looked really good to the point where it's something I decided I'd see in theaters. Which is why I was dumbfounded by some of the comments in the last weekend thread about it. 

 

Really happy to see it's getting really good reactions and based on the tracking thread seems like it's going to open very well too.

On the contrary. Fan screenings can help create even more buzz for a movie. 

 

It worked well with Deadpool 2 fyi 

[Menor the Destroyer]

How much demand would realistically be burned? Like in just 25 screenings it can't have a material effect on the OW. If the movie is indeed really good then maybe those who watched will be hyping it up. There is the spoiler worry, I guess, hopefully people who watch it early will be considerate.

But there was no need. These people would have most likely gone on opening weekend and now some of them won't. 

If this was near the film opening I would have understood but this early is not good at all.

Disney Marvel has created the biggest cinematic universe of all time and people still question their release strategies 😶

That was pre pandemic. It didn't work for Shazam, FB2 and many more.

reminder if i remember correctly leaks are already there along with the entire third act if i remember correctly... the movie will be fine if  there are spoilers there will be in reddit or twitter (which prob will be taken down)

I think they're making the bet that this will have really great WOM with fans. So they want that out there to build hype.

No definitive leak right now. After this whole plot and end credit scenes will be leaked online. This kills excitement for many. 

 

Honestly, there was no need. Good reviews would have taken care of anything. Movie literally has a month to itself, wom would have spread either way. 

 

This is just burning demand.
