The marketing looks cheap which makes the movie look cheap. Like a CW show on film

The marketing does not show much confidence for the movie, that is for sure.

Looks less like a movie still, more like cosplayers posing for a photoshoot.

Why does Sweeney have a chin strap? Its not even like a helmet design it's just a facemask

They probably felt they needed to add something to the comics design after removing the cool Venom style eyes. Chin strap ain't it tho. 

 

A pity they're doing Julia Carpenter Spider-Woman injustice because black suit Spidey and Venom were the ones to have basically stolen her look instead of the other way around

I've understood Spiderman with the black suit appeared on The Amazing Spider-Man #252 (May 1984), while Julia Carpenter appeared on Secret Wars #7 (November 1984).

 

So, it seems more likely Julia Carpenter Spider Woman's suit could be based on black suit Spidey, right? Is there a story I don't know?

Both Julia Spider-Woman and Black Suit Spidey were designed by the same artist Mike Zeck. Zeck had initially designed Julia's costume but apparently then Marvel Comics Editor-in-Chief Jim Shooter suggested copying the design for a new suit for Spider-Man. 

 

 

Also, Venom's host was originally conceived to be a woman instead of Eddie Brock: https://www.ign.com/articles/2018/10/09/venom-was-originally-a-woman-who-blamed-her-miscarriage-on-spider-man

That's pretty interesting. Thank you for the answer.

Well it won’t appeal to anyone else so it’s a good tactic

"I think you're going to see it twice."

 

That's a really tall task considering that's 0x the amount I planned to see it.

Seeing how the whole point of making the film was to ride the coattails of the Spider-Man brand, I don't understand why marketing hasn't pushed the overt Spider-Man connections front and center.

I know it's not him, but I keep thinking the guy Dakota Johnson fights in the diner is just Miles Morales. Suit looks just like his. Could fool me into thinking he's in the movie.

Maybe they will when tickets go on sale.

Please tell me this isn't the classic "Let's force the bad guy out a skyscraper window" and they're revealing the finale in a promo still?  Wouldn't surprise me...

Problem is nobody but the hard core Spidey fans care about these  really obscure charecters in the Spidey Verse.You have to make a r eally good movie to have a chance when you do that.

Venom did well becuase he has GA name recognition but Madame Web? Forget about it.

The pivot to Valentine's movie marketing is interesting for a movie with zero indication of romance in it at all

They are getting desperate.
