I'm not sure if I buy that to be honest. At best he's referring to both projects involving the multiverse in some form. Otherwise, it's more so that Loki is being used as a airbag when The Marvels bombs.

basically he explains in another tweet that 

Spoiler

loki finale is kind of confusing but you get more clear on what happends in the episode after seen the marvels 

btw alex proves in the past to be  trustful with these things 

[OncomingStorm93]

That "final trailer" is the most desperate thing I've ever seen out of Marvel Studios.

 

As a matter of perspective, the previous leader, now second-most desperate thing they've done was putting the Tony Stark cameo in The Incredible Hulk in the last round of TV spots. Then again, that may have been a Universal decision. Either way, that was 15 freaking years ago.

Their best movie and the movie that launched the franchise into INFINITY AND BEYOND happened under his leadership. 

 

 

Get better bait, this shit is embarrassing. Definition of yelling into the void. 

[DInky]

The trailer really does feel incredibly desperate. One positive thing I have to say about it though is that the trailer makes it seem like the movie has actual stakes.

[babz06]

The latest trailer is in desperate but it just might entice some on the fence ticket goers. 

[MovieMan89]

Just getting around to the trailer…

 

a) what studio releases a full blown brand new trailer that isn’t just a spot mere days before the film, desperate as hell

 

b) but not as desperate as the opening to that trailer, good grief 

 

c) the trailer overall outside of the desperation parts is far more interesting and effective than any other piece of marketing, great job waiting until the movie is basically in theaters to release it Disney!

Original Avengers is one of my all time favorite theatrical experience, but let’s not pretend those trailers weren’t shit. The quality of the film was a mega surprise. 

This trailer

 

and this extended super bowl

spot

 

are some of the best marketing I’ve ever seen for a movie and threw my hype into the stratosphere. Joss Whedon doesn’t get enough credit for making a

movie with so much iconic imagery.

After having watched it, I felt like it would've been a decent trailer, if the actors weren't giving major substitute teacher energy and if the main fight between the hero and villain was more visually intriguing.

You have superman like powers, but you're fighting hand to hand Jason Statham battles?

Tracking for this was chaotic as shit but we basically all knew it was gonna bomb the day pre-sales started. Even before some people knew it was gonna be the lowest MCU opening ever or even $40M (shoutout to @TheFlatLannister for getting it right). 

 

Tracking for Aquaman is gonna be an even bigger shitshow. Like if it's tracking poorly it's just gonna be a war between people saying "oh my god it's doomed" and  "don't worry, positive word of mouth and Christmas legs will save it" (and people will inevitably bring up Puss in Boots as an example)

Don't forget the walk-ups. Walk-ups solve everything. Poor tracking? Pfff, just wait for walkups to beef the preview number.  Also, since Aquaman is released for Xmas we'll get a lot of "people are still shopping, numbers will spike after, you'll see" and "people are having family diner, numbers will spike in the morning" types of excuses. The shades of TLJ showshow. It's gonna be fun holiday season.

All this has nothing on the first Quantumania trailer (I hated Quantumania, but that teaser. Omg). 

 

Starting with Shang-Chi, marvel started licensing popular music in all their trailers, and every teaser has slapped ever since.

 

 

This trailer has no right going so hard

 

Omg, and this one was such a masterpiece

why these stuff look so fresh and lively

No shot that was an hour 45 min, I was definitely in there longer than Killers of the Flower Moon.

[Lucas]

To maybe give a slightly more eloquent early impression, the first 20-25 minutes were fun, energetic, and silly in the right ways. Once that section (which is basically played out in real time) is done and dusted I really struggled to stay awake. It's not very entertaining and the baseline plot feels like an afterthought, if not just completely undercooked. Iman Vellani and everyone Ms. Marvel related are better than everything else in the movie, but Teyonah Parris, Brie Larson and Samuel L. Jackson put in fine work.

 

Yeah, there was a post credits scene where a thing happened.

The embargo's not even up yet and we already have a legendary reaction. Morbius-tier reactions incoming?

Feel like you tend to be the canary in the coal mines for critic reception so.......yeesh.

How was it? How many stars out of 5?

[toutvabien]

Honestly, expecting this to be received by a shrug by most folks.

[eddyxx]

Amazing that the movie is out in some countries now but still embargoed. Disney is so stupid.

They should have released this a month ago. 

 

Labor Day weekend would have ended up being a good date.  Barren release schedule where nothing clicked, so it would have had 8 weeks minimum in all theaters (since it would have been held with Taylor's release and maybe would have even had synergy)...

 

Now, it could be 2 if it bombs and out in small theaters?  Maybe 5 in most other theaters, and definitely leaving Dec 22...

Oh definitely not Morbius tier, most of it is just very mediocre but I liked it more than Quantumania (that's the MCU movie of the year I'd say is Morbius tier). I wouldn't even rule out a fresh tomato, there could be a lot of middle of the road positives.
