Eric Davis was at one of the first U.S. press screenings last week . He is not supposed to share his social media reactions yet but I guess he kind of did :

I mean, not disparaging the guy, and maybe the movie IS a contender, but... he seems to barely ever give anything but positive reviews to even the most questionable of movies. So if this is the only one of the expected Oscar players that he's actually seen, it makes sense lol.

I prefer Oppenbarbie 😀

The biggest marketing this movie has gotten is from Barbie social media team

I'm also a bit baffled as to how one would expect marketing to go for a 3 hour R rated dramatic biopic.

They have done a ton of TV spots as far as I have understood - which helps with the intended older audience. Nolan name sells the project to younger audiences that are fans and it's difficult to have any other type of online promotion for this type of project, I think.

 

I mean, I am a millennial not Gen Z, but me and most of my friends don't even watch TV on actual TV these days. Nolan's intended audience is not THAT old.

This is what I need for Nolan ! Oscar! 

 

The BO success of Oppenheimer is a very important moment for Hollywood post-pandemic, especially in term of how to market a serious, actionless, historical drama. Yes, Elvis and Creed 3 prove it , in a way, but it is always great to see another example.

clearly we should have gotten lewis strauss dolls, oppenheimer flavored ice cream and communist themed play stations

Would Oppenheimer flavored ice cream be laced with uranium or something?

It is for this movie. It's a 3 hour dramatic biopic. It's not an action movie. Once you go outside his fan base, that would already be familiar with his project, the biggest potential demographic that needs to actually be reached is on TV. Also, we're talking TV spots during major sports events, not bloody Matlock ffs.

Glad to see they're finally pushing out promo material that isn't just stills of Cillian looking haunted.

Feel sorry for the oldies who will try to secure their IMAX tickets next week.

I already now hate this movie (and Barbie) because of the marketing.

Oh well. At least I got to deep six THE GREATEST SUPERHERO MOVIE SINCE THE DARK KNIGHT.

The NBC Universal corporate synergy in action: a NBC News documentary about J. Robert Oppenheimer debuting in July, and MSNBC hosts hyping up the early screenings they saw. The Today Show is probably a bit lighthearted for "Oppenheimer Week", not a great fit between the cooking and shopping segments.

I don't consider Creed 3 to be a historical drama.

I also note that "Fat Man And Little Boy" is now being shown on Amazon Prime.
