Do we need to post the test screening video again

Quote

A woman started shouting as she left the theater, and I’m pretty sure she said “Tim Burton you raped my childhood.”

No c'mon this isn't real.

Man I'm not even that interested in this but I always hate whenever test screening reactions become "the narrative". They just stir up pointless shit, and they betray a certain cynical intent on the part of the people sharing them.

People get so  damn emotional based on a single rumor. You think they would learn better, but, sadly, they don't seem to learn.

I'm not sure if this is meant to be a knock on me, but the blame belongs on the people who float the rumor in the first place. It's a dick move that shows a lack of respect for the test screening process. By sharing reactions you're pushing a narrative that "this movie is bad and I have eyewitness proof", when the whole point of test screenings is to get discreet audience criticism so that the movie can be reworked accordingly.

Not aimed at you at all.

I agree that the people who start these rumors are wrong, but I have to blame people who fall for every stray rumor that comes along.

People get confused because the4re are two kinds of advance screenings" Test Screenings to get the audeince reaction, and then screenings of the completed film to try got get publicity and WOM for the film. Do not confuse the two.

2.1 million likes for Ortega's posting of the trailer on Instagram.

Linking worldofreel as a source should warrant warning points

How is it different from posting ViewerAnnon, Empire City and Daniel RPK? They are all hit and miss, so just take it with a grain of salt.

This is the kind of teaser that's meant to be more of an announcement video - like "hey folks, a Beetlejuice sequel is coming - and it is going to be an actual sequel, not a reboot, with all of the characters you know and love plus Jenna Ortega" (cue closeups of all the characters).

 

Personally, I'm psyched. I have time to adjust my expectations downwards if reactions/reviews/full trailers are terrible.

 

Peace,

Mike

A film can survive  a bad first teaser...remember how bad the first teaser for "Frozen" was?

[WebSurfer]

I saw the first film recently; it's not really my cup of tea, but I can see potential in the sequel. 

[WebSurfer]

Honestly, I think a third film would be a perfect idea, just so they can use the full Beetlejuice call.
