This small trailer snippet thing is so stupid

This small snippet release is driving me insane. You lose impact. Everything is leaking anyway as predicted. Had they just done things the traditional way: trailer drops on this day at this hour, they would've broken YouTube. What do you guys think of this release strategy?

There is 1 year left until the movie's release, this strategy creates a huge hype for the trailer itself, not just for the movie itself.

BillyThe_Kid972025-12-20 18:47

Disagree. Announce day and date of trailer dropping then have a countdown going. Instead of theaters drop it online and it breaks the internet. Now stuff is leaking plus its not clear whats real, whats AI. Its just stupid imo.

A few years ago this might have worked but the AI thing is annoying now

aduong2025-12-20 19:46

I especially agree because of the AI stuff it’s so beyond annoying

RihoSucks2025-12-20 20:17

"Breaking the internet" doesnt make disney money. People going to see avatar does.

Flying_Mohawk2772025-12-21 00:15

Eh… I disagree. The casual viewer probably don’t even know these exists… it’s not helping create hype from the casuals I don’t think.

Halio3442025-12-21 00:23

It’s bombarded across TikTok etc which is where the casual viewer gets their movie news.

Flying_Mohawk2772025-12-21 00:26

I still don’t think it does much…

The issue is everything is confusing.. bringing back people. Having two versions of one actor. No one has any idea what’s going on.

Imo.. this is just another kinda desperate way to get attention.. just like bringing back Evans and RDJ, along with a plethora of other characters.

Yes marketing and trailer produced hype for EG.. but what gained interest in those movies were multiple successes in a row. Great character building. Thanos being around for 5-6 years at that point.

My fiancé.. a causal viewer way he’s it with me and asked what’s happening.. isn’t he old?

Johnny02302025-12-21 08:46

I don't know. RDJ's announcement video is the most viewed on social media overall, while the livestream of the chairs is Marvel's most viewed video ever. You don't get results like that with just fans.

Flying_Mohawk2772025-12-21 10:35

Viewing doesn’t mean it’s actually working or creating hype… it’s just being force fed onto everyone.

I could be wrong. But I think it’s clear that the MCu is a bit worried hence why they’re relying on old popular characters instead of the new ones.

I mean, we just tried establish that Sam a black hero without any serum is just as good as Steve… welp fuck all that… bringing back Steve.

Johnny02302025-12-21 10:38

we are in a historical period in which nostalgia always works

I don't think it's a concern, it's simply the logic for the big final event of the multiverse. The big returns of No Way Home and Deadpool 3 have marked the type of event; Avengers couldn't have done otherwise. I've been expecting these names since they announced the multiverse saga; it was inevitable. In any case, there are new characters.

Flying_Mohawk2772025-12-21 10:45

When you rely on nostalgia it means you haven’t built up your current characters up right.

It’s one thing to have it as a side thing or just part of the movies… but it seems that the old characters are taking over these movies.

IW / EG were done correctly. They built up all the characters. We saw them grow. We saw Thanos for 6 years + before his big appearance. All these characters/ storylines were established before the movie.

This movie we just have Doom (who’s supposed to be on the same level as Thanos). But he looks like RDJ? But we’re going to have a different RDJ as iorn man? Also, Steve with a son is gonna be in it? We have an avengers group, while we don’t even currently have an avengers group. We have new characters being introduced, old x-men characters being brought back..

As of now.. it’s a convoluted mess in which there was zero proper building. They failed to establish a new heroes… so they have to rely on the old. Or why else bring back RDJ and Evans.

I could be wrong. But this movie seems all “epicness” with little heart/ love that IW and EG had

Johnny02302025-12-21 10:55

All of today's cinema is capitalizing on nostalgia: The Hunger Games, The Mummy, Harry Potter, Marvel, DC, Jurassic World, animated films, live-action films (Disney and otherwise), etc. They're all capitalizing on nostalgia. This shows that the problem is deeper and doesn't just concern Marvel. People don't go to the theaters anymore unless it's a major event.

Technically, there wasn't even a group of Avengers in Infinity War.

Flying_Mohawk2772025-12-21 11:02

But the MCU didn’t have to do that.

Most if the movies don’t have heart. And are only “succeeding” based on their names alone. The new Jurassic park movies are terrible, yet they keep making money..

That’s what you want with the MCU?

lol.. cmon.. let’s not compare. There was an entire movie that explained what happened to the avengers pre- IW. Again, there was story buildup. There currently isn’t.

And DC is now on the right track it seems. Their content has been much more consistent. And their shows have been great compared to the mostly meh MCu

The MCU abandoned their original
Formula of slow character building. And they went quantity over quality, dropping as many hero’s as the possibly can.

Johnny02302025-12-21 11:14

I didn't say I'm expecting Jurassic World narratively, just that this is the cinematic context. And in any case, the Avengers situation has been explained in several films; the Avengers simply aren't there anymore, there's not much to add, and Doomsday will initially serve precisely this purpose, just as Endgame and Infinity War served to reunite them. The DCU is banking heavily on nostalgia: I haven't watched the TV series because the platform hasn't arrived here yet, but all the characters that worked are returning, especially those from the Suicide Squad, and the Superman theme is exactly the same as it was 30 years ago.

Flying_Mohawk2772025-12-21 11:53

Dude. You’re being obtuse..

When you solely rely on nostalgia, you’re replacing that with good plot. Most of what you listed isn’t very good content. They’re replacing narrative with fluff.

Right.. avengers aren’t there. But next time we see sam he’s going to be leading an avengers group? Again, for the third time.. there’s no buildup. This movie is going to be half exposition bc there’s nothing explained and it’s all confusing. Especially for people who haven’t been following.

New Super Man used its comic book Themes. That’s not nostalgia, or not in the same way as the MCU. Penguin was fantastic. Peacemaker has been great ( a very smart, clever, and fun way to use multiverse). The new Batman was good. I like the direction they’re going with Super Girl.

Champagnekudo2025-12-21 20:09

You’re reaching with that Superman inclusion. I don’t even love that movie but it’s heavily inspired by conflicts currently going on in the world, which is why it resonated with people the way it did. Boiling it down to using an old theme is such a lazy defense of the MCUs over reliance on nostalgia.

Teex222025-12-21 13:37

It certainly tries to create hype, but it reeks of desperation to me.

Release the trailer, don't release the trailer. Whatever. They've had umpteen years to build hype and are instead trying to cram it into a matter of months by rolling out Steve again.

Johnny02302025-12-21 13:41

What exactly did we expect from the big final event on the multiverse? It's not even a forced introduction; I've been expecting their return since they announced the multiverse saga.

Character_Skirt_43192025-12-20 18:47

I think it’s generated the most hype of any marvel movie in the last 5 years. I’ll take extra snippets plus a teaser. It’s fun

Star_Powerup2025-12-20 19:00

the thing I feel like people are forgetting is that these teasers are not meant for us, or I think specifically in the United states. Avatar is massive overseas and letting people know that characters they like are coming back, might be the thing that makes them want to check it out. I hate to get politics involved but it cant be denied that trumps actions has negatively effected majority of movies coming out this year due to everyone hating America right now

Affectionate-Bus9272025-12-21 03:12

i would say, we don't hate amercia but consider it absolutely ridiculous, also i would say people are smart enough to distinguish between movies or entertainment and politics.

Star_Powerup2025-12-21 03:41

i wish that was true, but after everything that monster did just this year alone, i don't think so anymore i think since franchise like Jurassic Park which used to be billion dollar hits or close didn't do that this year, same with Minecraft which felt like such a safe bet to be a billion dollar hit

Affectionate-Bus9272025-12-21 04:03

no, really people who want to go to see a movie just go to a movie, no matter where it's made, also people don't connect a movie to a particular country. like "oh no we won't go to see the minecraft movie because it's from the usa" no, just no. maybe people just don't have enough money or spent more money on netflix, disney+, apple+, paramount+ etc. even i got 2 streaming services running and go to the cinema just one time a year, for one special movie, because it's freaking expensive.

Star_Powerup2025-12-21 04:18

thats definitely part of it for sure

Buhos_En_Pantelones2025-12-21 00:19

Well it's certainly not 'driving me insane'.

TazzRaymond2025-12-21 10:30

I think it’s a good idea because there’s a lot of negative sentiment towards this movie. Take the Steve Rodgers trailer, they need to get us used to him being back so they drop it a year early so that everyone can make their annoying YouTube videos and get that out of the way. This movie needs to have near perfect marketing, people will need a consistent reminder that this is a movie that’s worth watching.

ReddiTrawler20212026-01-02 23:09

It's raising hype and talk, so not so stupid.
