Except they do a really poor job making a decent entry point for anyone who sees the movies and even has a desire to get into the comics. Though apparently the movie is at least fasttracking a big collection of the Annihilation series that the current GoG incarnation came out of, so there's that.

We already knew he wore the mask. The bootleg trailer showed it.

I'm pretty excited for this. Really interesed in seeing Diesel's performance as Groot and Cooper's voice acting for Rocket Raccoon. That raccoon better rock the shit out of this film. LOVE that character.

I'm surprised that wouldn't have been locked in by now.

Yeah. New property in the genre, different as hell, etc. I'd assume they already had one.

the argument against was that they spent similar money on John Carter and Lone Ranger and it didn't pay off.

Ehhhh. I dunno about that. Lone Ranger was between $225-250 million and John Carter was $250 million. The Avengers was $220 million. I don't think GotG would get that. Marvel is pretty good at budgets... Sometimes too good from all the actors being paid came out too.

Plus... The audience seems to love the Marvel brand. I do wonder wtf Ant-Man and GotG comes out to in box office. Those two are very different from the Marvel norm so far, which is exciting.

Damn. That sucks. A film like this needed something like that. what was Marvel's mindset for that?

They obviously have cleaned up footage and some cgi done from this based what the bootleg showed.

I thought they wouldn't do it. Not a mainstream enough of property.

That means next nothing with the Super Bowl. All you need to do is cut something awesome and people will notice. The god awful Van Helsing got a Super Bowl spot and it opened pretty big. Didn't do much after that, but point is most who went to see it opening weekend probably first took notice during the 2004 game.

/\ Van Helsing had a movie star in the leading role; Guardians does not.

I am excited for Guardians footage, but I think spending $4 million dollars six months in advance is kind of crazy.

Probably a better idea to include a Guarians trailer in front of Captain America Winter Soldier
