The Official FF2 Teaser Thread

[Hunter Rider]

So, Fox isn't releasing the trailer online?

Catch up Brodie we've been *****ing about that for pages now

 

[Darren Daring]

This last page was slightly ambiguous

This just adds to the excitement. It's also a great marketing move. The trailer is available to see...go buy a ticket to Night at the Museum. Very smart. It also keeps the talk and speculation online at a high level. Then they release the trailer, then the posters, etc...

Yeah, great move, in theory.

Except that a very large part of the world's population:
A: Don't live in America, where the same trailers get attached to the same films. (I'm in Ireland, so it'll be months before this gets shown in theatres over here, and there's no way of knowing what film it'll be attached to)
B: Don't necessarily want to go and see Night At The Museum.

Damn right, and I happen to be in both categories BTW.

Ditto and hell where i live we are usually getting the old teasers by the time the new ones are hitting the net

No other 2007 blockbuster has so thoroughly isolated a large section of it's fanbase

 

[Darren Daring]

Maybe the trailer will persuade you to see the movie.. Cause you sure as **** ain't getting it any other way.

Even that way I ain´t getting it, I don´t live in US, Night At The Museum hasn´t opened here yet, it could take months, and even if it does the teaser won´t be necessarily attached to the same movies as in US.

 

[3 Dev Adam]

Ah, what the ****, I'm a superhero nut. I'm going to watch the movie and buy the DVD even if the film stinks. Heck, I have ELEKTRA on DVD! And CATWOMAN! And the bootlegged version of Corman's FF!!!!

As a foreigner, you're clearly a backwards and foolish person. As such, you dont' deserve the trailer until later. It's not that big a deal anyway, you just have to wait a bunch longer.

I won´t even dignify that with an aswer. You´re obvious ignore list material.

As a fan he does have a right to be pissed about how FOX is doing this

Jesus, man, I was kidding.

He's just Brodie being Brodie,if he isn't trying to be offensive to get a war of insults going then his purpose is lost,right Brodie ?

Rather than doing it as a genuine dick it's his gimmick

It's not that big a deal. This seems very little like an FF move and very much like a Night at the Musuem Move. I'm sure they'll post the trialer in a few weeks, eveyrone can look at it then. It's jsut a little wait.

it's not a "gimmick". It was a joke. I find your assumptions of me being some kind of rabble rouser offensive. If anything, I was supporting Ultimatefan by pointing out the remarkebly foolish thinking that Fox must be experiencing in relation to the foreign market.

 

[AssMan]

Which is another reason why this should have also been on the web at the same time. The web = MORE PEOPLE CAN SEE THE TEASER & maybe get a few people who has never heard of the Fantastic Four or never saw the first movie interested. Forcing them to see Night At The Museum wont do that

You find it offensive ?i thought given your million bannings you took pride in your loveable heel antics

The movie is released in, what, 6 months? Clearly Fox thinks the public can wait a few weeks to discover FF2 if it'll give Night at the Musuem a boost. It's not like they're never going to put the thing online.

Also, people who feel "forced" to see Night at the musuem are already really into the movie, so I dont' see how that could count as getting the word out.

Off topic-But does anyone know who much it is to run a website?

How are the foreign fans being foolish ? Like I said they have every right to be pissed about how FOX Is doing this. You need to grow the **** up.

Of course I do, but I haven't been dickey for the sake of dickey since ought four.

Patent Clerks Rock.

The foreign fans aren't being foolish, Fox is. In my post, I was imitating and exaggerating the thoughts that Fox executives might have had. As you've duly noted, they are silly silly thoughts.

As for the personal, remark, I can appreciate your frustration with the situation, but I'm not who you should be taking it out on. Perhaps you could build a collage to work out your feelings?

 

[3 Dev Adam]

Welllll...

At least the foreigners got Fox's double editions of CONAN, PREDATOR, PREDATOR 2, PATTON and the ROBOCOP BOX SET a good two years BEFORE the USA...

At least the foreigners got the TWO-disc editions of FF, X3 and an edition of XLG with extra bonuses...

At least the foreigners got Hulk and Back to the Future with the DTS tracks...

At least the foreigners got SR 20 days BEFORE the USA, including the Ultimate Box Set with NO defective discs...

Yeah, not bad to be a foreigner, if you think about it.

 

[AssMan]

You need to make that more clear next time & Im voting for Rocky Balboa to be #1 this weekend in the Box Office t:
