This is a community for posting and sharing trailers and teasers for upcoming film, television and video game premieres. The goal is to provide subscribers a curated feed of trailers for UPCOMING media. General-purpose posts about movies, television and games are better suited for other communities around the Lemmyverse. This place is just for trailers.

Rules

  1. All posts must be trailers or teasers; not full movies, not trailers for trailers, and not clips of popular scenes. Meta posts from mod staff are OK, but should be kept to a minimum.
  2. No fan-made trailers or remixes.
  3. Trailers for upcoming content only. Do not spam the community with trailers for media that has already been released.
  4. Link to official channels for trailers whenever possible (ie: the YouTube accounts of each film's studio or distribution company); avoid linking to videos from media outlets that function as aggregators / re-posters if you can.
  5. Post titles should follow formatting guidelines: "Media Name (release year, relevant creator credit)". Creator credits should be directors for films and games, showrunners for television series. Other details such as starring actors, writers, production studios, etc can be added to the post description.
  6. Don't be a jerk.

I dunno, I don't think it'll do well in theaters.

Trying to take off from where the show was and expect people to pay up to see it in theaters rather than just wait until it's streaming alongside all the rest of the MCU seems dubious.

Tbh, I can't see any of the characters that moved to series doing well in theaters as individual movies. I'm not even sure people would go if it was supposed to be all the ? -remaining movie avengers moving the "universe" forward to a next stage.

Right now, it's all fractured, and Thor is probably the only one left that could pull big numbers into seats simply because he's the only one that hasn't switched formats.

Spider-Man could, but he's also not a TV/streaming immigrant, nor is he as constrained by the MCU aqs a whole, as far as audiences are probably concerned.

I never watched Falcon & Winter Soldier. The American military industrial complex corner of the MCU is dreadfully boring. I guess there are Call of Duty people out there who might be into this, but I want more weird shit. Guardians of the Galaxy 3 living space stations, Dr Strange dimensions shuffling, Sandman, Preacher. If you're making comic book movies and not ripping my concept of reality to shreds, you're not showing up ready to play.

I'm mostly with you there.

The key difference for me being that I'm fine with small amounts of the political/military stuff here and there to give a bit of perspective. That's why I liked the show, it brought the scale of things back to a relatable level. But it should have been just that, then moved back into where the MCU was going.

We can get political thrillers and conventional action/adventure anywhere. The MCU is really the only place for the, as you said, weirs shit. Even in horror, fantasy and sci-fi, getting the kind of genre crossing strangeness that's MCU can provide just isn't common.
