It just depends on the movie. A good superhero movie will still pull more money than anyone can spend in a lifetime.

All of the articles are about a movie that wasn't promoted at all, and it's the sequel to a movie that didn't do good anyways. There's zero surprise to anyone with a level head. It's all clickbait rage bs.

I go to A LOT of movies. I have the AMC A List thing so I try to go every week. I have not seen a SINGLE trailer for The Marvels.

Strikes meant that this movie wasn't going to get promoted well.

I was about to ask why airing trailers was against strikes but then it occurred to me that writers are probably still involved in trailers technically lol.
