CaptTurnerI understand what you are saying and I partially agree. However also remember this trailer is on youtube posted by Red Bull and has 51,000+ views there as well with a few mentions of the possible quad in the comments. Either way it looks like a sick movie!
true, i didn't think about that. and yeah, don't get me wrong, it looks sick, and i really applaud them if they are going the route of not shouting about a quad and leaving it for the movie
CabbyArrantBut you also have to look at what is the size of the audience they expect to appeal to. I agree those other videos have garnered a very large number of views but that doesn't account for the amount of time they have been out which furthers the amount of time they can gain hype. This type of marketing has been used before. If I remember correctly Beyonce released an entire album in secret but when people found out there was more hype than if they had promoted its release.
yeah true. i mean, i guess what we're debating here depends on what their supposed goal is-- just getting hype and attention to them, or trying to sell more copies of the movie? because if it's the former, i think posting a full clip of it and announcing it is the way to go (exposure-wise). but if theyre more concerned with selling the movie, maybe youre right, and the beyonce approach will be rewarded. either way, like i said, i think it's sick
