I detest Fox's last minute approach to marketing. Comic book properties foster constant attention more than any other, so if studios don't maintain a positive energy around a film it will turn sour quick. Conversation will continue, and if the teases dry up the internet will be its usual crazy self and create its own news. A decent push near release will probably work out fine, but Fox need to see the benefit of a sustained buzz when you have us nerds already excited.
.... But-but you do see the enormous differences right?
I mean Black Panther came out already and was good. It pleased critics and broke box office records and became something of a cultural landmark.
Dark Phoenix doesn't even have a trailer yet and has disappeared into the news vacuum of a studio merger.
No different than the scores of people saying Black Panther will win best picture. At the end of the day these are silly comic book films. I can pretty much guarantee BP and XDP will not be getting any creative Oscars.
