Project Hail Mary (Phil Lord + Christopher Miller) • Page 2

I’m in even without a trailer, but that poster is super cool.

 

I’m willing to bet the trailer ends with either Rocky’s musical notes, or his hand against the glass

 

Great poster

 

First trailer is out

 

Way, way more in that trailer than I would want to see if I hadn't read the book, but Gosling seems like a great fit for this.

 

That movie is looking to be 1000% my shit.

 

Begging Hollywood to stop giving away every plot point of a movie in a trailer. This movie sells itself without showing half of that trailer.

 

That trailer looks great but man they really couldn't hold back on the alien drop. Where that hits in the book is one of the highlights of the whole damn novel.

 

I thought they’d only hint at it in the trailer, not just explicitly show/say it. It’s a bummer but I think they needed to.

his ship looks sick though

 

Why?

 

I thought the trailer was solid but the whole time I was thinking that it's not really showing off why the book is so great. I think you need to show that if you want people to be interested

I would've cut it when you see his ship, that would've been enough I think

 

I kind of get it, as much as I don't like it. There was a lot of similar conversation around the marketing of Abigail last year. I assume there's some data showing that audiences don't want to be surprised about the type of movie that they're seeing (a straight crime thriller in the trailer that turns supernatural/horror in the second act, for example). And at the same time, if you don't market the wilder genre stuff, the audiences who actually want to see the horror/sci-fi movies won't show up.

 

I’m in

 

trailer looked great, sorry nerds

 

Everyone being like god I hope they don’t ruin the HUGE MASSIVE SURPRISE is more annoying than whatever potential spoiler may have been revealed in that trailer. Movie looks cool tho.

 

I am a believer in the films of Lord & Miller so I am excited for this


(Not sure about them as people but whatever i like the end product)
