How do you know this?

A Feb 2015 preview would be about a year ahead of release, how is that "desperate"?

I first saw a preview from Intersteller December of 2013 (possibly Nov, but I think Dec since big movies do like dropping initial teasers around the Holidays), that was a good 11 months ahead of release. I don't think anyone claimed "desperation!".

edit: iirc, 'Big Hero Six' I think was months before that, cos I vaguely recall my son being bummed out when I told him he had to wait over a year to see it.

The rumor isn't February. It's apparently set to hit in the next 2 months.

Ah this must be my mistake, man. When you said BvS is being overmarketed, I thought you were referencing the marketing materials that were actually released. It turns out you are saying its being overmarketed with something that doesn't even exist.

Yes talking about potential rumoured marketing. Nothinh they've actually done so far. So I could be b****ing over nothing.

I'd personally love to see something now, cos I personally got a little wet with that teaser they showed awhile back at whichever comic convention it was. Granted, not as wet as the Avengers: AoU one, since that was a proper preview.

But 2 months isn't too long, can't wait.

Oh yeah that was frigging Awesome. And I'd get all wet over some new footage too.

But then I'd remember when I'm going to get to see this and get pissed off!

Query: What makes you go with "OF COURSE" they are copying Marvel?

Is this "copy" in this case having a movie with more than one superhero in it?

lol.. I guess you are forgetting the fact that WB/DC has copied Marvel when they have released their movie schedule far in advanced of them actually making the films.. Remember Marvel did that first when they come out and say what film is coming out(insert date) , and eventually who will star.. WB/DC is doing the EXACT same thing by announcing dates of films and later on saying who is in them, etc.. The only thing WB/DB has not copied Marvel is the fact that WB/DC is doing Team up film first , rather than solo film first

You know, I suspect you didn't really lol just now

If I didn't address it in the other post I made, my point was that it seem ed pretty darn odd to get news on a trailer right after AoU's teaser dropped.

But it appears I was misinformed on the specifics of that as well so...my bad?!

Well there will be a WW solo film first. There's anyway a Superman solo film. So t they're doing a mix of some solo' s first and other solo's after.

I pray each and every day armchair marketers simply stfu and just enjoy what's being presented to us. Or in this case wait for the material to come out before jizzing hatred or even worse - give out wannabe market analysis.

Unless you are actually negatively impacted by having a teaser trailer come out earlier then it originally would have. That I'd suggest something else entirely to deal with a pressing issue.

To be fair to you, my apparent anger is with the masses in a general sense since they spout even worse bullshit on a daily basis. Nothing personal.

That's the point...some people...cough cough QUAN...have the notion that DC & Marvel are living sentient beings that hate & try to out-do eachother in a never-ending constant battle for supremacy.

Both COMPANIES have a marketing division that decides the publicity for each film.

Christ, just be lucky you live in an age where your comic book heroes can finally be translated into live action on the big screen with a big budget to boot.

Dude I already admitted to being wrong about that, what the crap man.

Edit: Though I still find it weird that nobody finds it the least bit suspicious that DC didn't release this new until after the AoU trailer dropped.

Perhaps because it would seem overly eager to put out the first trailer for BvS Before the first trailer for Avengers 2 is out, when BvS is coming out a frigging year after Avengers 2!

They would not have to put out a trailer but just news of one. Especially since all the fans had up until this point was the comi-con bit.

^ I hope the comic-con bit is all they give us again. It's way too early for more than that. It would just be so frustrating seeing a portion of the action for a movie we have to skip past the whole of next year to see.

Although I wouldn't mind hearing a little bit of Affleck's Batman voice.

So true.

Your jokes aside, they both copy from each other; Marvel has some glaring idea thefts on their side, which is nothing new:

Thanos = Darkseid rip-off

Deadpool = Deathstroke rip-off

Gladiator (Kallark) = Superman (Kal-El/Clark) rip-off
