Whaaaa? That's Nova Prime? Like the leader/apex of the Corps? I'm assuming she's not the one in armor. Though that'd be awesome if she were.

Whatever man, all's good but that's a bit unexpected. I wonder if the article writer got mixed up.

EDIT: This costume for Glen Close would be a hella better.

Now other websites are saying it's not her. Which is confusing because this was reported all over the place. Too bad about that.

I LOVED that footage. The song choice was just perfect and the final lines just encapsulated the entire premise of the team with "Yeah they call themselves the 'Guardians of the Galaxy'"
"What a bunch of a-holes!"

Surely he'll just say "rear end in a top hat" in the movie. Why would they do a G-rated version like that for the trailer

I like the idea of them playing this tongue-in-cheek, because I can't imagine playing too much of this material straight to a wide audience. The tone seems about right from that footage to me.

I wouldn't mind if they kept it because I'll admit I chuckled. I occasionally find it really funny when someone uses 'a-hole' or creative use of bleeping out a curse.

But you have to admit, there's just something about the casual swearing in 80s films. rear end in a top hat, dickless - they just have a charm about them.

A-hole always sounds better than rear end in a top hat. rear end in a top hat is too harsh; a-hole is funny.

Since these are closed events not intended for public consumption they just say "gently caress it" when it comes to music rights. Battlestar Galacatica: Blood & Chrome got in trouble a while back because they used the cover of The Immigrant Song from Fincher's remake of The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo and it got leaked to the public.

I will say that that's only about 30 seconds of the footage that they showed. It starts with Starlord graverobbing/tomb-raiding and getting caught by the Nova Corps, then they introduce each one in custody, which gives Chris Pratt even more opportunity to be hilarious, followed by a scene in the jail thingy where Starlord is listening to the intro to Hooked on a Feeling, which transitions into the clip.

The tone is very much action-comedy, and there is huge potential for it to be hilarious, awesome, and fun. Pretty much all of my worries about this movie washed away after this trailer, and that's coming from someone who was really unimpressed by the Thor 2/Cap 2 footage and the Ultron reveal.

Yeah, I think it's down.

I'll never understand this practice by studios. "People are voluntarily watching ads for our commercial properties and WE MUST STOP THEM IMMEDIATELY!"

Edit: I mean to say, just make clearable versions and throw them online yourself. It's an ad. That people will watch, and that you can run other ads against for additional revenue.

I think creating that kind of "artificial scarcity" (I guess you'd call it) makes people more hyped, not less. People might be annoyed by having to look for it in a shady link or whatever but it's part of hype frenzy. It's the same impulse ARG's are taking advantage of.

Perhaps it's in the nature of television. Just waves in space.
That and the fact things like this are made specifically to be exclusive to the ComicCon crowd, to incentivize them to buy a ticket next year.

Because then there wouldn't be the incentive to go to Comic-Con to see exclusive comic-con only footage? Is this really that complicated. I mean eventually it gets shown as TV spots an stuff when trailers come out. But why would they edit something specifically for Comic-Con then release it right after it?
