Is it better to accelerate the marketing plan with an immediate splash that brands “Neighborhood Watch” as an absurdist comedy about interplanetary threat? Or should the studio lie low for a while with its advance publicity, waiting for the passions around Mr. Martin’s death to cool, even if that means fewer weeks in which to sell a July picture? 

If the Trayvon Martin controversy deepens, Fox could be pressed further, for instance to retitle or delay the film. But Hollywood’s conventional wisdom still says that such changes usually compound the problem.

Not that uncommon for trailers to include scenes or shots not in the final movie cut. {nm} DTravel Apr 09, 12:11

They're saying it was never intended to be in the final movie. {nm} Antibody Apr 09, 12:15
