DL: Will Comic-Con Leaks Of 'Suicide Squad' And 'Deadpool' Stop Studios From Showing Exclusive Footage in Comic-Con? Peterlee Jul 12, 17:53

studio insiders state that Comic-Con organizers need to improve the security, "or there will be fewer special presentations going forward" {nm} Peterlee Jul 12, 17:55

on the other hand, the comic-con trailers of 'Suicide Squad' and 'Deadpool' will not be formally released on the Internet {nm} Peterlee Jul 12, 17:57

It is true that the studios are bringing less and less exclusive content as almost all of it leaks {nm} notfabio Jul 12, 18:16

Though typically speaking the longer material doesn't (the longer clips from Warcraft, Hateful Eight for example) notfabio Jul 12, 18:19

...and presumably no one was super motivated to record Patient Zero/Pride and Prejudice & Zombies... notfabio Jul 12, 18:20

the idea of showing something to 1000s of people and expecting it to stay secret is ludicrous (and the studios know it) {nm} islander Jul 12, 18:20

I don't think they expect it to stay secret.. Just don't want entire clips recorded. BUt hey thats the chance you take. {nm} Dorfman Jul 12, 18:35

I think we all agree, you can't demonstrate any goodwill to the public. {nm} goodvibe61 Jul 12, 21:26

Whatever. Then don't show anything to the public, see where that gets the studios {nm} islander Jul 13, 04:44

Hopefully they'll go through a reactionary phase where that's exactly what they do. I think it'd be great if they witheld more goodvibe61 Jul 13, 09:36

What would be the end result, if they didn't bring some footage to a convention months prior to a film's release? {nm} goodvibe61 Jul 13, 10:11

Not necessarily. Not if the proper security is in place it isn't. {nm} goodvibe61 Jul 13, 09:40

Who knows what Tarantino would have done if his clip got leaked.. {nm} Dorfman Jul 12, 18:20

"Oh no! People who are clamoring to see my movie are sharing their enthusiasm with their friends online! How can I ever stop them!?!?" :) {nm} islander Jul 12, 18:22

hahaha WEll he freaked out and scrapped the movie when the first script got leaked.. {nm} Dorfman Jul 12, 18:24

script is different though. you dont release that to audiences. once you show finished product as part of your marketing, its fair game {nm} islander Jul 12, 18:27

yah but part of the point is it isn't finished product. {nm} Dorfman Jul 12, 18:29

fine. once you show *product* as part of your marketing... ;) {nm} islander Jul 12, 18:34

hehehe {nm} Dorfman Jul 12, 18:35

That's the rationalization. {nm} goodvibe61 Jul 12, 21:34

It would be SO MUCH BETTER to go into a Tarantino movie cold, not knowing ANYTHING. Doesn't anybody in the world understand that anymore? goodvibe61 Jul 13, 10:17

i tend to agree, i prefer to go into a movie cold, but I've also read the script for every Tarantino movie after death Proof prior to Moviesnob Jul 13, 10:41

Nothing will happen. It's part of comic con and the studios well know it. They can choose either to be presented at SDCC or not. Up to them. {nm} AgentEvil Jul 12, 20:05

If it's in good enough condition to show it to any of the public, then it's in their best interest for it to leak. {nm} MiyazakiFan Jul 13, 07:56

Not necessarily. Not at all. {nm} goodvibe61 Jul 13, 09:44

they aren't idiots. they know these things happen {nm} Moviesnob Jul 13, 09:54

Definitely. Comic Con is not some closed industry event. There is no reason to limit it to a small audience. MiyazakiFan Jul 13, 14:42
