Universal is also planning to skip (but they rarely ever attend Hall H anyway)

I'd imagine with Frosty's deep ties, The Fall Guy could still be a "surprise" trailer at his Collider SDCC Hall H presentation.

BSL confirms that is what he was told too, but he said Marvel wasn't coming last year, but they did so he didn't want to post it.

It really makes more sense for something like 300, DISTRICT 9, etc with low or diminished expectations that can cut a great first trailer

It's about $2 million on average (obviously a little cheaper for the non-majors) may have gone up. About 1/3rd a Superbowl Spot.

its like awards season, it was completely built by publicists. Heres an event that is totally meaningless that we can charge huge fees for!
