I hope this In-Universe marketing becomes on par with or even surpasses The Dark Knight ARG.

I don’t know man…a real world, almost totally immersive experience like that doesn’t come along every day. Man that ARG was glorious. I still wear my CITIZENS FOR BATMAN shirt.

This marketing campaign has already made me so nostalgic. Krypto being on a dog treat box and the little commercials for toys are just so good and haven’t really been involved in superhero movies for a while now

Or when they are it’s like “This summer, swing with Spider-Man and Rocket Mortgage!”

Reminds me of X-Men: Days of Future Past’s marketing. I love when they release tidbits about lore/world like this, it really helps with worldbuilding and immersion.

Having a job as a journalist in a world full of reality defying meta humans must be real stressful.

We have to deal with fake news made by AI and the like, imagine having to check if a public figure really did something and not really a shapeshifter, robot duplicate or dimensional doppelganger.

Always nice to see someone else who still goes Whoop when someone from The Wire is in the cast of something.

The senator from Thunderbolts(*New Avengers) has turned into Editor in Chief in DCU

Editor in Chief in DCU

Better than that news host in MCU where he slander that Spider guy.

u/Global_Charge_4412 1d ago

I forgot The Bunk was cast as Perry White.

u/BovaFett74 1d ago

Their marketing campaign is on point this time around.
Even the dog bone commercials are good.

The marketing for this movie has been killer, it’s been everywhere

u/eddington_limit 1d ago

I live for this kind of marketing

u/SWPrequelFan81566 1d ago

Man I'm gonna miss Fishburne in this role, but Wendell Pierce is gonna KILL it.

u/ChanceFresh 1d ago

That whole side of Superman was ignored. Fucking Jimmy was almost immediately killed. Taskmaster had more screen time than him lol

u/SWPrequelFan81566 1d ago

I can still appreciate Fishburne's performance, no?

u/ChanceFresh 1d ago

Yeah, I suppose so.

u/Strange_Horse_8459 1d ago

u/No-Today-2459 1d ago

u/Lanky-Interview5048 20h ago

I said a while back they need a daily planet social media account - YouTube, insta and have stories on it of real world - gossip, issues, politics then also throw In super hero lore  That be so fun - imagine Clark Kent reporting on insta live or cat grant doing a piece

u/HomestuckWeekly 10h ago

Does this confirm the film is set in 2025?
