Guardians of the Galaxy 2 - Teaser.

[Tawmis]

How is there not a thread about this?

I have the trailer on our site:

Thought the trailer was meh.

[Tawmis]

Well, it's not even really a trailer. It's a teaser.

[Phil]

Yeah, didn't think much of it, to be honest.
I'm sure the actual film will be good, but the teaser may as well have been deleted scenes from the first film.

[-K-M-]

Agreed. I didn't like any of the first movie trailers, but I really enjoyed the film

shouldnt have used the same song

[Tawmis]

I think the same song was used, because it's iconic to the movie. It's like saying, "They shouldn't use the Star Wars theme for Star Wars."

[Phil]

It's not though; the theme for Star Wars was written for Star Wars, and has the name of the film in the title.
Hooked On A Feeling was a pre-existing song, written for a different purpose that happened to be just one of the songs on the soundtrack used for the film.

Although there's a strong chance it wont actually be in Vol.2.

[Le Messor]

Being from the first trailer makes it more memorable.

And li'l Groot was sooo adorable!

"I watched Titanic when I got back home from the hospital, and cried. I knew then that my IQ had been damaged."
~ Stephen King

[Phil]

Oh, I'm not saying it's not memorable; just not iconic.

[Le Messor]

Well, not iconic to this particular film. You're right there.

[Tawmis]

Iconic? No. But you don't associate specific songs to specific movies, because they were a part of the soundtrack?

Also, I wonder since this was a teaser, they don't want to give away too much of the movie (obviously) and may not want to give away the score for Vol 2 (since Vol 1 was a pretty big hit).

[Le Messor]

Iconic? No. But you don't associate specific songs to specific movies, because they were a part of the soundtrack?

Yep. I'd basically forgotten Hooked On A Feeling until GotG 1 came along.

... may not want to give away the score for Vol 2 (since Vol 1 was a pretty big hit).

Activate pedant mode!
Pedant mode activated, sir.

We're talking about the songs... the score would be the original background music (by Tyler Bates for #1).

Shut off pedant mode.
Pedant mode off.

*whew*. That's good; nobody likes a pedant.

[Legerd]

I'm thinking the advertising will stick to the limited number of songs Starlord has in his two tape collection.

[Le Messor]

True, but the second tape will give us a whole new album's worth to explore.

[Phil]

it's iconic to the movie

Iconic? No.

Which is it? :P

But you don't associate specific songs to specific movies, because they were a part of the soundtrack?

Maybe that's because I still the song with Ally McBeal...

Also, I wonder since this was a teaser, they don't want to give away too much of the movie (obviously) and may not want to give away the score for Vol 2 (since Vol 1 was a pretty big hit).

Oh yeah, I totally agree, and referenced it was a teaser.
Maybe I just don't like teasers.
