Remember how Fox show footage from Deadpool at Comic - Con last yr and a pirate version show up online ? Well , that ’s not going to materialize this year . Because Fox wo n’t be giving would - be footage moonshiner the opportunity .
The Wrapreports that 20th Century Fox has decided not to give a presentation in Hall H at San Diego Comic - Con this year . plain , the studio apartment mean it ca n’t prevent any single footage from being pirated and unloosen online , so it ’s settle not to bother promoting its approaching photographic film in the con ’s biggest locus . Fox ’s determination was credibly made even easier by the fact that its only genre movie that will belike have finished footage is Assassin ’s Creed , which does n’t have about the Comic - Con cache of one of the X - Men - associate film .
In one mode , Fox is just following in the step of Warner Bros. , which wasfuriouswhen the Suicide Squad footage was pirate . In another way , it ’s link up Marvel , who also elect not to give Hall H presentations last year — although they did n’t point to piracy as the ground for their absence seizure .
Piracy is certainly a problem if the footage is meant to only be a Comic - Con exclusive . Bootlegged footage is usually bad tone footage , and no studio wants that to be the first thing people see from its flick . But the real reason everyone picture up to San Diego is to get plug and newspaper headline . People being do-or-die to see matter is probably a respectable affair . See Deadpool . head off Comic - Con produce sense if you do n’t intend what you have will get enough attention to justify the expense .
But , if The Wrap report is true , Fox did n’t say “ we do n’t have anything . ” It said , “ We ca n’t trust some masses , so we ’re go to entrust no one . ”
