I Love it.
Kind of wish it had more action in it to appeal to more people.
I almost feel like Marvel ain't marketing it to the general mass with these trailers.

I dunno, I think it is going to hit well with non-comic fans, I'll have to see my wife's reaction to this.

I think it'll be accepted well but how much?
I've faith in this movie. Love the cast and crew. Love the property. So... Anyone else see that purple in there? Infinity Stone... Possibly. I can't tell from my phone.

The movie looks like a fun space adventure, I think the release date, with the tie in with the Disney/Marvel publicity and I think they are going to hit on all the right targets.

Its the 21st century, it is okay for women to like fantasy/Sci-fi. We saw how popular Comic book movies/Avatar were.

Yeah. It's much more SW relaxed in comparison to something like 2001.
It's an action adventure. Which is what the trailer is doing well in showing. The stakes are high but these characters ain't taking themselves that serious.

Although with regards to marketing, I am a little surprised they haven't played up the connection to the rest of the Marvel Universe. A brief shot of Benicio doesn't count.

Not sure how any imagery of the regular MCU could benefit to this trailer. Unless they flashed an image of Thanos. Cuz... This is a no earth movie.

I would still think they would teach that "ain't" isn't a real contraction, especially by college level. "Ain't" is typically associated with Redneck/White Trash America where the literacy rate is in the single digits, but whatever.

I use it for fucking emphasis. Kind of like fuck but not fuck. But not butt fuck. Just fuck.
I read a little blurb about this new trailer some time ago. It talked about what it would have. A rumor mill thing. Seems like it resembles what they described.

Are we really arguing about the use of "ain't" on the internet? People use "ain't" all the time. Typically, the people that take the time to type "ain't" know quite well that it is not proper, and use it for effect. Something like typing out "This ain't my first rodeo".
Back to this awesome movie now.

I bet you drop some f-bombs in your formal papers. I don't think it is possible for you to write 10+ pages without dropping at least one f-bomb. It is like asking an addict to go all day without shooting up.

I thought you would draw more attention to the missing "taking" than the word "ain't".

ain't
\ˈānt\
Definition of AIN'T
1 : am not : are not : is not
2 : have not : has not
3 : do not : does not : did not —used in some varieties of Black English
Usage Discussion of AIN'T:
Although widely disapproved as nonstandard and more common in the habitual speech of the less educated, ain't in senses 1 and 2 is flourishing in American English. It is used in both speech and writing to catch attention and to gain emphasis <the wackiness of movies, once so deliciously amusing, ain't funny anymore — Richard Schickel> <I am telling you—there ain't going to be any blackmail — R. M. Nixon>. It is used especially in journalistic prose as part of a consistently informal style <the creative process ain't easy — Mike Royko>. This informal ain't is commonly distinguished from habitual ain't by its frequent occurrence in fixed constructions and phrases <well—class it ain't — Cleveland Amory> <for money? say it ain't so, Jimmy! — Andy Rooney> <you ain't seen nothing yet> <that ain't hay> <two out of three ain't bad> <if it ain't broke, don't fix it>. In fiction ain't is used for purposes of characterization; in familiar correspondence it tends to be the mark of a warm personal friendship. It is also used for metrical reasons in popular songs <Ain't She Sweet> <It Ain't Necessarily So>. Our evidence shows British use to be much the same as American.
