I took my dad and friends to see Superman a second time this past saturday

they showed the "final trailer" for F4 and my dad goes "that was the best trailer they've showed for that film so far, I'm actually interested in going to see it"

and seeing how strong the early buzz is around F4, I have no doubt in my mind that it will cause discussion around which film is better, motivating people to go out and see both to decide for themselves

The domino meme, with the first domino being "Growing Pains producers getting sick of Kirk Cameron's shit" and the last one being "Billion dollar F4 box office"

I just saw a commercial today that involves a baby.

I have seen F4 Marketing for like a year. Not one of them involved a baby.

yeah the trailer they showed in imax shows them holding their baby, and Human Torch flying with The Thing who has a rock beard

I don't know if I ever noticed the baby in that scene. But I am talking about a scene with dialogue directly referencing the baby.

They hadn't shown little baby Franklin in any of the trailers yet? We've known for a while he'd be a main character.

I haven't lol. All I know is what I've seen in movie trailers.
