raccoons, harder to draw than small children.
Steve Wilkos?
In the comics he is an earth raccoon genetically engineered to be a security guard for an mental institution planet. But in this his species will probably just look like earth raccoons.
It's only 30 seconds at the end of the vid a british guy calls them a holes. I wouldn't post it up on here either because it's almost too coincidental how fast they are taken down

I think a problem with this movie is that, like me, I doubt a lot of people have ever heard of the comic(?) characters
And it's going to be marvelous.

Do you think the majority of viewers heard about Thor or Iron Man before watching the movies?
My nephews (6-10 yr olds) seem to be getting the message out just fine. They're already looking forward to the movie, having never read the comic.
People were saying the same thing about the Avengers of all things. It will be fine.

I'm hyped beyond belief.
Yup yup yup. It's gonna be awesome.
Avengers 2 hype kinda deflated when they announced they were doing a Pimless Ultron.

Currently polling second in Australia's federal election (first in the Gold Coast), this feral may one day be your Bogan King.
As great as Rocket Raccoon is, marketing for this film I think will benefit tremendously by focusing on the "band of misfits" cast diversity and sheer lunacy of the spectacles. Showing strong, likeable characters with interesting, snappy banter between then has a better chance of luring in new fans as they quickly grow attached to particular groups of characters and want to see how they develop.
It's not an impossible thing to market a blockbuster/superhero movie without having the groundwork done by pop culture. If it were, we'd have no original premises ever. They just need to remember marketing it as something familiar, like The Avenges, isn't going to work. It's gotta be marketed as a fun new adventure, not a culmination of familiar faces.
EDIT: I also think it's impossible to judge how this will be received until Marvel actually bother pushing it in the mass market streams.

I believe the solution to this is to distribute trailers featuring a raccoon firing a submachine gun.

Nice! He did a great job doing the VO for The Iron Giant.

Don't be silly, of course they have. They're pretty iconic chars who've been around for decades. How many adults(who buy the tickets) have really heard of anybody from Guardians?

No one knows who jake sully and neytiri are! Their movie is definitely going to bomb big time.

Remind me... is Annihilus packaged in with the Fantastic Four rights? What a blow to the potential of this series if so.
They don't need to. Fun space movie + MARVEL name + big name cast = success
My 11 year old sister is excited for this purely because of Marvel.
From this thread it seems the way things are going Marvel might get all that shit back.

I think you're over estimating their popularity. Iron man at least was beyond obscure. No one knew about him. Even people that followed comics barley knew about him. Saying they have been iconic for decades is ludicrous and simply not true. Iron man has always been obscure up until the 2008 movie lol.
Now thor is a little bit different since he's in nordic mythology. But the comic book interpretation of him? Very obscure before the movies.
Iron Man and Thor were not popular characters among the mainstream audience before the movies in Europe. Before iron man, marvel was synonymous with Spiderman, Xmen and Hulk.
Oh man I didn't even think of that... could very well be. The negative zone is a very FF thing...
Shit.
I want Annihilation GDI.
People saying it going be a hard sell to mainstream public are correct. Unlike Iron Man and the rest GOTG is wayyyy more fantasy and outlandish then rest of Marvel films which are heavily grounded. Thor is closest got to fantasy but it not crazy as GOTG from what we seen so far.
GOTG doing well could open the floodgate for Dr. Strange and the rest more out there series to be made into film

As far as I know, only Reed, Sue, Ben, Johnny, Doom, and Galactus are tied up with Fox. The Silver Surfer rights just reverted back to Marvel recently.

Nope. Marvel can use him. He is not part of that license deal.

Okay I am sold. This looks like it will be the best Marvel movie.
Dayum! Disney gots some mad ninjas!
no one in europe (comic fans aside) knew anything about the two and the films have been huge here. and hell: if a movie about a speaking teddybear (ted) can make millions and be a huge hit, marketing a submachine gun firing racoon should be possible.
edit: and disney/marvel, just release a short teaser trailer in hd, ok?
GotG is basically Abrams Star Trek. Hell, it even has Zoe Saldana. It'll be fine.

Yes. The well-known reputation of Iron Man and Thor made the movies are success. Especially overseas where no one knew about Iron Man, Thor or Captain America except for comic book nerds.
Iron Man was success because of RDJ, great screenplay etc.. Thor and Captain America was a success because it was a movie in the universe Marvel studios created with Iron Man.
