I feel like looking at random ideas in a brainstorming session and making judgments is incredibly dumb

It's not like into the spider verse immediately emerged from one of those as a perfect idea.

"Dude, remember spider pig from the Simpsons movie? What if we took a bunch of cool cross media spider beings and had them team up?

People love the porky pig voice!"

If that email had been released early the fans would have been rabid


Endgame had Fortnite and dabbing too. They were a little cringey but nothing terrible or anything

They probably emerged from a similar brainstorming session

uhhh, I thought both of these were really well placed jokes, not pandering

Right

But there's probably an email out there of a similar nature to the Spiderman one suggesting "hey let's put Fortnite in Endgame somehow".

Oh. I don't know, that part seemed like it was pretty well-tuned to the exact context it was in, like "we need them to meet Thor but Thor is a total deadbeat now, what should he be doing, I know he'll be playing Fortnite, that's funny"

I thought the dabbing was fine. It's clearly not meant to be an actual "Look, dabbing is cool, Hulk's cool, this is cool, our audience will like this!" thing. It was Hulk trying too hard to be cool and fit an image. It's supposed to be awkward.

i get that that scene is supposed to be awkward (including ant-man thinking the kids want his autograph too even though they don't know him at all), i just didn't think it was funny or amusing or well-written in the least. the office UK did this awkward humor style a million times better.

the hulk scene with the kids is great. he's finally accepted the way he always wanted to be and it's by playing along with these kids and their silly thing

this is definitely an "I dont understand kids anymore therefore this is dumb" situation from you guys

Sure, which is exactly my point. Those two things were added and it was relatively fine and inoffensive, certainly nothing that detracted from the movie or anything. So they found a way to incorporate something like that in a reasonable way. But a leaked email saying "yeah, Hulk should dab, that's a big thing with the kids at the moment" would likely look similarly bad to that Spider-man one, no? Although I would say the suggestions in the Spider-man one are a little bit worse. But maybe that's because the suggestions were out of context, and maybe if they were put in the movie without me having seen the email, I wouldn't really think twice about them. Depends on implementation.

Obviously I don't know if, with the Endgame examples, such an e-mail exists. But the mere existence of the thing isn't intrinsically bad until you see how they include it.

Well, the difference is the tone

Hulk dabbing clearly wasn't added to actually appease the audience or anything. It was intentionally part of an awkward scene.

The Sony email was completely "We should add these things in because they're popular with Millenials!"

It'd be similar if Hulk dabbing was legit meant to be a "Oh man, look how cool Hulk is!" moment, but it wasn't. It was basically making fun of dabbing. The Sony email was full of "Do you know how COOL and FRESH and 100 and TRUE TEA and TURNT these things would be?! Did I use those words right I bet I used those words right we totally get kids!"

Come on, the Fortnite thing is 100% product placement. Don't act like that was an organic decision by the creators out of some artistic vision.

And yet, it was still funny and made sense because the writers are competent!

It very well could have been product placement, but it could also be that Fortnite is literally the most popular thing in the world (or it could have been both).

I guess we'll never know.

There was literally an Avengers event in Fortnite where you can make Thanos dance. It's a cross-promotion.

it's a little weird though. like, does fortnite even need advertising at this point? when they did the Thanos event I could see it being worthwhile; now i'm actually inclined that it was put it mostly because the writers thought it was funny/it was popular and default

I mean...it's advertising. Of course they need it. Companies spend a preposterous amount on money on it and Endgame promotions are STILL GOING. No joke I'm sitting here in a restaurant, they have NFL Network on, and I just saw the Endgame logo on a car ad or some shit.

Edit: my bad it was a DirectTV ad

I'm fairly certain knew that was going to happen in Endgame when they inked the deal for the Infinity War event. Decent chance it both Fortnite events and the Endgame scene were all part of the same negotiation.

There was a decent chance they already had the gaming scene as a potential scene in the movie and they went and approached various companies about cross-promotion.

It's deleted because it was based on twitter threads from movie insiders and the Movies reddit board doesn't view that as a valid source. There were at least 4 different twitter reporters who were teasing or confirming the same thing so I'd put about 90% stock in that being accurate.
