The question I have is is advertising even that important anymore. I hear an Infinity War/Spiderman movie is going to be out in 2 months and I'm there. I don't need advertising 4 another movie I would say the same for a Star Wars movie I know it's coming out I don't need to see it trailer all I need to see is the movie. Wanted to get your thoughts on this. Please keep up the good work been listening to you since episode 3.” Paul I wonders if the trailer could “tease the disappearance of Spider-Man and the chaos that is left behind.  Perhaps Tony Stark hands his Spider-Man suit from Infinity War to someone else.....it almost negates the need for any special abilities?  It doesn’t have to reveal how he returns until full trailers after the release of avengers 4 if he returns at all! Is it possible that Marvel have duped us all and have recast a New Spider-Man such as Miles Morales?”   To submit questions to the mailbag, send them to peter@slashfilm.com.
