The only poster for this movie I've liked. Good job Russia.
How do you know they're not in the movie?

Just noticed that the marketing for this film is the opposite of the marketing for the 1998 Godzilla film.
It just needs the tagline "Size Does Matter".

It's interesting that in this poster they use Guardians of the Galaxy as the selling point, while in the US, it's the Avengers.
They had From the studio that brought you GOTG on the last US poster, so hitting all the bases I guess.

I don't with any real certainty, but given the scope of the story shown in the trailers, it wouldn't make much sense for them to be in it, and additionally, wouldn't them being in this count towards the number of Marvel films they are contracted to do? I can't imagine Marvel would have any cameos in this if it meant they'd have to renegotiate contracts with Chris Evans or RDJ.*

This is easily the least-excited Marvel film in years. Nobody's talking about it everywhere like they were for Captain America or Avengers or Guardians or Iron Man or Thor
They look really unprofessional imo. I would have guessed they were fan made.
This on the other hand looks awesome.

Level headed interpretation: Because marketing has been wholly poor for this movie, trailers and posters included, this is their best shot at getting people interested in Ant-Man. It conveys his size and relative level of impression in the public's psyche. This is the best shot at getting people talking about the movie.
Snarky interpretation: They have nothing to lose by banging heavily on the bigger Avengers characters, might as well throw this against the wall and see if it sticks. Marvel Pscyhophants will eat it up regardless. After all, they're feverishly setting the table for crow to be served to people that are non-believers..

Shame we can't get that Russian poster in English. That'd be a nice poster to hang on my wall. Infinitely better than the typical "Marvel posters" we've gotten for this so far.

If he is, he barely is. Plus at least GotG has the benefit of being a space themed action/adventure movie. That was much more familiar and easy to market then a guy whose main power is that he shrinks and talks to bugs.
if desperation will pay the bills, go for it
"riskiest"
It's not a risk at all, I would say. Especially with that cast and that it's carrying the Marvel brand name. Even if it's tracking as much as Thor and Cap 1, it's not a bad thing at all. It'll be okay.

God's had his chance.
Haha...kind of clever. I dig it.

You were made in very poor taste.

HOLY SHIT IT'S BILLY GUNN
Also eagerly anticipating Ant-Man showing up in the fight against Ultron with his ant buddies somehow
It's pretty neat, but I can't help but feel it's a bit desperate. Not that I think it's gonna be a flop, but it seems that they realized they fucked up big time with the early promotional material and now they're trying to play catch-up to get some hype going.
I think it'll be profitable, but it'll probably be on the low end of Marvel's box-office returns, about $350-500 million. I'm just not really feeling this movie, and I don't know anyone who's excited for this movie either. I feel the same way about this that I felt about Thor 2 : "Oh, okay. I guess I'll check that out at some point."

I mean we can go ahead and throw him on Hulk's bulge too if it'll please you.
If you think using Black Widow's boobs in a mock ad is not poor taste, then I'm glad my opinions diverge from yours.
After all, the official ads only used Iron Man's armor, Thor's hammer, and Captain America's shield. The fans' brilliant idea was to use Black Widow's boobs.

Yeah, that was kind of the point.

can you pm me black widow's email so i can apologize to her on neogaf's behalf?
Well... I mean, yeah, why wouldn't you? It's not like he isn't going to be on that team.
They should have made a poster of Ant Man sticking out of The Hulk's pocket or sitting on Hawkeye's arrow as it takes off.
Or this...
why bother when
we're totally going to see that in Civil War?
Broken Joystick
At least you can talk. Who are you?
fuck you guys, I'm excited for this movie!
This is my feeling as well even though I like the posters a lot
That's an awful poster.
