I'm surprised/amazed they are premiering it in LA tonight instead of doing it the same time everywhere. I thought they were worried about leaks, preserving the surprises and all that.

Or are they making tonight's audience sign NDAs and turn in their cell phones?

This is exactly what happened. Besides the crazy amount of police/security surrounding the area to begin with (this thing was as big/bigger than the Oscars) they had loads of security in the auditoriums during the screening of the movie watching for people who didn't check their phones at the entry.

Well, they sure did make me wait a long time. Got the keys, that unlock in 40 minutes, 5 minutes ago.

Not a big deal, but it was interesting to me that the vast majority of scenes in the trailers are from the first 1/3rd of the film. Only other big movie I can think of in recent years to do that was Interstellar last year, which also had most of its trailers cut with first act material.

Andrew, that's a trailer done right. I'm so tired of trailers spoiling the plot of a movie, so maybe this one still has some surprises left.

Independence Day
Star Trek
Captain American
Batman Vs Superman

We're sticking to our general policy of about 10 minutes in trailers. I think it winds up being just short of 9 minutes, but close enough.

Currently no such thing as a 4K 3D file. Has anyone seen a 4K 2D of a 3D release?
