In a brilliant stroke of marketing, fans of Marvel Entertainment’s films can get a sneak peek of Guardians of the Galaxy on July 7th, 2014 along with 17mins of exclusive footage in select IMAX theatres for free.
Hopefully what is presented will be enough to salivate the most hungry fans interested in this next part of this Phase 2 saga leading up to Avengers 2: Age of Ultron.
When a crazy Star Lord (Peter Quuill) steals an orb from a vault, all he ends up doing is perhaps getting into a ride of the century. He has to ally himself with “branded” criminals to become the Guardians of the Galaxy.
As a token of thanks to those hard-core fans and Marvelites, a special poster (depicted left) will be offered to show attendees. They can see if a local theatre is listed and register here for a pass. ID is required at time of redemption.
While many Canadians were celebrating Victoria Day, a day named after one of the historical British monarchs, other nerdy type Canadians were instead hailing Facebook’s special Guardians of the Galaxy Q & A in the morning and Marvel’s newly released trailer by the afternoon.
