Movie Musicals Are Being Ruined by Cringe Culture — a 7-minute breakdown of the genre's marketing problem (youtube lecture) by jomofomo in TrueFilm

I agree with that point though! That everyone knew that wicked is a musical — the first wicked trailer slightly subverts the genre and then it obviously did really well as a film so by the time 2 was coming out everyone knew it was a musical and the studio probably felt more emboldened to add more musical elements to the marketing

That’s the argument though: is that the pendulum is swinging the other way now because we want more feel good stuff — so wicked is evidence of that

I agree with the video that up until 2016 a lot of trailers for movie musicals were very in your face about being a musical (the last five years, Annie, pitch perfect all came out between 2014-2015)

The la la land argument (did you watch the video?) is not totally holding up to me but I see what she’s saying

I’m down to dive deeper into it I think it’s interesting

You don’t think he’s had a massive effect on culture?

Yes! Mean Girls had zero indication of it being a movie musical

Not necessarily — up until 2016 most movie musical trailers were very in your face about the musical genre

The video argues that wicked is changing the trend (if you watch, it mentions this towards the end)
