 * >I don't think keeping Black's involvement in the film a surprise was a good idea

But that's what they've been doing for the past half-a-year... If it had stayed a secret, it would at least seem like an artistic decision. But now I'm starting to suspect Black may have signed some sort of contract while working on The House with a Clock in Its Walls that prevented him from appearing in advertisements for competing movies within a certain time frame.


 * >those people will regain interest in the film

It just seems like it's too little too late. The general public isn't even aware of this film. And his appearance in the trailer is immediately followed by the Gummy Bear Song. I don't know if this trailer will change many peoples' minds about the film.
