New TV Spot And Contest For The Avengers

Marvel’s The Avengers is only a month away. That means we can expect to see more and more trailers and featurettes appearing on television and online. The promotional blitz for the film is huge and seemingly never ending.

The trend continues today with a new TV spot, that can be seen below. It’s only 30 seconds but fear not, with a marketing budget of $100 million, I think it’s safe to say that this definitely not the last piece of promotional material that we’ll see.

Check it out below.

Along with a new TV spot, there is a contest for all Avengers fans out there, courtesy of the film’s Facebook page. Check out the details below, and be sure to read it in its entirety.

“Marvel Studios announced today that “Marvel’s The Avengers” will reward its fans on Facebook for their continued support of the film’s campaign with advance screenings in cities around the world on a first-come-first-served basis. In the U.S. fans will be able to experience the film in stunning IMAX® 3D.

This unprecedented screening event will enable Facebook fans of “Marvel’s The Avengers” in cities that have assembled the most fans on Facebook to win the first access to screenings of the film, weeks before the May 4th release in theatres. This event will kick off on April 14th at 10 a.m PDT with the top five cities in the U.S. with the most fans on Facebook: Los Angeles, New York, Chicago, Houston and Miami.

The next five cities to garner the most Facebook “Marvel’s The Avengers” fans will be awarded an early screening as well – to be announced shortly on Facebook. Fans can rally for their city to be the chosen location for this special opportunity by going to Facebook.com/Avengers for details. International fans should visit their local “Marvel’s The Avengers” Facebook page for more details on how to win a screening in their city.
