'Avengers: Endgame' Footage Leaks on Reddit, YouTube, and Twitter (engadget.com)
Despite Disney's efforts to keep as much of Avengers: Endgame under wraps as possible before the latest Marvel blockbuster hits theaters next week, several minutes of blurry Avengers: Endgame footage have leaked. From a report: The footage reveals some significant plot details, and GIFs, screenshots and descriptions -- none of which we're sharing here -- are spreading across the likes of Twitter and Reddit. Given the level of anticipation and hype surrounding Avengers: Endgame, Disney has trodden very carefully when it comes to revealing information about the movie. Press and critics have yet to see the film and you can bet everyone involved with the production has had to sign iron-clad non-disclosure agreements. However, Disney has shown critics 10 minutes of footage in the US and around 20 minutes in South Korea.

Fixed the headline. Viral Marketing 101: The number of people who will want to see this blurry footage is directly proportional to the number of link take downs.
What is the point in showing critics a tiny snippet of the film like that? Their job is to review the film, the whole film, and there's no way they can do that with only 10-20 minutes.
It's obviously related to marketing somehow, are they hoping that the critics will aid the hype by reviewing just the tiny bit that they saw? "I have no idea about the whole movie, but there's at least ten minutes that are worth watching in there." Would any legitimate critic do that?
