I agree it would be early to comment now, but much gets written during the marketing run-up to release. By that time, not only after release, an easily findable comment can make a lot of impact. Compare how Wikileaks’ comments on “The Fifth Estate”, published before the release, influenced what got written about that movie.
And whoever writes something pre-release will be findable when people look for somebody to weigh in post-release.
Well one idea is write something on your blog and link it to MIRI; PageRank will do the rest :)
Another idea—organize a public movie event with a panel afterwards. Should attract a significant sci-fi fan interest and maybe get some coverage (maybe even use it as a fundraiser?). Louie Helm did this for “Our Final Invention”. Will ping him.

The panel idea—especially if this can be done early, has a lot of value, could boost discussion and also provide a possible influx here.
