I noticed especially in the last two or three years that they give away wayyy too much ironclad Send a noteboard - 15/09/2011 08:42:55 AM
I don't like much how trailers are handled in the last two decades or so. Most of them are just applied recipes nowadays, vert unimaginative. I prefer the old fashioned ones.

I don't want a trailer to show me anything but super short glimpses of the second half of the film or particularly the showdown. I don't want them to tell me the summary of the first half, either. But yet that seems to happen so much lately. Annoying.

You mustn't be afraid to dream a little bigger, darling.

True. 80% of the trailer should be the first twenty minutes. Not An Hava - 15/09/2011 08:03:26 PM 901 Views
