That makes sense ironclad Send a noteboard - 18/09/2011 01:18:14 PM

It's annoying, but it seems a great deal of people who hate trailers that reveal too much (or totally mislead) also don't think trailers are a big factor in what make them go to theaters, so the studios don't tailor their trailers for them (they reach them with other types of publicity) and rather for the audience which trailers influence.

True, I suppose I am that type. I don't let trailers impress me all that much anymore. Hell, even the new Conan had a few fun trailers. And if I like the premise of a film (for example Inception), I don't even need anything beyond a teaser trailer with very few scenes to be absolutely certain I'll go see it.
Sucks to be me, in that case :P

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