I saw the trailer for “American society of magical Negroes” and it looked kinda funny in the first 20 seconds, then the trailer went on to show what I’m pretty sure was literally everything in the movie.
Are there any other trailers that made you lose all interest in seeing it because it showed literally everything?
Basically all trailers in the last ten years. They reveal so much you are just watching a cliff notes version of the movie.

And they’re speeding them up so they can cram more scenes in. I went and saw Godzilla X Kong and could barely keep up with some of them they were switching through things so fast.
The worst is when you go see a comedy and the only funny parts were in the trailer.
Terminator 2. The ad campaign and trailers revealed what had the potential to be an amazing reversal of expectations well ahead of time. I actually got to see it with a friend who was out of touch enough to not have seen any spoilers; I wish I’d had his experience.
A friend of mine told the The Matrix was about a guy who could move really fast.
I was so glad he didn’t spoil it for me.
It was an amazing movie with the twist given away in the trailer. I can’t imagine how much more amazing it would be without knowing the twist.
As ridiculous as this movie was, I always thought that the trailer for Star Wars Episode I : The Phantom Menace shouldn’t have shown Darth Maul’s double bladed lightsaber.
After that happened in the movie, I was angry that a big moment had been denied me. I basically stopped watching trailers of any film I intended to see that day.
People who are into movies say that the trailer is a part of the experience. But I’d prefer to go in completely unspoiled.
This happened for me with the scene in one of the new star trek movies where they play beastie boys while busting out of a cloud or something. Idk, it was a really cool scene, but I was mad that I’d already seen it in the trailer. It’s ludicrous. I still complain about it to my wife to this day.
I basically don’t watch trailers anymore. I’ll read a synopsis and look at some aggregate scores.
Ideally though I’ll just ask someone I know for what they’ve seen that’s good.
The only time I watch trailers anymore is when I trust the people involved to leave me with nothing but confusion and questions. Like the Death Stranding trailers that Kojima puts together.
