That trailer reuses the "bash through a window and run along a roof" footage... was that a trailer for the trailer? Is that normal?

I don't understand why, if you're making a ridiculous sequel like that, you wouldn't just call up Paul Scheer and say "Hey, we need a script that comes in at under a million dollars, and we can pay you very little, but you get to write Kindergarden Cop 2." I'm pretty sure he'd jump at that. Or a dozen other young hilarious screenwriters that are champing at the bit for a weird cool opportunity like that. It's not like there's any franchise to ruin, so why not take chances?

Pretty sure they've done that so they can use that clip for any pre-roll YouTube ads (I believe views accrued over 30 seconds add to the views counter), as it's timed for 5 seconds (ie, when people can skip) before the actual trailer.

I've watched that trailer twice now to see what you mean, and as far as I can tell she is on screen for about 2 seconds and she is not even moving in any of those. What exactly are you referring to?

A lot of older trailers just show a bunch of scene snippets without the modern language of trailes that we're used to. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c4Jo8QoOTQ4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F7t-919Ec9U If you go far enough back, trailers would pretty much walk you through the entire film chronologically. Much more egregiously than the backlash that for example BvS got.

Yeah, a lot of things people have argued were spoilers in the context of movies (Dusk Till Dawn, Terminator 2, Child's Play) were revealed in trailers. It's almost like they wanted people to see the movie... Carrie's trailer not only shows the prom scenes but even Travolta's death after that.

Electromax posted:A lot of older trailers just show a bunch of scene snippets without the modern language of trailes that we're used to. The first trailer for 1989's Batman was pretty unusual: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EyozzozRsCk No narration, no music, not much of an attempt at a narrative, but it was very popular when it was released because no one had ever seen anything like it before. I think people paid for a movie just to see the trailer, maybe the first time that happened. Happy Noodle Boy posted:Speaking of that, what's the worst example of a trailer giving everything away?

The funny part is that the trailer itself was thrown together because Warner execs were getting cold feet about Burton's take and focus grouping they had done showed that people still thought of Adam West when they heard the name Batman, while at the same time DC was getting deluged with angry letters from Batfans about letting Michael Keaton portray their favorite superhero. So Peters had a bunch of the most finished footage from the film slapped together almost overnight and got it in front of Christmas movies in '88. There's no music because Elfman hadn't gone into the scoring stage yet. It's a very stark trailer. It stands out even nowadays, mostly because it's entirely dependent on the visuals, sound design, and a few choice lines, two of which are the most enduring lines from the film.

Watching a trailer and saying "I guess I've seen the movie now" is like reading a paragraph summary on Wikipedia and saying "I've read this book."

Surlaw posted:Watching a trailer and saying "I guess I've seen the movie now" is like reading a paragraph summary on Wikipedia and saying "I've read this book." They're being pretty hyperbolic when they say that, but their point still stands... revealing major surprises or plot beats of a movie in the trailer can greatly reduce someone's enjoyability of the movie. Not everyone of course, but a lot of us like riding the wave of reveals and momentum of a movie like it's a brand new thing. And sometimes when you know what's going to happen, it just takes the wind out the sails a bit.
