It's a pretty spoilery trailer too. I mean, like some people argue, you can pretty much piece together what happens anyway and the book itself wasn't the most complex adventure either (but it sure was fun)... but still... there's a lot given away here.

My cousin won't see a movie unless it's spoilered now. He says it costs so much to do a night out with his wife, that unless he knows whether they're going to like it, they really can't afford to spend the money.

It's sad, but Kiimo will attest to this; the studios know what they're doing and they don't give a poo poo if they spoil the movie for you. The trailers are designed to put butts in seats, and there are way more idiot hellfucker "Yee haw 'spolsions!!!!" movie goer butts than there are intelligent movie lover butts.

Seeing as '1' is infinitely larger than '0', I would agree.

Mortgage brokers and lenders pushed like crazy to refinance everyone during the interest rate drop and sell them on consolidating their credit card debt with their equity they had built up in their house over the years. So now their new mortgage is big again and all the lenders are forcing their employees to try to put everyone on a 2/5 ARM (which makes the lenders and brokers the most money), where their note rate is fixed for two years but has a pre-payment penalty for five years. I absolutely refused to sell these mortgages and thus got fired from three different companies over the span of three years.

The problem is after the fixed rate period of 2 years, suddenly their rate fluctuates wildly (and almost always goes up) and will do so for the following three years. After three years they can refinance. I was told to tell people don't be alarmed, it was capped at 2% maximum it could go up each year. After some research I found this out to be a bullshit lie. So now people are in the situation where their mortgage payment was skyrocketing. They can't pay their mortgage but hey guess what they can't refinance again, either, because of the pre-payment penalty for five years, hence the 2/5 ARM which is an Adjusted Rate Mortgage fixed for 2 years, with a PPP for 5. Their only choice is to sell their home. But wait, what if nobody is buying? Welp, your only course of action left is to let the lender foreclose or declare bankruptcy. So you lose your home and your credit is hosed for 7 years.

You may have heard about foreclosures and bankruptcies during that time. That's a major cause for the collapse. People with iffy credit struggling to pay off their debts get loans that are a time bomb. Lenders knew that they were screwing people over long-term to help them with revolving debt in the short term. It was bullshit and I was told to let them make their own financial mistakes, it was none of my business what loan they selected. I refused. Most of these people had little to no idea what they were getting into because it was in the best interest of the brokers not to tell them the full implications of the loan. They were just rushing them through the process as fast as possible and hoping the underwriter approved and got them out the door, consequences be damned.

Pure evil.

Thank you. That explains so much about what happened.

I'm really curious how a trailer is cut actually. How much time do you have to work on a typical one? How far into the shoot do you start getting footage? What kind of guidelines are you given? About how many des a typical company work on a year? That kind of stuff.

If you think that a movie's plot can't be spoiled because it's not out yet, then I really don't have to continue this conversation any further lol. Also, yes, I would prefer not to have any aspect of a film's plot spoiled, even if it is just a big summer blockbuster. Even if you don't care, perhaps it's a view point you could understand if you think about it hard enough.

I do like those things. The Pusher trilogy doesn't really have them, but if you want to watch desperate criminals gently caress up they're good movies imo. Valhalla rising hasn't been mentioned yet, thats good as well.

I 've liked Bronson the most out of his stuff. I have the same feeling toward Refn as I do over the Coens. They are fantastic filmmakers, but I just can't connect with their movies somehow. Still I keep trying because I must be missing something? With the Coens at least I've liked Raising Arizona, True Grit, and Hail Ceasar. With Refn, just Bronson so far. I'll probably see Neon Demon, but I have no idea whether I'll be pissed at myself afterwards (like after Only God Forgives).

The Handmaiden trailer does resemble the final film in style and mood, yes. Extremely stylish editing is a staple of Park Chan Wook's films, the music is from the film, and this is not a movie for someone who wants a typical historical drama. It's also a bit of a difficult film to cut a trailer for, since it's appeal leans so heavily on dark and graphic content. It's violent, it's sleek, it's cool. And like all Park's films, it's pretty hosed up.

Handmaiden is also based on Fingersmith which is an amazingly hosed up novel and the reason I will be waiting in line at the ticket booth opening day.
