Problems with Movie Trailers

Have you ever watched a movie trailer that made you say, “Well, guess I don’t have to see that movie, now that I know the entire plot. Thank you, spoiler alert.” Or trailers that are just WAY too overdramatic? 

Or how about the trailers that lead you to believe the movie is an entirely different genre.  Like when The Village came out, and everyone thought they were going to a horror film. I wonder if M. Knight was somewhere in the back of the theater saying, “Suckas! You just sat down for a two-hour love triangle!”

Well here’s a trailer that was actually way BETTER than the movie itself. Fancy that. Maybe I like this trailer so much because it has Ingrid Michaelson mixed with some poetry, California, London, and a little bit of my own life situation. Maybe because at the end of the day, I just love a good commercial.
