I agree wholeheartedly with Murray P. that the current trend in trailers is
to reveal so much of the significant action (so loudly) that one can find
very little justification for paying to see the film. My wife and I end up
laughing out loud at the inanity of the trailers. (There is no tease, these
days, only strip.) Someone somewhere must have concluded that this is an
effective way to get the message across to moviegoers. What wonderful
respect for our sensitivity they hold.
