well you see, normally if i watch the show at my place i turn it off right after the credits roll, end of story. but the past two weeks i was at a friends and we watched hung and then entourage right after true blood and the preview i was speaking of aired some time between those shows.. so it caught me off guard..
but yes, i hate them..
unless it's some sort of action movie which doesn't have much to do with a story line, i don't understand why so many damn trailers come out for some movies.. i used to work at blockbuster when i was 16-17 and we would have to have the trailer DVD on the in-store TV's all day and i really got to see how much the trailers show.. it's crazy.. why bother watching the movie if you have a trailer that shows all of the exciting parts without having to sit through the bullshit?
i digress, but, yeah, i stray from them. just like i don't like when people say "OMG YOU HAVE TO GO SEE THIS MOVIE IT WAS SO GOOD".. depending on the person at least. i will purposely go see a movie where someone has told me it was "incredible" just to tell them they have bad taste when it turns out awful.
when i look back at movies which i had NO idea what they were about, i almost always enjoy them much more.. movies of note: the illusionist and forgetting sarah marshall.. my gf at the time wanted to see them and i had no idea what they were about and i loved them both.. would it be the same if i saw trailers and had a preconceived idea as to what to expect? i'll never know, but i like being caught off guard.
