Trailers SPOIL (Score:1)

This is very true and very annoying. I used to work in a cinema and in front of my position was a bank of monitors repeating all the trailers over and over.

I noticed one more interesting effect. Trailers are edited before the actual movie is. This leads to things being cut out of the movie that are in the movie. I still remember the trailer for Dumb and Dumber, it had five good jokes in it, in the space
of 20 seconds. The actual movie had only four. In two hours. Argh.
