I can already tell I'm going to get sick of seeing stuff for Avatar, even though I want to see the movie.

My wife and I saw 4 movies theatrically last week. We saw the trailer for Daybreakers 4 times. The movie looks terrible and my annoyance with the trailer did it no favors at all.

The Blind Side

...it just looks like every other black male football player moves in with white family triumph from nothing story.

and they kill the emotional hook when Sandra Bullock asks the rags to riches male character "We would like to know if you want to become a part of this family" or something like that and instead of the feel good moment of joy on male face, he says "I thought I already was" in this slow-witted way.

I was going to say Shutter Island. I can't stand listening to DiCaprio try to talk with an accent anymore. Soon they're going to have to send me to that goddamn island!

Hokeyboy · 11-03-09, 12:04 PM

Good Lord... I haven't seen a single Shutter Island trailer anywhere.

A Christmas Carol... on the other hand... wow. These mocap movies always come across as stiff and creepy; the only one I've liked so far is "Monster House".

The one trailer that takes the cake for me is actually a tie: 2006's F&TF: Tokyo Drift and 1989's Young Einstein.

Well, if we're going to mention "most annoying of all-time" I'd have to go with Taxi. Oohhh, I get douche-chills just thinking about it.

Daytripper · 11-04-09, 08:33 PM

Well, what do you know. Saw "Law Abiding Citizen" last night and what trailer did I see? "Shutter Island".

MrSmearkase · 11-16-09, 06:46 PM

I keep meaning to come here and post that I see the trailer for Armored on almost everything lately. The kicker of it is that it looks like a good movie, but seeing the trailer so often has deflated almost any interest in it for me now.

"The Blind Side" is starting to get a lot of play, as is New Moon, which doesn't really need the PR.

2012 with every print of Potter this summer. 12 @!!@$$ times. After 2 months in theaters, you'd think that they'd get a different trailer.

RobLutter · 11-17-09, 12:20 AM

I've seen Despicable Me like the last... 5 times I've gone to the theater. The trailer makes it look freakin' retarded, btw.

Another one is Brothers.

"Duplicity" with Clive Owen and Julia Roberts.

Since my wife works late during the week, we catch up on our Thursday night TV shows (Community, The Office, Parks and Rec, and 30 Rock) over the weekends via OnDemand. Instead of showing traditional commerrcials during the breaks, nine times out of ten they'll play the same trailer for this movie.

You saw Potter 12 times in theaters? Or do you work in a theater?

I'm a Potter fan but I don't think I could watch that particular one more than once.

When we went to see Toy Story / Toy Story 2 in 3D, we had to sit through what seemed to be 20 minutes of trailers. TWICE -- once before each movie. The SAME TRAILERS.

I want to personally strangle anyone who has anything to do with "Despicable Me".

I don't work at a theater. I actually went twice opening day, again two days later and then nine Wednesdays straights till it closed. They know me because I go twice a week. But during summer I got 'you're seeing this again" and "how many times have you seen it?" Between that and Trek (11x), they probably thought I was nuts.
