The Avengers Trailer And Fuck The Internet

Back in 2013 I made a deal with myself to stop watching so many trailers for movies, i would watch the first trailer and that's it, hell in some cases i don't even watch the full trailer, why? Well for one, some trailers like to spoil the entire movie in the trailers, but two, i don't need to watch them. Trailers are marketing tools, they're made to sell the movie to you, i don't need the whole trailer if i'm sold by the first minute mark, i wanna see your movie. Hell i don't even need a trailer for The Avengers, i would go in completely blind if possible, except i'm weak and this is the internet, you know that's impossible, so I watch the first trailer and that's it.

But the more trailers that come out, the more footage you see and i don't need that! I don't need you to show me all the big action scenes, i don't need you to tell me what the plot is or what characters are doing, i will find out in the movie. Yes it's entirely possible that the movie is going to have a lot more featured but i don't fucking care! The less you know going into a movie (Especially the big blockbusters) the better, that is a fact. So i don't watch the trailer, but apparently i don't have to because the internet loves screencapping everything and showing the trailer without you having to watch it.

OH MY GOD DID YOU SEE THIS SHOT OF THE TEAM TOGETHER-No! I don't wanna see that!

WHAT ABOUT THIS SHOT OF HULK AND BLACK WIDOW HAVING-Shut up! I Don't want to know!

OMG! WE CAN SEE WHAT VISION LOOKS LIKE AND HE HAS THE SOUL GEM!-SHUT UP! SHUT THE FUCK UP! WHY WOULD YOU GIVE AWAY A MAJOR PLOT POINT LIKE THAT!? Why do people insist on analysing and telling you what every single frame of the trailer means and try as hard as they can to figure out the plot of the movie before even seeing it, why!? How in anyway is that going to improve your experience while watching the movie!?

I made a similar rant to this about The Fantastic Four, everyone complained about the lack of promotional material and i said that's a good thing! When I go into Fantastic Four and not knowing the story or what the characters will look like while using their powers, i'm gonna have such a fun time, because i don't know what's going to happen next (If the story turns out to be good that is).

So the point i'm trying to make is, if you watch the trailers and you want to talk about it...keep in mind, Europe gets it a week earlier than you Americans, and I will spoil it if you don't shut the fuck up...nah, i won't do that (I will).
