Stop Complaining About Trailers!

Jessica Jones is coming out soon and I like most people cannot wait and the marketing campaign for the show has been brilliant so far, only showing 30 second long scenes with almost no dialogue or story, just Jessica Jones doing something in her life like waking up and smashing her alarm clock or walking out a bar having beat up everyone inside. However some people have been complaining about this and saying these teasers are lame and they should just realease a full trailer already. Here's the thing about trailers, they're supposed to sell you on the show, are you going to watch Jessica Jones? Yes? Then good news! YOU DON'T NEED A TRAILER! Asking for a trailer is just asking for moments from the show to be spoiled for you and to get more information than needed. It's the same with the new Star Wars trailer coming out, it's going to take all my willpower not to watch it because i don't need it, i have enough information to want to see the film and think it'll be awesome, i don't want to know what the story is going to be before going in, even if the trailer doesn't spoil anything, the less you know about a film going into it, the better your experience will be because it will be fresh, you wont have certain visuals or moments to expect.

Then these same people will complain that trailers will then spoil too much, then don't watch them. If you feel like a trailer is giving away too much you can stop it at any time. But what about when they play in cinemas!? Step outside for a minute, that's what I do and it works for me. Then there are comedy trailers, if a comedy trailer doesn't make you laugh God that sucks, it's not even funny if it does make you laugh Ugh, i bet they just put the best jokes in the trailer. You can't win with these people. So yeah, that's all I have to say, just wanted to rant a little bit, if you complain about trailers then you've got no one to blame but yourself pretty much.
