Movie foreplay….that’s what Buzzfeed calls movie trailers; I call them Flypaper, :-). . . . . Trailers are meant to get you in the door. A good trailer has certain qualities–I have my criteria which I’ll share in comments; but I’d love input as to what you all look for, what makes you interested in seeing the movie or giving it a pass. . . .
NOTE: A good trailer does NOT necessarily mean that the movie is any good; A bad trailer almost always means the movie is terrible. BTW, I made up that theory and of course I’m just sure I’m 100 percent right; what do you all think? Check the Buzzfeed link at the bottom for the rest of the clips; I only posted a few……
