This new trend I'm referring to is seeing a trailer out in theaters roughly four months plus in advance. Two movies however are sticking out like sore thumbs at the moment, and by the time they are released in theaters, I'm at the point where I'm ready for them to be released onto blu-ray/dvd.
Those two movies I'm referring to are the new Mission Impossible, and Puss In Boots. Perhaps Puss In Boots isn't as noticeable as Mission Impossible, but both trailers are being shown half to death. It wouldn't be bad if the movies weren't due out until next month, but Puss In Boots is due out November 4th, and Mission Impossible isn't due out until December 21st. Seems overkill in my opinion for these trailers to be attached to just about every big movie out there (or a majority of them).
Another trend with trailers, while I'm on the subject of trailers is the length of trailers prior to the films. Seriously. Yesterday, I saw Moneyball at 9:55. I didn't get out until 12:24. I thought I had missed the start of Killer Elite, however, as I got into Killer Elite, there was still another six minutes of trailers, which puts the trailers prior to the start of the show at about 15 to 20 minutes now before your movie actually starts. It's not really a problem or anything, but does help you plan correctly if you want to see multiple movies in a day.
