I had a dream with a song in it about hating trailers that tell you everything that happens in the film and I can’t sing but
It was kind of one of those old show-timey type of songs with a very bouncy piano backing?? kind of like I’m getting married in the morning but it was fucking great and the gist of it was this (put in random full stops for rhythm? I can’t write music lyrics idfk);
Please don’t put. the whole movie in the trailer!
Please don’t giveaway the plot twist in the ads
you think we need to see more, but all it is is a bore
when we see all of the good bits in three minutes or four
Please don’t put. the whole movie in the trailer!
please don’t make me want to punch you in the face
it’s no wonder we snore. when you make watching a chore
Please don’t make. me
restate the lesson
less.
is.
more!
You want to shine you want to show us what this film is about!
So you put in all the best paaarts- to give it some clout
I understand. I do! I swear it’s true but listen to me
what’s the point of leaving us without a sense of mystery?
Please don’t put. the whole movie in the trailer!
Please don’t tell me how it ends before it starts!
The narration is annoying and while you think we are enjoying
all these sneak previews I’m telling you
the movie you’re destroying
so please don’t put. the whole movie in the trailer!
Or you’ll put. Off the audience instead!
Leave some gaps, make us gasp, make us pine and wonder so
we will GO to the movie
we will go
we’ll go
WE’LL GO.
