TRAILER TRASH
While we are on the subject of movie annoyances, it is time to denounce the trailers that are now showing up on DVD's.
One of the reasons I look at DVD's is to escape this shit.
It used to be that Disney was the only company who put what we used to call 'previews' on the discs.
And a lot of other crap too like promo's for the Disney magic and all.
I just sit there with the remote and click it away to the next one.
There are sometimes ten clicks.
Then the trailer disease got out of the bag. The Weinsteins were a Disney division and they started using previews then took the practice along when they formed their own company.
Now other independent companies are going in for the trailers as well.
The other day we had an advertisment for a car on one of the discs.
Keeerist!
Click. Click. Click.
A royal pain in the ass.
I just thought I would say so.
