"How Movie Trailers Manipulate You"

[Reel-Man]

I found this really interesting topic here which had this fascinating mini-documentary on the work and companies that create movie trailers. I think this could be interesting to a lot of folks here.

To attract an audience to the theatre, movie trailers play a huge role. They always create a short clip of 2 to 3 minutes that includes the most important aspects of the movie. Sometimes, they create a series of trailers before the release in theatres, introducing characters and plots. These trailers are really exciting and create an intent in our minds. We feel the need to definitely watch that particular movie, no matter if it becomes a blockbuster or a flop.

Whenever a new Marvel film trailer is released, I eagerly wait for it. Once I've seen it, I decide on the dates to block my schedule for that particular film if i am interested to watch it.
