So many people complain that trailers give too much away about a movie. Here’s a trailer trying real hard not to do that, and people complain it’s just a bunch of disjointed clips with no info on the plot.
I’m telling you that’s for a reason. It’s avoiding spoilers. The trailer is not half as good as the movie. The movie is unique and compelling. The trailer is only confusing. And I don’t know how to make the trailer better without messing up the first viewing experience.
Those are my favorite kind of trailers actually.
The ones that are just a single 2min scene.
I’m not sure that would do this movie justice either though. It’s kind of unusual in it’s presentation. It wouldn’t give more context than the clip show trailer we got. It would make you feel like you had an idea what it was, but that idea would probably be wrong.
But its Inirratu tho. People just see it as oscar bait movies. He doesn’t pull masses like that nor can you make an honest interesting trailer out of this weird movie.
Can you describe the genre? I don’t have any particular love for Tom Cruise, but he’s been in several movies that I have liked, of the ‘dystopian sci-fi mindfuck’ style, for want of a better description. Oblivion, Edge of Tomorrow, Vanilla Sky and to a lesser degree Minority Report.
Saw a trailer which was quite literally just a compilation of Tom Cruise clips from his other movies.
No info on plot, setting or story just “y’all love him” and… no, no I do not. Incredibly off-putting.

The point of a trailer is to get people excited about the movie.
You can do both that and not spoil the entire movie.
Even just playing the first 5 minutes of the movie is enough.

Never heard of this movie until yesterday.
The genre would be part drama, part farcical dark comedy.
They probably aren’t the same people
