Jurassic World: 10 Things That Completely Ruined Fallen Kingdom

8. Trailers Spoiled All The Best Moments

Though trailers often reveal way too much about movies before they land in cinemas, Fallen Kingdom's pretty much gave away every major moment in the sequel. Though the first was restricted to action from the first act, the rest have covered the entire movie, spoiling major set-pieces, the best jokes and even the climax.

Even the moments the trailer doesn't directly give away can be used to piece together the way scenes are going to end while you're watching the film. There aren't any surprises, and knowing what happens next in a scene because you've seen footage in the trailer makes watching an already boring and predictable film even more frustrating.

Though criticisms about trailers giving away too much information about a movie is always met with the same old "well don't watch them then" response, in this day and age, it's almost impossible to avoid them. For the biggest movies in particular, you're bound to catch them being screened before other major flicks, unless you leave the theatre for the two minutes they're on.
