Venom Trailer Reactions: 7 Ups & 4 Downs

4. The Tease Before The Trailer
Along with teaser trailers and social media teases and hype-building trailer announcements, this new tendency to tag a couple of scenes from the trailer onto the front before the proper start of the trailer is as annoying as it is redundant.
It's almost as if the studios don't trust anyone to be able to concentrate long enough to focus on the thing they literally just clicked on without a little visual foreplay. And if that's the case, we should all stop being allowed to watch movies, because the experience for everyone else is horribly jarring, particularly as those shots are then reused later in the correct way.
At this rate, it's only a matter of time before we start getting TL:DR versions of trailers, because it's a short leap. And this isn't even a long trailer!
