Oh! I remember now the new flick Yoda and I were griping about ... with TV trailers that tell way too many of the plot points: Untraceable.
Couldn't they have just hinted at the one major gist of this movie without showing us about four plot high points in a single commercial? Honestly, my first contact with this movie's main plot sounded interesting. But now that they're showing these more revealing commercials, I'm actually LESS interested in the movie.
Same thing happened with I Am Legend. The first commercials were mostly shots of Smith alone with the dog in N.Y.C. Once the commercials started including brief shots of the creatures, I lost a lot of interest.
I don't know why studios think we want the entire plot summarized in a commercial. I know I don't.
