Have you seen any film trailers that gave you a horrible tinny taste in your mouth? Flicks that could only be so bloody bad that you forsaken the day that the first monkey stood upright and start evolving into the inevitable homosapian that made this monstrously bad film?
Jodie Foster's attempt at bringing Mel Gibson back into the mainstream and into the box office glory days looks like it will actually roll straight onto the DVD bin and not get a US theatrical film release. http://nymag.com/daily/entertainment/2010/12/yes_the_beaver_trailer_is_awkw.html
This bugbear of a film looks like a knockout winner for the Razzie Awards Worst Movie of the Year. The thing is that many people will not see the film but they will blame the failure of the film on Mel Gibson's infamous bad behavior outside the film rather then on the characters and the film itself.

@tsarstepan,
the blind side, radio flyer, rudy, titanic, any adam sandler film, any ben stiller film
This up and coming organically~grown documucompost/hippie fest is the reason why the uberconservative Teabaggers and Republicans hate us liberal Democrats.
Just by watching this trailer for Shark Night 3D with its already cliche sonic exclamation points, I'm just thinking ... "you know once the characters find out that there is a shark or sharks in the water, then why in the hell would they keep going back any where near the beach or the water for a very long time." Stay on the island and you keep safe from the shark(s). How stupid can these idiotic characters get?! http://trailers.apple.com/trailers/independent/sharknight3d/
Yep, particularly when I've read/heard interesting reports about films I know little about ...
It gives me a much better idea about whether a film will appeal or not .

@Lustig Andrei,
Who knows, maybe one of these stinkers actually might be a watchable movie. Kind of doubt it but there's a 1 in a million chance. Hence the dangerous pursuit of watching these damnable trailers.
I watch a lot of trailers especially to see what new films are coming out and if the films aren't being covered by the typical movie news sites.

@msolga,
Thankee for the 'welcome back', msO. The damn' hamsters wouldn't let me back on with my old monicker (brob'ly because I've changed my e-mail address again) so I fooled 'em by Germanizing the nom-de-net.
Ha, you sneaked back in, Andrew!
Those hamsters are so easily fooled!
Lovely to see you again.
I hope it's not just for 5 minutes before you vanish again, though!

We need a UN funded and led military action to carry out and enforce a moratorium against straight to TV and DVD films like this.
I humbly apologize for the trailer I will be afflicting on you. Please refer to the following medical side effects before preceding to watch the trailer: Loss of hair, subconjunctival hemorrhage, spontaneous limb detachment, rectal detrumpetation, uncontrollable appendix zephyring, uncontrolled spleen/internal organ swapping syndrome, and death.
I know this is not the right thread, tsar .... but you have so many film threads & I honestly haven't a clue which one is the right one .....
But a few weeks ago, you mentioned going to see some new French film, which both Irishk & I expressed interest in. (You had to delay it for a week, as I recall.)
Anyway, I have forgotten the name of the film & have completely lost track of the thread you posted to.
Could you direct me with a link, if it's not too much trouble, please?
If that's too messy & time-consuming, what was the name of the film, again?
