Add To Favourites.

Just been checking out the Joe Dante’s website Trailers From Hell. Cult movie trailers, with audio-commentary from famous directors. You could spend hours on this site, it’s an amazing archive.

My newest bugbear these days is when you go onto Youtube, or some other site to watch a movie\game trailer, and they make you watch another trailer or advert before your video starts. It’s weird to have to watch a whole other trailer you didn‘t want to, just to watch one you did. Or when they make you watch an advert, and it’s longer than the clip you wanted to see in the first place. So many times, I’ve clicked a trailer, seen there’s a massive, long advert before it, and clicked away from the page, and not bothered to watch the trailer I did want to see. Is that good advertising?
