They really need to stop doing the ”ironic epic trailer” thing, it's super played out. You know, when the narration goes like ”This summer, there's only one who can save the world…”, record scratch, it's a cute cartoon dog.
Stop putting random pop songs in movies too, it's super lazy.

YES this 100%. Write your own music people, and for the love of god let your sound team experiment with genres outside of epic orchestra, generic pop and Wicked the Musical.
Soundtracks should be epic orchestras by rock bands.
Progrock?!? 
More like British Seapower in Disco and Toto in Dune

Chris Pratt
Movie trailer voice: Chris Pratt, Jack Black and Ryan Reynolds team up in this hilarious new adventure
Me: "Damnit, not another one."
Also me: "Eh, I'll probably end up watching it."
personally im really done with irony and quippy soy banter.
you know when someone makes an epic speech and some guy is like "Well that was corny!" yeah i know you suck at writing but highlighting how shit it is, isnt going to make it better. please just stand behind your stuff or no one will.
That overused quippy banter shit has made me curious for the (inevitably terrible) Elden Ring film that got announced.
Your average movie writer wouldn't be able to just let the visual humour of something like the warrior jars just be, they don't trust the audience enough for that. So either there'll be "well that just happened"-ass quips when any of the goofier elements of the setting pop up, or they excise all of that and just make it as dour and joyless and grimdark as possible.
On the other hand, the next Star Wars movie should start with Johnny Starwars saying ”I'm so sick of all these Star Wars”, turning to the camera, and winking.
Things that need to stop being in movie trailers:
saves time and money tbh
The world... is changing...
cut to Jack Black
Stomp clap hey in general should already die
I hated stomp clap hey even when it was first a thing. I'm glad people are starting to hate on it. Now if we could just get commercials to stop using it.
That and ukuleles, whistling and baby pianos.

these make me so angry actually, like I'm being treated like a child
I want you to know your last sentence elicited a fully involuntary 
face from me in the real world
at this point I just want them to stop spoiling the plot of the entire movie in trailers
going to the theater before the showtime now basically spoils the entirety of every movie coming out in the next six months
So glad I always end up being slightly late and missing the previews
I find those kind of trailers hard to watch. I thought that trend would be over by now.
Every single trope turns up in the first hour of Baldur's Gate 3
The bwa is still done? When did inception come out???
Like a million years ago but I swear I still hear it in new things
In addition to the random pop or classic rock song with little to no connection to the movie, double so any “epic” version of the same. Taking the same cliched song but drenching it in space reverb and a little delay with a string section bolted on does not uncliche it.
....or slowing down a song with an acoustic guitar to make it oOOOooooOhhHhhH scAaRrrry
That always ends up sounding like a bad attempt at vaporwave to me.
This shit dinged Paradise for me, I get he has bad music taste, I don’t need two versions of the same song in each episode, one regular and one epic for the credits.
Being all downhill after episode one didn’t help either but that’s unrelated
Closely associated to the BWAA in movie trailers, super-short clips that cut to black/silence between each one. It's so played out at this point
with the stomp/door slam sound aaaaaaaa
DWWMMWMWWWMMM "Forget everything you think you know" BWAAAA
U.S. trailers of international arthouse films be like:
amber (test)
Amber.
DWWVvvmmmmmm
went to theater and they played a trailer for a dark comedy movie that look really interesting...except they literally spoiled every beat in the movie. normally im like eh i dont think trailers spoil movies that much, but this one was actually spoiling everything. why are you showing this??? is there no trust in the audience? lol
Asian shows are so bad at this. The west is doing child's play in this regard.
GOOD post!
GOOD emoji!
After the revolution, every overexposed actor will be sent to Gulag
Actors will have to balance their work schedule to avoid becoming cringe
Any scriptwriter who makes marvel cringe dialogue will also get extended sentences
badposting is a comm where you post badly
This is not a [email protected] alternative. This is not a [email protected] alternative. This is a place for you to post your bad posts.
Ever had a really shitty bit idea? Joke you want to take way past the point of where it was funny? Want to feel like a stand-up comedy guy who's been bombing a set for the past 30 minutes straight and at this point is just saying shit to see if people react to it? Really bad pun? A homemade cringe concoction? A cognitohazard that you have birthed into this world and have an urge to spread like chain mail?
