Apparently this move came out earlier this month. I haven't seen anyone talk about it, so I thought I would go ahead and post it.
beyond the usual trailer peeves this looks interesting. I like how it's brought up the conflict of loving a relative who isn't on board with your identity at all.
also kinda chuckling over how trailers these days always have a "WATCH THE EXACT FUCKING TRAILER FOR THIS MOVIE YOU JUST CAME TO WATCH RIGHT NOW" on the start. like lady, I came here for a reason ok
It's because the same uploaded video you are watching is being used as an advertisement for others. The 5 second sum up has been a trending marke
In response to your spoiler, this has unfortunately been proven to be a very effective tactic for people who are on the fence about the video. Sometimes people just click a video mindlessly to see what up, and everyone has a ridiculously short attention span for things they aren't totally invested in. If you start with some slow, intentionally paced trailer (or in the case of youtubers, some long obnoxious intro) you'll lose a lot of those on the fence people before they see any content that might keep them around.
Hence the whole intro trailers for videos tactic.
that plus most ads let you skip after the first few seconds.
