Discuss: Which Trailers Are You Sick Of?

Last year I recall "Doubt" playing incessantly, and I've definitely noticed an abundance of "Goats" too, ditto on "An Education," I know I've noticed and been annoyed by more but for some reason I've blocked them out.

Gamer was the worst offender for me. Every single movie, TV show I'd watch, there was a trailer or an ad for that flick. Weirdly, I've only seen the Men Who Stare At Goats trailer online.

I'll be so glad when A CHRISTMAS CAROL hits. It's been on every single movie I've seen in the past three months, including horror stuff like SAW VI. ENOUGH ALREADY.

The Box has been annoying the crap out of me for the better part of a month. I've seen a lot of Up in the Air and It's Complicated as well.

It's not complicated, Nancy Myers, it's simple: I won't be seeing your movie.

Shutter Island, seriously tired of that one...it seems like it left for a little while and is now back again in full force. Maybe if I hadn't read the book it would remain intriguing, but knowing what happens, the trailer is becoming tedious to say the least.

Shutter Island was the one, and it's starting to creep back in, but now, without a doubt, the trailers for THE BOX cheapen it to the point of leaving nothing to the imagination (I once thought it was going to be mysterious, but from what I've accidentally seen, it looks more like a run of the mill suspense thriller at this point).

I try to mute my ears, but haven't been able to (when around someone else's TV). I really don't want to see any more of the film until I watch it on the Blu-ray director's 6-hour cut.

I don't know the cause but when i went to see paranormal activity last night, the preview for The Lovely Bones played twice, but with the trailer for the fourth kind in between them. Either an employee screwed up are they are really pushing that movie. But i certainly have no interest after that.

The Box, I have seen it twice in the past commercial break, both times happened before I was even finished with this article. It looks terrible, and Cameron Diaz has only one line but her accent makes me cringe every time I hear it/

"Old Dogs". What's worse is, I would often see it back to back with "World's Greatest Dad" or "From Paris With Love", proof that Williams and Travolta can do so much better.

Anybody else wishing that Goss had said "Not once, not twice, but Thrice!" instead of not one, not two, but three times? Double points for anyone that can name the reference.

Since I spent all day Sunday watching football and baseball on fox I've already gotten my fill of the new Avatar trailer. Fox made this big deal of the trailer premier right before kick off, but then felt the need to show the whole trailer during every other commercial break.

Law Abiding Shitizen! I had to actually sit through it again this past weekend. It already came out and no one saw it and I still have to watch the trailer? What the WHAT?!!

I don't have cable so I only see trailers when I watch them online or...in the movie theater, and the theater I've gone to a lot recently has been playing the trailer for Pirate Radio alllll the time, and I'm sick of it. If I have to hear Philip Seymour Hoffman phone in the line "I don't give a hootenanny about your limey laws" one more time I'm gonna throw something at the screen.

I wasn't sick of this trailer, but, so help me God, the trailer for "Son of Rambow" played in front of freaking everything in early 2008. "In Bruges", "Rambo", "Welcome Home Roscoe Jenkins", "Vantage Point" (don't judge me)...everything.

Ironically, the one movie it didn't accompany was "Be Kind, Rewind". Seriously, if ever there was a perfect match of trailer and movie, that was it. Oh, well...
