Went to a movie theater and saw a trailer for a movie where I was interested in the first 30 seconds of it, but the trailer then showed what looked like something probably from the last 10 minutes and spoiled the entire movie, so lost all interest.

So what movies come to mind as having done really good, where it makes you interested and gives you an idea of the movie, but doesn’t ruin any big reveals?

        “Coming home one night, he fell down an elevator shaft… onto some bullets.”

        “You, know, I’ve always suspected a bit of foul play.”

        As have I.

      “God gave me this gift, I shovel well, I shovel very well.”

      I remember seeing it in theaters and really not knowing what to do with it.
