If there's one thing I just don't understand, it's this: action movie trailers on the radio.
Here, just go to Youtube and look up a trailer for any action movie you haven't seen. Now, close your eyes, and listen to it. Do you know what's going on? No, no you do not. Neither does anybody that listened to that on the radio. If you do know what's going on you're either e-Daredevil or a dirty cheater.
The most recent one I heard was for Cowboys & Aliens. Here's what the trailer consisted of:
*Whoooooosh*
"They're here!"
*WORB*
-EXPLOSION-
*ARRWRARARARB*
-EXPLOSION-
-YELL-
-SCREAM-
"Cowboys & Aliens, now in theaters"
Had I seen the trailer on TV or something, I could easily see there were spaceships and aliens, just as the title insinuated. On the radio? A bunch of nonsensical noise and gibberish. And that's what grinds my gears.
Also! Results for ass-wipe position. 68% wipe sitting, 31% standing. Since a girl mentioned she stands, I think it's quite safe to assume all girls stand when wiping. East Man out.
Here's another fun game: Open a random action movie trailer and see if the narrator is the same as always. Also, look at any comedy trailer and see if there is a time where the music stops and someone says a punchline. I swear, it's in every comedy trailer EVER!
ReplyDeleteHaha, they really have ads like that on the radio..? Ah well, anything they can do to remind you to go out and spend money, i spose.
ReplyDeleteMovie apparently was great as I am being told. And yes, that goes for most movies. Should not be advertised on the radios unless there is a description, not sound effects.
ReplyDeletegood movie I heard as well. followed!
ReplyDeleteI agree, on one hand its cruel to the visually impaired, on the other its just annoying....
ReplyDeleteThey are just trying to build an anticipation with key phrases, especially on the radio, but ye I do agree its a little silly.
ReplyDeletelol, those confuse me too
ReplyDeleteHaha, good take on that. I hate radio commercials as well.
ReplyDeleteoh God, i don't understand a thing hahaha
ReplyDeleteit's cruel =(

ReplyDeleteAction movie trailers on the radio? Don't get it. But funny stuff, +follow!
ReplyDeleteThey really have ads like this on the radio?!
ReplyDeleteThe bad thing about trailers you watch on youtube is they spoil too much
ReplyDeleteI agree, somewhat pointless,but hey.. they got you talking about and advertising cowboys and aliens on your blog!
ReplyDeleteSomething worked right, hehe.
hahah ive heard that broadcast too
ReplyDeleteAudio described movies at the cinema. every time. every fucking time.
ReplyDeleteI understand your point, but surely this sense of confusion makes you want to know more?
ReplyDeleteHaha. I remember that. I just sounds like noise! I do agree with the poster above me. It CAN give you some curiosity.
ReplyDeleteFair point. Radio advertising is fail. ++Following
ReplyDeleteya this annoys me, but I stopped listening to the radio it sucks
ReplyDeleteIMDB is my main source for movies and tv. But that kind of trailer is annoying
ReplyDeleteBut lots of explosions means it's good right? well, that's what Michael Bay thinks anyway.
