It feels like they started doing this a decade or two ago and it has been pissing me off ever since. If you have a thriller, don't show climatic moments from the second half. Ever. If it's a horror, don't show the monster.
But otherwise I don't really see the need to go to the movies except for the few per year I'm excited for. The rest I can stream on my OLED TV.
The story you can't miss with a huge twist at the end
Oh great! I love twists when I know they're coming! It wouldn't be fun if I didn't know it was coming!
Then they are shocked when I don't see the point in spending my money on it
