I subscribe to Total Film magazine (wish I'd time to read all the friggin mags I get). The latest issue had a DVD on the cover which promised a "special glimpse of what's coming to cinemas" this summer.
Cool. Free DVDs. Lots of cool trailers, or may even some exclusive previews, interviews, whatnot? Excellent.
Wroooooong. What they did was make a special DVD, make a beautiful cover for it, put in with the magazine, and ship it all over the country... with one single 70-second trailer with combined two-second glimpses of coming movies!
What a g*dd*amn f***ing waste of opportunity. No wonder the movie industry is in trouble. [Update: I've been corrected, they are doing better this year. That's nice.]

It's not in trouble. Revenues are up from last year. They're doing just fine.
Total Film looks like it would be good but I'm not going to pay 80 pounds to get it here. That's just criminal.
