Study: Half of Moviegoers Think Trailers Give Away All
the Best Scenes

By Rebecca Ford

A new study finds, however, that movie trailers are still
the biggest influence on Americans when deciding if
they'll see a film.

For the past several months, trailers for this summer's
most anticipated films have been hitting the web on a
nearly daily basis.

But the trailers aimed at getting moviegoers excited for
these big-budget releases may be showing off a bit too
much.

According to a new study, half (49 percent) of Americans
feel that movie trailers these days give away too many of
a movie�s best scenes, with a full 16 percent agreeing
strongly.

So should the scenes from Iron Man 3 of Iron Man (Robert
Downey Jr.) saving a group of people falling from an
airplane or flying through the air with an army of other
Iron Mans be saved for when audiences actually hit the
theater?
