we know it's coming because you put it in the ****ing trailer! any suspense this moment might have had was broken before the movie even premiered, and dragging it out for five years isn't going to fix that, so just get it over with so i can go eat!
yeah, that was pretty much what was going through my head while watching this, and a great reason to NOT put your movie's final jumpscare in the trailer, or on the movie poster for that matter.
That is right! Fortunately I didn't see the trailer before the movie. I really prefer to be 100% unaware of what I will see. So one can keep safe from spoilers.
What's with this trend lately of putting the very last frickin' scene in the trailer? You're right, it absolutely robs the scene of any real suspense or surprise. Plus when I saw it in the trailer, my first thought was, "That's probably the last scene." Whoever is in charge of these trailers needs to be fired.
Even if you're lucky with a film, and artists made it, and artists cut it, by the time you get to marketing you can be sure it will be butchered by that other part of the industry that has no concept of art or storytelling and simply wants money. This is one reason why for Kevin Smith's last movie he wouldn't let anyone touch it for "marketing", instead he had it independently financed so no one got their fingers in it, and then toured America showing it in person rather than letting some big company slap their logo on it and put out crappy, misleading, or revealing trailers.
I agree, they always seem to do this now, especially in the rorror movies. I don't know why they do that stuff. You know it's coming at some point. It's almost as bad as when they used to show the entire movie in the trailer. That has happened in COUNTLESS movies!

I saw this movie recently and I had forgot about that scene up until the point where I saw. It worked for me. But I did remember it from the previews years ago.
