Dear J.J. Abrams

Having seen the trailer for Super 8 when I went to see Iron Man 2, I have one thing to say.

THIS SHIT GOT OLD AFTER YOU PULLED IT WITH CLOVERFIELD.

What shit?

I haven't see Cloverfield. I like my lunch to stay put.

The whole "I don't actually want to show you what the movie is about in the trailer" crapola. I mean, with Cloverfield, the trailers had "Here's the guy at his farewell party, OH BITCHCAKES THERE GOES THE HEAD OF THE STATUE OF LIBERTY, LET'S GO TO SHAKY-CAM FOR THE REST OF THE MOVIE", but no real indication of whether it was giant monster, alien invasion, or what.

Super 8 is doing the same kind of thing, where it shows 'something' happening to a derailed train, but not what the fucking movie is about. I mean, okay, odds are it's not going to be a romantic comedy, but come on....
