I like this trailer, if for no other reason it puts children in peril, which I tend to enjoy in movies. Let me explain. Most movies treat children as of they were made of glass and if you look at them too long, they spontaneously combust. And that’s just not true. Children have literally fought […]
And if there were a definition of the term “teaser trailer” in a text book I wouldn’t be shocked if it referred to the Batwoman teaser because this thing literally tells you nothing at all beyond the obvious. Which is fine since I don’t particularly care about any of the CW shows that I have […]
‘Hindsight is always 20-20’ which means it’s easy to say how something would have been successful after the fact.
