The one thing I miss from renting vids is the trailers.

I know so many people used to just fast forward them, but I used to watch them, and they were often responsible for me finding a little film I didn't previously know about, and allow me to discover an excellent film that I otherwise I would have missed. Yes I saw a few turkeys too, because of an impressive trailer, but on the whole I found more good than bad because of trailers.

But now I'm a DVD man, so no trailers for me. I think all rental DVD's should have trailers on them, I'd watch them.

A better idea would be for Blockbuster video to send out a free DVD to all their members every month, with hundreds of trailers on.

Trailers rule.

The only trailers on DVD's i've found have been on Dimension Film DVD's.

I'll tell you what, I went to see Lord of the Rings t'other night and... not a single trailer! Not even one! I wanted to see the fruity, gay, Episode 2 trailer again, but no!

As a direct result of a lack of trailers to ponder and shout at, LotR nearly put me to sleep in the first hour. Then it got good so I stayed awake, but still... no trailres? I felt ripped off!

Oh don't worry about trailers disappearing... the last rental DVD I got out not only had trailers, but you couldn't fast-forward through them.

I've seen a few normal DVDs which have trailers for other films on them too. And most filmfour DVD's have forced filmfour trailers on them.

Fear not Meka, trailers haven't disappeared. They've evolved.
