Merhawk and I saw Cap this weekend. Our trailers weren't the same as yours but where they overlap my sentiments are similar to yours.
TMNT: WTF? Are Hollywood types truly so devoid of creative energy and contextual awareness that they're going to reheat, with no visible irony, a second rate comic from the 1980s that was a parody of second rate comics in the 1980s? (Note: This is a rhetorical question. The answer is unambiguously "Yes".)
Blended: The industry refers to this as an "Adam Sandler vehicle". Any movie with the word "vehicle" in its three word synopsis is a turd. Obvious exception: the Cars franchise.
Maleficent: The trailer, while suspenseful and visually beautiful, told me almost nothing about what this film will actually be about. I can imagine a nuanced coming-of-age morality. Much the same as I could always imagine Ed McMahon bringing me a check for ONE MILLION DOLLARS.
Guardians of the Galaxy: I actually said this comment out loud in the movie theater: "This looks like a fine advertisement for why we need to keep building prisons."
