kate_nepveuGeez, I almost forgot. Which is impressive considering how many of them there were.
FYI: I link to IMDB because it's stable, but on some of these, it adds these few seconds at the start that weren't in the theatrical version? So if there's a title screen that included "Official Trailer," what was in the theater started after that.
Flatliners: it is too! soon! for a reboot!
Only the Brave: I could have sworn this had a different title. Crushingly obvious-looking "inspired by a true story", about a forest-fire-fighting unit.
Kingsman: The Golden Circle: I know the first of these has some devotees in fanfic fandom, but I don't go for mentor/mentee, and this just screams "trying way too hard" to me.
It: that looks pretty good! I don't do horror so I'm not getting near this with a ten-foot pole.
Birth of the Dragon: quasi-Bruce Lee biopic, which possibly has been recut to focus less on a white dude, whose presence still seemed weird and out-of-place in the above trailer?
The Hitman's Bodyguard (the version we saw had fewer swears and not the end bit either): okay, I may have been pummeled into submission by this point, but I did actually smile. Not going to see it, mind.

Snowman (serial killer! graphic shots of bloody posed dead women! no heads! no thanks)
Hitman's Bodyguard (I have progressed from "eh not my thing" to outright loathing because it has been JAMMED down my throat all damn summer)
what my husband called "the Instagram movie" (Ingrid Goes West)
Ready Player One (blech)
Kingsman The Golden Circle (so not my thing)
Thank God there wasn't a trailer for IT, because I would have fled screaming from the theatre.
