What is your personal response to the trailers?

I think this trailer is very well layed out however i feel as if i already know what would happen in the film. Many good parts were shown and there is nothing that makes me really want to watch this film. Otherwise i think the music suited well and that the special effects used looks realistic. I was able to recognise the theme tune

4.What is your personal response to the trailers?

I personally enjoy the trailer and think it attracts the audience as it builds suspense with the use of music and contained many action parts which i also enjoy. The trailer itself did not spoil anything as it only shows things that makes you want to know the answer to and therefore watch the film itself.
