THE DIRTY TRAILER METER

I decided to create a list with a 'level of interest' rating just by watching trailers and reviewing the promo campaigns of upcoming movie releases (no I am not bored). I created a scoring scale with a score of 1 = Forget it. Not even worth a Torrent, to a score of 5 = I want to WATCH IT NOW.
Whether I actually decide to fork out $15 for a movie is another thing (that's another post).

"Reminds me of The Matrix but with I Robot leanings. Think Willis with B-listers. Well..."

DIRTY METER
3.2

"I know they're not trying to reveal too much but violent expressions of DiCaprio desperately clinging onto to see where the movie takes him does not an attractive movie trailer make"

"Okay I've seen this movie many times already. Nice key art though"

"Without 'A Doubt' there'll be a scene with Douglas taking a hot shower in his bathroom en suite or in his CPW co-op...we get it - You're a recovering Sex Addict"
