Stop Watching Trailers — They're Ruining Movies for You

Modern trailers are 2-3 minutes long and reveal major plot points, twists, and even final-act moments. They're designed to make you buy a ticket, not to preserve your experience.

The Spoiler Economy

Studios have research showing that trailers with more "reveals" generate higher opening weekends. So they keep showing more. The entire third act of some films has been spoiled in their own marketing.

As a viewer, this means your first watch is compromised. You know the twist. You've seen the big action scene. The emotional reveal doesn't hit as hard because you saw it in a 15-second YouTube ad.

The Blind Watch Advantage

Going into a movie knowing only the basics — genre, rating, and maybe who's in it — leads to dramatically better viewing experiences. You discover the story as the filmmaker intended. Every twist actually surprises you. Every reveal lands.

How to Choose Without Trailers

This is exactly what GoodWatch is designed for. Instead of watching trailers to judge quality, you get:

• GoodScore — quality assurance without spoilers
• Genre and mood tags — know the vibe without the plot
• One clear recommendation — trust the system, press play

Your next movie night could be the best one you've had in months. All you have to do is stop watching trailers and start trusting the score.
