Agreed. Also, I give the woman some credit since she's apparently just suing for the price of her ticket and for the practice to stop, not
for some ridiculous sum of money. Ultimately I don't think she has a case and I'm pretty sure she'll lose, but I don't mind the statement being made. I think the only way someone could win a lawsuit like that is probably if none of the scenes in the trailer are in the actual movie or if they feature entirely different actors or something like that. For better or for worse, all of the scenes in the Drive trailer (or at least the huge majority) came straight from the movie.
THR: A Michigan woman sued FilmDistrict over misleading [DRIVE] trailer Oct 10, 10:12
that's insane. Oct 10, 10:34
And how did she miss all the violence in the trailer. I don't remember any shotguns in the Fast and Furious trailers. {nm} Oct 10, 10:36
Terrible movie. If anything, the trailer made it look way better than it actually was {nm} Oct 10, 10:41
You are, in some ways, my favourite "contrarian" on these forums.. :-) Oct 11, 02:39
I hope she wins so that Hollywood will give pause before releasing more of these bait and switch trailers. {nm} Oct 10, 11:05
All marketing and advertsing is misleading. What makes this case any worse? Oct 10, 11:23

I actually saw Drive without checking out the trailer since I know Refn {nm} Oct 10, 13:28
*know Refn's work. But I was shocked when I saw it later. The trailer isn't inaccurate. It gives away EVERYTHING! {nm} Oct 10, 13:29
Just what "false content" was in Drive's trailer? EVERYTHING that was in the trailer was in the movie, even the music! {nm} Oct 10, 14:05
I'm going to sue Warner for the lost time on, and insulting everyones intelligence in Inception AND Suckerpunch ! {nm} Oct 10, 11:55
I also think the film was a progressive portrayal of Jews. How often do you see a real tough guy Jew? Oct 10, 14:10
