Am I really seeing people complain about a teaser trailer that is "only" 88 seconds long?  It's a teaser!

 nope.  since star trek has 10 minute trailer, that set the new bar.  accept nothing less.

now, if the 88 second ends with c3P0 announcing the OOT on blu-ray, then it'll make up for it.

 I thought that was just the first ten minutes of the movie, and only if you went to an IMAX venue?

 Yes, that was my impression as well.

 hope everyone had good thanksgiving

i dont know if it was first 10 minutes of movie - i havent actually seen the new star trek movies yet :P

Correct, it was on LieMax Hobbit.  i dunno, its obviously too much to ask for them to show an entire sequence like they did for Dark Knight - maybe for Epsiode VIII they can do it.  Just still think 88 seconds is excessively short.  All a teaser needs to do is set the premise and the tone of the movie.  The teaser for XMEN DOFP was one of the best I have seen in years.  I found out later on that the music used was actually cliche and also used in inception and sunshine, but man it moved me.

actualy starting to get more interested in the teaser poster.  There have been a few movies wehre I thought the teaser poster was better than the release poster.  AOTC was one,  KOTCS was another.
