Trailer moment
n.
1. a term used to sarcastically highlight widely recognizable moments in film or television, initially disclosed through trailers, previews, and sneak peeks; which intergrade a cliché context, adhering to stereotypes surrounding genre and target audience. when used, the term embodies a condemnation of hollywood cinema, the failure to innovate, and a reliance on cinematic clichés as a means attracting, and maintaining the appeal of a broader audience. examples are often defined as corny; and identified in scenes described with intense action, powerful emotion, witty one-liners, or general “awe”.
not to be confused with trailer déjà vu; trailer moments refer to instances actually used in the theatrical trailer, preview, or sneak peek.
