Coming Attractions Trailer Night Winter 2009 Voting Results

The results of our audience poll (of what people were most anticipating seeing...or not) – based on the trailers they watched. Sometimes people are interested in a film but the trailer is below expectations (or exceeds therm), tells too much or too little or just isn’t great. On the rating scale of 0 to 5, there were no 5s or 1s.

Very Interested (4 on the scale)
