Kangaroo Jack and Friday the 13th part 8, Suicide Squad!
Bridge to Terabithia, and Kangaroo Jack
Branded 2012, and The Item 1999, both had trailers that misled you about what kind of story you are going to see, like not just wrong story, but wrong genre of marketing
The Village
Before seeing MUTO, I thought Godzilla would be the main antagonist. I’m actually glad I was wrong, because Monsterverse Godzilla is such a badass antihero.
True, and we’d eventually get the scary “force of nature” type of Godzillas with Shin and the Minus One movies anyways! Both versions of the character have a place and are cool to see.
The one thing I still wish in his first movie. We had more scenes with Godzilla and a better cinematography because at the end, you can barely see the battles with the Moto’s
Yes. Godzilla fighting other monsters is Godzilla at his best.
Gojira has never been bad in the MonsterVerse... He is a hero not an antihero...
@@gravityfallscanada I thought he was more Anti-Hero!
The Godzilla trailer misleading was for the best. They kept the main antagonist hidden all along.
Trouble is it wasn't that interesting of an antagonist
Watch Mojo should make a list of How many times scenes have been shown in the previews, but were never made into the actual movie
I think they’ve already done it
The Grey turned out to be better than what I had expected at the time.
Really? Top 10 worst film I’ve seen lol
@@swifty250000agreed!
💯 ..there were plenty of repetitive Neeson action movies to follow.
That Hercules movie with The Rock. All the mythological monster fight scenes from the trailer was actually just someone telling fake stories in the first few minutes of the movie. The rest of the movie was just crap!
10 000 bc also
Kangaroo Jack PISSED ME OFF when I was a kid lmao. It made me think it was the outback version of scooby doo with a talking kangaroo and it ends up the only time he talks is when that one dude from stand by me was tripping from heat stroke 😂
I’m sorry but when they mention Wonka and saying people didn’t know it was a musical have they not watched Willy Wonka with Gene Wilder??? Like it’s a musical
I know right? I’d actually see the films more if they did make it clear they were musicals as I love musicals.
Excuse me--where is My Girl??? Many childhoods were traumatized because of the misleading trailers for that movie.
The Rogue One Teaser & Trailer are both chock-full of dialogue and shots that are all missing from the final cut. We were all so stoked to see Jyn vs the Tie Fighter. 😭
I wanted so badly to see how she escaped the TIE Fighter! I was so bummed it wasn’t in the film.
*Sees the trailer*- "Oh this could be a good movie"
*Finishes the movie* "Turns out it wasn't good"
That’s the point of movie trailers: To make a movie look good
You forgot Infinity War, where we see the Hulk running alongside the Avengers instead, we got the Hulk Buster.
Bruh I never saw that film
That’s more of a misdirect to not show potential spoilers, I mean if you look Thanos in all those trailers only has two stones, when he has most of them in various scenes
I think part of it was to show something without having "spoilers". It's like how Thor has two eyes still in a Thor: Ragnarok scene (which takes place after Hela slashes his eye) in the trailer.
One I'm surprised no one brings up is "Man of the year" (2006) which was advertised as a goofy political comedy starring Robin Williams as a comedian who decided to run for president and won, but it was actually a conspiracy thriller with occasional comedic moments.
The misleading that Godzilla 2014 was good in terms of pleasantly surprising people like me who prefer seeing Godzilla fighting other monsters as opposed to being solo and destroying stuff on his own
Seeing my first Godzilla battle in theaters is an experience I will never forget.
Godzilla was in the 2014 Godzilla movie?
@@MiketheratguyMultimedia
😂 I know right. That movie is awful!
Spongebob: Sponge Out of Water. The way the trailer sets up the movie was perfect. Starting within the 2D-world of Bikini Bottom before moving upwards the shore where the REAL fun begins. But the movie mostly takes place underwater for 3/5ths or 4/5ths of the movie(?). I assume the 3D animation and getting land to film the movie was pricy, so choices had to be made. Still, it could've been SO much better.
The only clues that Mean Girls 2024 was a musical from the trailer, was Regina starting to sing, and the musical note in the logo. Many musicals seem to be ashamed of BEING musicals, as evidenced by Sweeney Todd, Les Miserables and Wonka.
The thing I don't understand is that if Hollywood thinks people don't want to go see a musical, why do they keep making them??
@@Fluffyudders There's still a little bit of a stigma around musicals.
When I was growing up, it was very "un-manly" or 'gay" to admit you like musicals.
Times have changed, but some people haven't got the memo.
@@jameskelly3502 Well yeah I get that, but why make a movie you then have to mislead people about in the trailer because otherwise people would avoid it? Like, if you're worried that people don't want to see a musical, then why make one in the first place?
And the dancing, alll the dancing.
They should be. Musicals suck.
Rise of Skywalker made it seem like Emperor Palpatine would return near the end. Instead, he returns right away.
The Disney trilogy faked me out by pretending to be real Star Wars movies.
That's actually just you imagining that which is silly, people knew it was the final film I the Trilogy and palatine laughing in the trailer implies he's a main threat in the film not some teaser for a future project, you don't show off your "twist " in a trailer
Madame Web is the textbook definition of Misleading Trailer
It wasn't misleading. It showed it was garbage in the trailer and it delivered garbage
Believe it or not I actually expected Wonka to be a musical because the original, the one this film is a prequel for, was a musical. Downsizing was the film that tricked me the most
Yeah and you do see them singing with choreographed dancing in the trailer, so yeah I don't think anyone was expecting any different.
2014 Godzilla's trailer had me astonished and jaw drop to see this monster have an amazing new look.
Reign of Fire (2002) had a trailer that sold the film as ID4 with Dragons. Instead dragons destroyed the world offscreen in the prologue and ran a post-apocalyptic low tech survival film.
Oh my God I remember that trailer. Me and my buddies were so hyped to go see that in the theaters thinking we were going to get a Nonstop Action Movie with helicopters and jets fighting dragons, hell even the poster made it seem like it was a cool movie like that, and next thing you know, it's nothing like the trailers...at all!
I saw it in the theater thinking it would be awesome, it was so boring. I have never watched it since.
There's not a single shot of anyone singing in the trailer for Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street (2007). That movie is a musical. But, the trailer made it look like a horror movie.
I tried to watch it, knowing it was a musical (I hate musicals) and when a young boy started singing with in the first few minutes I cringed and turned it off.
There was a Carol Burnett movie some years back called A Wedding (1978). The trailer presented it as Slapstick comedy and it actually was a black comedy. I didn't like it then because of the wrong expectations I went in with. Watching it later, it was an excellent movie as long as you went in with the proper expectations.
Highlander: Endgame & The Crow: City of Angels are the two movies I always think of when it comes to most misleading movie trailers ever. The Crow 2's trailer had Ash shapeshifting into a crow & than back into his regular human form while Highlander: Endgame featured Connor & the other McLeod traveling thru magical portals and the film's antagonist cloning himself instantly after being cut in half in battle, none of which actually appeared or happened in either film respectively🤷
That Endgame trailer was so bizarre. Was there a a massive recut (reshoot) that edited out those elements? Effects aren't cheap to do so they wouldn't just make those for the trailer.
Marley & Me tricked me so bad. Still mad about that one
🏆🥇
Yeah I came here to say this took my little nephew to see it.
I felt like Avengers: Infinity War trailer tricked me. Remember when they showed The Hulk running with Cap, Black Widow, Winter Soldier. Black Panther, and Falcon? The Hulk wasn’t even IN that scene. ‘Till we found out they changed to Bruce Banner in the HulkBuster Armor.
Did it affect your expectations for the movie?
@@WatchMojo, it kinda did. I thought the Hulk would ACTUALLY be in Wakanda.
MCU was big on throwing diversions so we didn't know what we were actually getting, but I agree. Hulk was a let down in IW.
This list made me realize I really didn't pay attention to Mean Girls.
when i saw the trailer of Godzilla from 2014 it made me scared and terrified of how scary he is but when i watch the film it's not even that scary.
I mean.. the scene in the airport. Can't say that didn't even give you chills
The main attraction was Bryan Cranston and Godzilla itself. In the end they both compete to see who has less screentime
😂
I thought the same thing with The Dark Knight when it first came out, like Heath Ledger killed it, honestly made it hard to actually watch the movie after the trailer
Man, just imagine how bad it was for those of us who saw Godzilla '98 before everyone knew the truth.
Here's 2 examples missing from your list:
Firstly, Sucker Punch. The trailer for that movie made it look incredible, a totally off-the-wall action movie with amazing effects, girls fighting giant stone samurais with machine guns and all sorts. Turns out they were fantasy sequences and most of the movie takes place in an asylum where girls do ballet. Bitterly disappointing! This should have definitely made this list!
Second, Phenomenon. Not as confident on this one as it dates back to when I was around 12 years old. At the time Independence Day and X-Files meant kids our age were obsessed with aliens. The trailer for Phenomenon made it seem like it was all about aliens so me and a bunch of friends excitedly went to see it. It's basically about a guy who gets cancer or something. It was so boring we ended up running around the conveniently empty screening. Should make an honourable mention!
Scanning through the comments looks like you need to make another list for this topic!
Yeah phenomenon screwed with me as a kid. I love aliens and then I was terrified I was gonna get brain cancer.
“That’s me mother! She’s a bear! The trailer was very misleading!”
-Merida, Robot Chicken, Disney Princess Sketch
Good call. I was excited for brave and while I still enjoy it now and again, I was disappointed after I first saw it in theaters.
Batman v Superman Dawn of Justice and Zack Snyder’s Justice League comes to mind. Shame considering I like Man of Steel. Can’t forget The Last Jedi and The Rise of Skywalker.
I still like Godzilla 2014 despite the issues.
😂😂😂😂😂
Good job calling these out, Mojo.
How did 'Sunshine' not make this list? That trailer made it look like a straight up action film. If the scenes from the 'Rogue One' trailer were in the final film, it would've been completely different to what we got.
Are you talking about the Danny Boyle movie Sunshine where they travel to the Sun to try and ignited again with a bomb? It was a really good sci-fi drama and suspense piece up until the last act with the dude from the 1st ship being a psycho murderer and then it turned into a slasher/action movie at the end.
Godzilla 2014 was a real letdown. They set up for a monster battle only to cut away to a news report about it. It’s obvious they were doing this to try to build up the final battle. But it failed.
Worst in the MonsterVerse.
It was beyond known that Mean Girls was gonna be a musical, I was so confused why people were acting so shocked. They made it clear it was based off the Broadway show.
Also, the 1st 2 Wonka movies were musicals, why wouldn’t the 3rd be 1 as well??
I dont consider the second one to be a musical. The only songs in there are from the ompa loompas when each kid goes right?
Whereas the original had multiple other characters with numbers as well.
@@robertheadley3483 I can agree there. To me it’s a musical cause they’re multiple different songs, even if they’re all by the Oompa Loompas
Every single trailer I saw for the Mean Girls remake had songs and dance scenes in them, which logically would imply musical numbers. Where are these misleading versions???
“Place Beyond The Pines”
While still an awesome film. The trailer made it seem like another “Drive” film due to its success with Gosling. It was indeed definitely not a Drive copycat.
I’ll also add “It Comes At Night”. A movie advertised as a tense creature horror film and it was just an empty boring psychological thriller.
I hate it comes at night for that reason. It reminded me of the “in between” episodes of the walking dead. U know, the boring ones.
Number one should've been Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom. The trailer made it look like it was gonna be dinosaurs running wild in America. Most of the trailer shows scenes from the last five minutes of the movie so after seeing it in the theater, we realized that the NEXT one was gonna be dinosaurs in America. Then, we waited four years for dinosaurs in America, only to find out in the first few minutes in a montage clip that they had been a problem but were now captured and in a remote sanctuary. Also, there was an infestation of giant locusts and that was going to be the main focus.
Pixar's "Brave" - I thought it was going to be a movie about a strong, female character who's a princess that shoots arrows at things. It turned out to be primarily about a girl who accidentally turns her Mom into a bear.
I wanted to like Brave, but for reasons I've never been able to perfectly articulate, I found it quite dull.
I did too. I also can't put my finger on why. I've seen lots of animated Disney and Pixar movies and most of them are great. Brave just felt so minor, so utterly forgettable. It's just she and her mom running around in a castle for 80 minutes.
@@MiketheratguyMultimedia RIGHT?? Such wasted potential!
@@monstersociety3360 It really was. All I remember was the main character trying to hide the bear mom and something about the men wanting to marry her. I honestly forget everything else. :(
The Force Awakens was the most misleading trailer for me. I thought Finn was going to be the new face of Star Wars and the new Jedi but it turned out to actually be Rey.
Yeah, all the promotional material before it was released showed Finn holding the lightsaber.
@@KevyNova Finn was even set up as the main character in the first half of the film with Rey being a sidekick but then the movie changed when Rey touched that lightsaber. That's one of my problems with the movie it couldn't decide who's the main character in not just the film but the sequel trilogy, Finn or Rey. Rey being the face of the sequel trilogy felt like a last minute writing change which goes to show how unplanned the trilogy was.
Not misleading; he and Rey were the leads of The Force Awakens. SOMEONE then decided to wreck his character while focusing mainly on Rey in the Last Jedi.
Hulk was in the _Infinity War_ trailer, but Banner in Mark 49 (Hulkbuster Two-Point-Zero) in the actual movie was a better choice.
No ! it wasn't ! Hulk should be in Wakanda, not just banner in hulkbuster...
Let’s not also forget The Village. People who forgive the movie always argue “Well, if you saw the trailer, you probably expected a horror film. But it’s not. It’s a love story.”
…granted, BOTH stories sucked and I just expected a good film, but one can’t help but see how awful the marketing was for that movie.
Madame Web.
We did not get the legendary cinematic line of
“He was in the Amazon with my mom when she was researching spiders right before she died”
We did.
@@o.m9514 I meant in the movie. We heard it only in the trailer.
Love your video, WatchMojo
Even though The Grey trailer was misleading - I MUCH preferred the dark and thoughtful movie we got - better than what was promised
I'm still miffed about that Alien 3 rug-pull.
Godzilla also barely showed Godzilla as well. He has an extremely small amount of screen time relatively speaking to be a headliner
I still remember as a child how pissed I was that Kangaroo Jack wasn't able to talk.
That mean Girls remake was terrible and the trailer showed it.
There's this movie called Oh Lucy! starring Shinobu Terajima and Josh Harnett. It's made to look like a quirky comedy-drama, with the names of Will Ferrell and Adam McKay shown as exec producers.
It was depressing. Great film, but it will catch you by surprise if you saw the trailer.
"Beauty and the Beast: The Enchanted Christmas", where they hardly show the nightmare fule of the evil pipe organ Forte.
Paranormal Activity... all of them, but definitely 3 with the Bloody Mary scene.
Mission Impossible - helicopter never crashed into truck
Ted 2 - car crash leading to explosion was taken out
Oh Man U opened some old wounds for me lol I loved the first 2 PA movies and was so pissed at the 3rd. They also said the last 15 minutes were so scary people were crying. Pft ok…LIES lol
This compilation is just reminding me why I havent taken movie trailers seriously in 20 years.
Great video! The village should've been added though lol
Nah. When you go to a Shyamalan movie, you know it's never going to be what you think. That's just his style, for better or worse.
@@ariadnefrolich7243 yeah but they marketed the village as a creature feature and it was a drama. Even m night said he didn't like the way they marketed it lol
@@MeganLawson-jx6wz Fair enough.
The grey’s final moment is absolutely phenomenal.
The trailer for Mr. Magoo with Leslie Nielsen made it look like a fun comedy, but nobody in the theater was laughing or having fun.
“Bring it On.” IYKYK.
A monster calls promised a fantasy story about a boy and his giant. Instead we get a story about a boy learning to deal with grief.
Back in the 1970s, I got screwed by Steve McQueen when he used himself to promote a motorcycle racing documentary in which he appeared for (literally) a 30-second cameo.
I remember a friend of mine took his daughter to bridge to terabethia. He said afterwards that the trailer was completely misleading and his daughter was angry. He said they were wrong to do that to kids going to see that movie.
My sister was traumatized by that movie. She still gets pissed when people bring it up lol
For me, one of the movies in more recent years that I felt a sense of robbed from was Avengers: Age of Ultron.
That initial trailer felt so dark and serious with Spader menacingly delivering "No Strings On Me", it just felt like this was going to be an intense MCU film with a lot at stake.
And then the movie came out and felt largely boring and predictable although a few good scenes throughout, with Ultron really not feeling like a threat at all and the film basically focusing more on "seeding" for upcoming sequels or setting up next movies that it didn't spend enough time focusing on its own.
I felt this movie was completely different from that trailer and pushed me into hardly ever watching movie trailers anymore, especially with MCU has I learned they were doing more bait and switch to avoid spoilers but also change a movie's tone.
Now I'll watch an initial teaser/reveal and maybe the first trailer and that's it.
In fairness, I'm not really sure how much of that is the fault of the trailer. They absolutely dropped the ball with Ultron and ruined one of Marvel's best villains. The practically made him a figure of fun. I guess you could blame the trailer for making him seem more menacing, but it's more the fault of the movie itself.
@@Fluffyudders right, but that's what I'm saying. I did address that in my paragraph where I basically explain my issues with the movie. I did buy it, I watched it again but it Forest do anything for me. I replaced the bluray red case with a standard blue one and gave the red one to Dredd 🤘
I’m really surprised “Poltergeist” didn’t make the list. My mom said the trailer made it look like a supernatural comedy, sort of what “Ghostbusters” would become a couple years later. Nope. It was a horror film, and since she detests horror, she HATED the movie and felt like the preview ripped her off!
Kind of surprised Disney's "Brave" didn't make the list. That film was nothing like what was advertised.
Wow. For once, Kangaroo Jack has been acknowledged.
Every single person who saw the trailer thought it was going to be about a talking kangaroo. And everyone was pissed when it wasn't! Justifiably.
Where were The Amazing Spiderman 2 and Rogue One
Madame Web?!?! With all of the shots of the Spider Girls being just a vision of the future? Someone called that weeks ahead of time on Twitter too. Not me, but still.
Can you do top 10 misleading movies or misleading movie titles
The adjustment bureau trailer had me fooled. Thought it would be just a straight up thriller and then leaned more into romance. A good movie though.
I suppose the alternative is an accurate trailer that shows literally every moment of action in three minutes.
I remember The American with George Clooney getting some flak because the audience assumed it would be an international action thriller, judging by the trailer.
Instead, if was more of a 60s homage crime-drama closer to arthouse.
I went and saw that at the movie theater and was so mad I'd wasted my money. I thought it would be more spy action and instead got boring.
Reel Steel trailer made it look like Hugh was an awesome dad who shadow boxes with robots throughout the entire movie. Instead he was a POS dad, and the shadow boxing didn't happen til the very end. Still kinda liked it, but I thought I was going to love it is all.
Executive decision was misleading in a good way. We thought it would be just another bad Steven Segal movie. But when his character was killed off in the first 15 minutes it became instantly better.
Not having Collateral Beauty on this list is criminal
Scott pilgrim takes off 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀
No Rogue One?
On Yesterday, the only thing that annoyed me was how heavy they went on the love story part of it. Wasn’t expecting that from the trailer.
But, it was worth sitting through all the awkward, chemistry-less love story parts to get to the scene with Robert Carlyle.
Ruby Gillman’s trailers tricked people into thinking that Chelsea the mermaid is a straightforward villain but in the movie, she’s a plot twist villain
Funny People. The trailer had you expecting a light comedy, not a drama on mortality and regret. I was so pissed watching this in theatres, I'd gone in needing a light movie and absolutely didn't get one.
Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow. The trailer promised a steampunk sci-fi action movie starring Angelina Jolie. The movie instead gave us a parody of a film that doesn't exist with ridiculous set pieces that failed to thrill, dialogue that makes Uwe Boll look like Shakespeare, and barely any Angelina.
Pan's Labyrinth. The trailer promised an adult fantasy film where a girl escapes a sad life into a fantastical world she was a long lost Princess. What we got was a grimmer than grim portrayal of a girl with a fantasy that was a coping mechanism to deal with an absolutely hopeless crushing reality.
8:11 Cyrano is a musical!
They’re not saying it’s not
@Miles_G_Reviews so it's not a musical they showed Wonka afterwards and that's a musical
@@randomreviews4278 they’re talking about how it was advertised
OMG! 2006 Black Christmas pissed me off. At that time they had a lot of up-coming and up-rising female actors but the trailers filmed so many death or action scenes that werent even in the film! And even when the DVD came out NOT even as deleted scenes. Like WTF! I think they even had two other female actors on the trailer that werent in the film.
I really wanted to see that death scene where she's dragged towards the spinning Christmas lights. She gets killed differently, though.
There's three different versions of the film. The US theatrical, the unrated version and a UK version. The UK version has most of the scenes that were cut in the US version.
@@SymbioticDivisions what you talking about? Those scenes never seen the light of day and even director said it was just promotional shoots. Which meant just for trailer. Which means false advertising. I owned that DVD back in 2007 and saw the UK version. Not much different. Just one of the girls death scene was switch compared to the US and the ending. The scenes that showed the action "a hand popping out of ice, a dark-hair girl getting dragged with lights, someone falling from the roof" was all fake. Those scenes in the trailer made it look like it was going to be a fun action slasher but instead got like 45min of back-story and then finally action last 30 minutes but happen so fast and made you think like wait... thats it?
When I think of a misleading trailer, I think of Tammy. It was shown as another Melissa McCarthy raunchy comedy, but it was actually a really sweet movie. Trailers need to at least get the tone of the movie across!
Bridge to Terabithia was one of the most shocking differences I've seen. I remember the early trailers for Alien 3 saying something like, "on Earth everyone can hear you scream". After the disappointing Aliens vs Predator, it might be better where they put it
I read the book in elementary school and even then it didn’t have a happy ending
even though I absolutely love it; it’s pure insanity that Drive is not on this list even as an honorable mention
Bicentennial Man had me effed up as a kid! I thought it was gonna be a fun family movie, but that movie was sad and depressing.
I'm surprised Dead Poet Society wasn't mentioned. I recall the trailer for that film making me think I was going to see a comedy.
Some of the trailers for the 1998 film Fear And Loathing In Las Vegas made it out to be like it was a slapstick comedy, but there's much more to it than that.
Hiding the fact that your movie is a musical is a HORRIBLE idea.
I'm gonna drop a movie title I doubt many will know off the bat: Katsuhito Ishii's "The Taste Of Tea".
Granted, every last one of the strange scenes shown in the trailer actually **did** end up in the film, but the film itself turned out to be a surprisingly chill, down-to-Earth story with the majority of the odd moments simply occurring within stories being told to the little girl protagonist by the adults around her. Frankly, the only TRULY strange thing in the film was Protag-Chan's hallucination(?) of a giant version of her own face silently watching her throughout the film, and a silly (and more importantly, 100% diegetic) earworm of a song about a mountain in the middle.
The trailer for Godzilla might have been a little misleading but the movie was great
Anyone else remember the Mercedes advert with Benicio del Toro? My friend and I were quite disappointed when we realised that wasn't for a real movie. We may have been high at the time.
Collateral Beauty is the soapbox I stand on for a misleading trailer. I love the movie, but the trailer greatly frustrated me!
Gladiator when it came out looked like it was going to be about football.
I mean, "Bridge to Terabithia" is also a book, lol.
Godzilla is awesome
Just fyi, THE RULES OF ATTRACTION trailer wanted me to ask, “did watchmojo even look at me?”
The trailer for the John Leguizamo film _Empire_ conveyed an action revenge story after Leguizamo's hoodlum character is scammed out of lot of money. In the actual film the scam is a tertiary storyline. Trailer footage implying revenge on the scammers is "just" footage of Leguizamo's crew taking over local bars are such for the criminal Empire for which Leguizamo works. (One redeeming scene has Leguizamo internally explaining how to ride out being arrested and police-interrogated.)
I remember how excited I was for the second Spongebob movie, its trailers promised that the main characters were going to be out of the water, becoming superheroes and joining forces... only for it to happen on the last 20 minutes left in the movie, the trailers essentially spoiled the whole climax and misslead 12 year old me into thinking that the whole movie was taking place in the surface
I give shoutout to instant Family - the trailer portrays it as a cringey comedy but it’s actually a heartwarming drama about becoming a family unit. The trailer did it dirty, I might’ve never seen it if my group was not seeing it one night but it was a pleasantly good movie.
