...Fluke trailer is also typical of the new previews in that it seems to tell the film's entire story. So does the Crimson Tide preview, plot point by plot point, up to and including the climax. Get your granulated motion picture right here, in three hectic minutes! Anything longer is considered the director...

We even get to hear some of what Marler said during his exam, recited while a passage from The Four Seasons is played...
