3. There are many characters of a particular franchise like The Smurfs, Alvin and the Chipmunks, Woody Woodpecker, and Clifford, that at times become the reason for the failure. Because no one wants to watch such characters any more.

5. Also, the streaming service’s description tells enough about the movie. However, when it is just a list of the celebrities and their accolades instead of the story of the movie, it isn’t very pleasing to the audience.

6. When the movie is publicized well ahead of its release through TV commercials. It helps to attract the audience before the word of it being bad gets out.

7. The purpose of the trailer is to captivate an audience. It is inclusive of the most exciting, funny, or otherwise noteworthy parts of the film. But, sometimes the music stops so that the main character can say something very extraordinary which isn’t likeable to many.
