Gatchaman Movie Taunter Trailer
What’s a taunter trailer? It’s like a teaser trailer, but more mean-spirited. for instance, this trailer for Imagi’s CG Gatchman movie, doesn’t show the five bird-garbed heroes in any way, shape or form, it just shows a car and a city and a plane. This does not tease the project as much as it taunts fans who might be interested in the movie by giving them absolutely nothing they want or are interested in. Thus, taunter trailer. I’m very much hoping it catches on.
