Did the extensive content of the trailers spoil it for the viewer?

Rating: 7/10 (3 June 2012)

I personally think that the detailed trailers took the shine off what could have been a gripping movie,enabling the viewer to guess what was going to happen. The movie itself only disappoints those who assume its a direct prequel to the 1979 classic,i myself saw it for what it was (the 1st of probably three prequels. I am fascinated to see where and how far these other prequels can be taken and if we can get back to the darkness and unpredictability of the 1979 film. I'm sure Ridley will already have a very good idea of their content and direction.Again i do believe that people have been given too much information regarding the extensive trailers and spoilers,lets have some surprises for the rest of the prequels.
