well, I did get stuck going to see Kingdom of Heaven (but only b/c both CP and I are aware of the actual history and had this bizarre notion the movie might actually, y'know, SHOW the history -- which in fact is far more interesting than the crap they had in the movie, which baffled me: why take a really awesome story and make it stupid? it's not like you had to do any work, the history was already written!) ...
but otherwise? no. not a movie watcher. i think we do about a movie a year, and I mean in toto -- we don't rent, don't have tv, and just rarely can be that arsed to get up and go see anything (even considering that most doesn't appeal anyway).
I still watch trailers (I like the editing, actually) and some of these? you don't need to see the movie to know that's the trope. it's just screamed from the very first frame.
