Yes, and how dare adults decide not to go see a children's movie if they think it looks like something they won't enjoy?

People quite reasonably make decisions about what movies to see based on trailers all the time; it's why movie trailers exist. If a person hates everything they see of the snowman in the trailer and it sours them on the rest of the movie preview, what possible reason would they have to go see the rest of the movie? Do you make a habit of going to see movies whose trailers annoy you, just to find out if you were right in being annoyed?

If there were a movie I wanted to see and then there was one thing I didn't like in the trailer, I wouldn't probably still see it, perhaps after checking some reviews to see how much screentime was used on the thing I didn't like. I wouldn't write it off completely just because one part of it wasn't exactly how I wanted it.

"Do you make a habit of going to see movies whose trailers annoy you, just to find out if you were right in being annoyed?"

No. But I don't go on the internet before the release and yell that anyone who does want to see it is an idiot and that the movie shouldn't exist because I don't like it. Why are you intentionally misunderstanding? I don't care if people don't like or don't want to watch this film, the secret was addressed to the small(ish) group of people who have been wanking about how it's the worst movie in the world JUST because of the snowman ever since the first trailer came out.

I'm not "intentionally misunderstanding" anything. If the secret was intended to target only people who were contributing to wank on the internet about the snowman, rather than people who didn't want to see the movie for reasons that included the snowman, then it was a badly written secret. If the text of the secret had spent more time talking about internet wank and less time going on about how dare people be annoyed by something annoying, it might've been more clear.
