www.apple.com ... you can see pretty much every preview there.
but anyway... it's actually quite simple, with a little research, to make a pretty accurate prediction on what a movie is going to be like. There are some where you can't, but they're not the movies that get big budgets, because hollywood is afraid to put money into something that they're not sure will gather the biggest results. What gathers the biggest results? Predictability. This movie is built around a premise that, from every angle I see, dooms it to be terrible. I hope I'm wrong, honestly, I'd love it not to tarnish the names of the other movies... but looking at it realistically, I'm not going to get my hopes up, because historically, it's very rare that movies made under these types of conditions turn out well.

apple.com sucks on dial-up.
I agree that with a little research you can get a good idea of what a movie is going to be like, but usually that research involves reading the opinions of people who have already seen it and as far as I'm aware, T3 hasn't been screened anywhere yet.
Knowing the premise isn't enough. Premises can look crap on paper but turn out well in their execution, and vice-versa.
