You can't sue someone for not hinting at story points the way you want at done as quickly as you want it done.(a least I hope you can't) What story points do they advertise? Monty himself has said that the Red trailer is completly opposite of Ruby's personality due to him not knowing just who Ruby was going to be.

If you don't know what you're making, don't advertise.

To the last one. It's not beacuse he didn't do them as fast as I wanted; it's beacuse he didn't do them ''at all. ''Again, I make a anime, but the scences I advertised are not at all in the first half of the season, and the second half doesnt seem to have it either if the trailer is anything to go by.

How much crap would I be in if I did that?

For some reason you guys keep defending it, and I don't know why.

I'm one of the few that don't defend the trailers, but that is because after seeing the show they don't really fit the definition. As I said in a previous comment, they are basically mini-animations meant to give us some kind of insight into the characters and going by that, I feel they do a good job:
 * Ruby despite having no lines, does appear to have that confident attitude and shows off her fighting skills.
 * Blake is shown leaving the White Fang after seeing how far they have fallen.
 * Yang's personality as a flirt and her skills in battle are probably shown the most out of all four.
 * Weiss' trailer is the only one I have a problem with, as her powers work much differently then how Dust is used/explained in the show and there are a few hints suggesting that it wasn't real (at least not how we saw it). The song however does explain some of her personality.

However we never really got a legitimate trailer for the show, but I don't mind what we have so far. Plus the trailers are considered cannon so over time, we will probably see where they lead to. As far as introductions to the characters, I think they did pretty well. As trailers for the show however, they are very poor. It all depends on what you wanted out of them.
