Why are you so angry about this? Does it matter that much to you that everything be completely perfect and consistant?

Monty made the trailer by himself and brought other people in afterwards. The trailers are canon, except for the red tailer which was made so early in production that there wasn't even a production yet.

The White trailer is probably Weiss' inner thoughts and probably never physically happened.

If you're so put off that this isn't the story you wanted to see, then why do you still watch it? This show is clearly causing you a great deal of anger, so just drop it and move on.

You wanted character development? So, is that at the cost of character introduction and world-building and plot setup and all the prequisites necessary to even begin developing characters? Because you can't do that. Volume 1 had a run time of just under 2 hours. Two. Hours. Is that long enough to accomplish anything beyond basic introductions and setup?

Action scenes are nice, but they're not the only thing worth watching in RWBY. If they were, we wouldn't have made it past episode 3, let alone the Jaune Arc. They're few and far in-between, but good when they come.

I hardly think of Monty as a god, and why shouldn't I believe him when he says that more is coming? With the potential I saw in Volume 1, added to the fact that Miles and Kerry are writers, I think that the story can only go up from here.

As for the robbing us blind part, I haven't spent a cent in the whole time of watching RWBY that I didn't regret spending. The DVD was entertaining and I wish I could buy some of the merchandise. Aside from that, how is it just a "money-grab"? RT might be a really nice company, but they have to make money somehow. Do you flip out every time Achievement Hunter releases a new t-shirt, because it's even more ridiculous there than it is with RWBY.

Overall, I have absolutely no idea what you're going on about. It just seems to me that you just want something to be angry about. I've read both of your rants, and I just think you need to calm down.
