delenasalvatore From what I've heard, some fans are upset in the way the SE story was edited and represented over Damon/DE's story in the trailer. I have actually watched the trailer again and I sort of see what they mean. For example - they're annoyed at the fact that none of Stefan's ripper side was alluded to, (like him feeding from Amber in 1x19, being Klaus' side-kick in early S3, being nasty to Elena when she goes to him for help concerning Jeremy, and scaring her witless by pretending to drive her off the bridge/turn her into a vampire). And that Damon was portrayed as the 'evil' brother he pretended to be in early S1, by him attacking people left, right and centre, biting Elena, Stefan's voice-over of 'There's nothing human left in Damon', Damon himself saying 'I don't do the right thing', and Stefan being horrified at Damon's force-feeding Elena his blood: 'How could you take that choice away from her?' Also, they're annoyed that Caroline's line "Stefan is your epic love" was shown among the early SE scenes when she didn't actually say that until fairly recently. Basically, they're concerned that it didn't show Damon or Delena's love in a positive, or just light, while the trailer white-washed Stelena. If the people who made the vid had even included the scene at the end of 1x03 while Stefan said 'There's nothing human left in Damon' while he stroked Elena's cheek as she slept, then I doubt fans would be so troubled. I'm not saying that I think this trailer is a threat to us, I'm just saying that's why they're upset. They're also worried that the trailer might inadvertently be an indicator of an (SE) endgame. I personally don't see how this trailer should even be classified as a S5 one: it only showed a tiny bit of new footage at the end. It reminded me of a fan-made trailer in that way. Bottom line: a trailer has no effect or power over the fanbase or DE. It's only perceived as a threat if we let it become one.

HaleyDewit All I'm saying is that after 4 seasons I would've thought us Delena fans would have more faith, instead of jumping at a stupid trailer.

delenasalvatore @HaleyDewit, there are always gonna be fans who baulk at what is said in interviews, at trailers and promos etc, no matter how many seasons its been.

DelenaLove201_ What delenasalvatore said. I don't think that it's a threat, nor have I lost faith in Delena. I just think most people are pissed off that the promo creators showed us such a one-sided, biased view of the TV show we've been loyal to for 4 seasons. It's like if someone insulted your child. You don't think they're going to murder your child and you don't start believing what they say. But you still feel protective of the child and likely, if you get angry easily, you will pick a fight with that person.

delenaforever7 I'll just say this : people are missing the point of trailers " marketing " ... A show is a product , all customers should be satisfied , the producers have to sell this product to all of the fan base to make sure everyone is still watching s5 .. now since Elena chose Damon over Stefan in s4 finale , the producers are already sure that delena fans are watching .... Now they need to advertise to the other fan base that is most likely won't be watching " stelena fans " ...put your self in their shoes ( your a stelena fan , Elena just chose Damon , there's no indication that stelena are getting back together , then theres a trailer and it's full of delena great scenes ..would you still be excited to watch s5 ? I don't think so ... ) so people chill its nothing .. Believe me it's marketing 101 ....

msmysticlove AMEN TO THAT!

JanaP I don´t get where people got the idea that the trailer sowed SE are endgame... their part actually showed that their story ended- hence they used the break up scene last- to which JP once said that this scene was supposed to show the real end of SE before they could move on to DE... now the DE clip ended on a note that it´s only the beginning...

thisthat12 I agree with everything above

loveofdelena guys, i really wouldn't worry. it's nothing more than stelena fanservice. you only have to see how the trailer has been made too see that.

ggdelena mime was they didn't show the good damon has done. had it seem that it was all lust when it's not
