Exploring genres and timelines of film trailers

Charlie and the chocolate factory
Genre:Family
0:05- The first clip in the trailer is the first scene of the film, showing the audience what the chocolate factory looks like.
0:26- Showing poster on the street lamp post which is about 15 minutes into the film, I have already noticed a pattern, and that the trailer is in the same time as the actual film.
0:38- Searching for the golden tickets, again near the begginging of the film.
0:55-1:15- Introdducing the children to Willy Wonka, which is in the middle of the film, this is being shown half way through the trailer.
1:58- Showing the two remaining children that are left in the factory. Thisw part of the trailer is giving clues to the ending, which is fairly obvious in the first place.
2:02- Willy Wonka quotes 'only one' which is refering to Charlie. It is an obvious story line but the ending is given away in the trailer.
