Basically this is when a work sells itself on including a preview for a much more anticipated work. This is often done with second string titles that would fizzle out on their own. This has become less prevalent (or at least less successful) with the rise of easier video sharing and video game demos on the Internet, but still there are some fandoms dedicated enough to shell out cash for a ticket to Movie You Might Have Ignored Completely if it means they get a chance to see just an ad for Everything You Ever Liked: The Movie. This is also done on TV shows. You get a trailer (more often called a "sneak peek") packed somewhere in the commercials (although usually at the end) for an anticipated blockbuster. Sometimes this works. A person willing to sit through the actual feature may indeed find something they like about it and become a fan. Other times, they just get the preview they wanted and ignore/throw away the rest. The inverse is standard procedure, where an anticipated work includes a preview for a less-hyped title, in the hope that attention will rub off on it. |

Dragon Quest VIII included a demo of Final Fantasy XII in North America (neither series would need such a thing in Japan). This did help the game achieve gold sales in the continent, probably a best for the series at the time (at least until Nintendo localized Dragon Quest IX and gave it a successful marketing campaign) | |

Gravity is an inversion (the "highly-anticipated work promotes a lesser-known one" version) that is actually woven into the narrative. The radio conversation that Stone holds while aboard the Soyuz is actually connected to co-writer Jonás Cuarón's Aningaaq, a short film about a Greenlandic Inuit fisherman out with his huskies, his wife, and his newborn, unable to understand, let alone comfort, the dying astronaut in space. However, this short was written deliberately to work as a companion piece to Gravity: not only does it show the other end of the poignant conversation, the seven-minute short encapsulates the same broad themes of life and death of its larger sibling — just as Stone goes over the brink of despair, Aningaaq himself isn't playing with his dogs as she believes in her film; he's actually devastated over the prospect of sacrificing his beloved, elderly husky. | |

The 2021 Kids' Choice Awards contained an exclusive sneak preview of PAW Patrol: The Movie. In Japan, an exclusive commercial was shown at the end of the premiere of the episode "Pups Bearly Save Danny; Pups Save The Mayor's Tulips". In the United Kingdom, the trailer for the movie was shown before Maya The Bee: The Golden Orb before surfacing online. The trailer for the film was attached to many prints of Spirit Untamed. Coincidentally, Marsai Martin was in both movies. |

Zone of the Enders was at the time of its release widely known as the free game that came with the demo for Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty. How many bought just the demo and ignored the game is hard to tell. But it got a sequel, a portable spinoff, an OVA and a TV series, so evidently some people liked the game. Similarly, the ZOE HD Collection includes a demo for Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance. Lampshade Hanging or Mythology Gag? You decide. |

Ralph Breaks the Internet A Wrinkle in Time (2018) was where many people saw the movie's first trailer - or at least those who didn't already catch it on the actual Internet beforehand. (This is the same teaser that spawned the "bunny gets the pancakes" meme, which got so much steam that it was incorporated into the mid-credits scene once the actual movie released.) The actual movie spoofs this in its stinger. A sneak peek of the Frozen 2 is promised, but instead turns out to be Ralph doing a Rickroll. |

(Annoyed Grunt)" and "Springfield Up") The first teaser was also shown theatrically with Ice Age: The Meltdown.

One part of the update has Martin tell Lisa that 60% of viewers only watch the show for the couch gag (the couch gag that they were discussing was a spoof of Frozen (2013)). |

In fact, this is extremely common with books; often the paperback release of a book will contain a preview of the sequel or another book by the same author as a way of building hype for the upcoming book (and possibly in the hopes of getting people who bought the hardcover to buy the paperback as well). This is parodied in The Princess Bride, which has a preview of a sequel that was never supposed to be written. | |

Phantasy Star Online came with a bonus disk which included the first stage of Sonic Adventure 2 (The Trial). This showcases several differences compared to the final product, including with the cutscene preceding the stage which had its dialogue slightly altered for the final. The most noticeable change, however, is that Sonic was not wearing Soap shoes in this trial. | |

Taken even further with the second trailer for Spider-Man: Far From Home, which was released partway into the theatrical run of Avengers: Endgame and shown after the credits. Justified in that this specific trailer includes major spoilers for Endgame, so adding it to the pre-film trailers wasn't an option. The trailer even starts with Tom Holland telling the viewer to watch Endgame first for those who found the trailer elsewhere! | |

On April 30th, 2019, they premiered the trailer for non-Disney property Sonic the Hedgehog. | |

Commercials for Elektra aired with promises of the first trailer for Fantastic Four (2005). The teaser trailer for Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer debuted in front of screenings of Night at the Museum. Ironically, about ten years later, the reboot for the latter film pulled the same thing by advertising that the movie would feature a trailer for Deadpool. |

The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug included the first teasers for Interstellar and Godzilla. The latter teaser helped convince some fans displeased with The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey to give Smaug a chance, if only to see the skydiving sequence from Godzilla on the big screen. An odd case in that, despite the piggybacking, Smaug outgrossed both Godzilla and Interstellar. | |

A Wrinkle in Time (2018) was where many people saw the movie's first trailer - or at least those who didn't already catch it on the actual Internet beforehand. (This is the same teaser that spawned the "bunny gets the pancakes" meme, which got so much steam that it was incorporated into the mid-credits scene once the actual movie released.) | |

In June 2021, a trailer for Halloween Kills premiered in front of showings of F9; the trailer was quickly leaked and was subsequently released online. Also for F9, the first five minutes of Jurassic World: Dominion premiered in front of IMAX screenings of that film, with posters for Dominion specifically advertising how to watch the preview rather than the eventual release date for the film itself. Unlike Halloween Kills, this footage has not been released online. |

The Sonic trailer was also mysteriously attached to another straight-faced PG-rated Sony drama, A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood.note The abovementioned reason could be used here as well. | |

An odd example with Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows (by Warner Bros.) and Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol (by Paramount). While the first full theatrical trailer for The Dark Knight Rises (also by WB) was attached to Sherlock Holmes, Ghost Protocol got the opportunity to show the six-minute prologue of TDKR, causing many a headache for execs at WB. And only select prints of Sherlock Holmes got the trailer. Most prints had either Rock of Ages and Jack the Giant Slayer attached (and the latter film underwent Trailer Delay afterward, not opening until 2013), or the first teaser trailer of TDKR. |

Crackdown didn't have a demo for Halo 3 (since demos can just be downloaded from Xbox Live), but it had access to the multiplayer beta. Crackdown was expected to get loads of returns after the beta closed, but that was not the case. In fact, Microsoft reported that the Crackdown multiplayer got more play time than the beta (although the actual release of Halo 3 got even more, predictably). Combined with the critical acclaim the game received, Microsoft stated they want a sequel, which they got at E3 2009. It didn't have access to the Halo: Reach multiplayer beta (Halo 3: ODST filled in the spot this time). | |

Sing: As another network cross-promotional example, some ads for the season 11 finale of The Voice (which airs on NBC, part of the NBC Universal conglomerate that also owns Sing studio Illumination Entertainment) boasted that a sneak preview of Sing would air during said finale. The preview mostly consisted of clips that had appeared in previous trailers, but with some alterations that were closer to the movie. For example, they had the rabbits singing "Anaconda", but the clip of Rosita falling down was replaced with one of Buster telling the rabbits to stop singing. | |

The first preview of Revenge of the Sith was shown at the end of an episode of The O.C. ...even though it was advertised as being shown during the show, which meant that TIVO recordings didn't record the whole trailer because it ran past the hour. | |

The video game adaptation of Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines included a demo to another video game adaptation of the same film: Terminator 3: Redemption, which is arguably the only good part about this game. For the record, Redemption is a huge improvement over this one. | |

To get fans of the franchises in question to see Frozen II, the trailers for Sonic the Hedgehog, SCOOB!, The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge on the Run and Trolls World Tour all premiered on prints of the film before anywhere else. For some odd reason, the Sponge on the Run trailer was also attached to many prints of Greta Gerwig's Little Women, of all films, to the point where it became a meme to note how odd the trailer's placement was.note It could be argued that as Little Women catered to families, it's reasonable. The Sonic trailer was also mysteriously attached to another straight-faced PG-rated Sony drama, A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood.note The abovementioned reason could be used here as well. |

The trailer for Die Another Day was attached to prints of Austin Powers in Goldmember as the result of a settlement between Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer and New Line Cinema over using the name "Goldmember" (which MGM felt sounded too similar to Goldfinger). | |
