Those brilliant marketers who assembled the trailer for Long Shot (Lionsgate, 5.3), the Seth Rogen-Charlize Theron political romcom that nobody and I mean nobody is going to buy into, presumably know that they made a bad-grammar choice in their trailer copy.
Because that’s what marketers will often do — they’ll express themselves like a typical under-educated, mall-roaming dumbass in order to speak the language (slanguage?) of the serfs.
So instead of saying “from the guys who brought you Neighbors and Knocked Up,” they’re saying “from the guys that brought you,” etc.
