Are trailers revealing too much again nowadays? (filmstories.co.uk)

Recent trailers have revealed plot points that would normally be considered spoilers. Should studios stop doing this?

It was iffy there for awhile, but with the advent of superhero movies and the like, it's gotten way worse. Dropping names of cameos or guest stars, too much of the plot, ruining jokes in the movie, etc.

I don't even begin to watch trailers unless I know nothing about the film/IP.
