Dear Teachers,

1. The trailers and ads of the movie had me convinced it was a complete waste of time.

- Why don't we use "..of the movie had convinced me that it was.." in this situation?

Thanks very much!

Other than a (very slight) change in emphasis I don't see any difference in these two versions.
