• The inter-title that says (1) days. is in the form of how the inter title that said 500days of summer was in the teaser trailer-synergy.
• More diagetic sound from characters.story is unraveling more and more we get to know what characters are like ourselves rather than hearing from the narration.
• More shots that we are not familiar with are shown but most are shots seen from the teaser trailer.
• Inter title that appears showing the number of days appears again e.g. (1) days. helps audience understand how the title of the movie links with the movie itself. we've learnt that he is counting the days with summer or how many days she has been present in his life and they lasted 500 days.
• Humorous conversation shown to draw in people who like some humour.Adult humour showing the movie is for an adult intended audience.
