QuoteSadly, the full film isn't on yt. That's a bloody long trailer.

Try it under its alternate title, Warriors of the Wasteland.

Absolutely, a masterpiece of trailer making. Unfortunately, it's better than the film itself and actually provides me everything I needed from a Superman origin story.

I actually might even prefer Trailer 5 though which encapsulates the origin and then spends the rest of the time just kicking an astonishing amount of ass:

That music breakdown at the end... fucking goosebumps on goosebumps.

The voice who asks him to think about 2 questions sounds like Robert Popper.

Holy shit, this film is bonkers. The reveal of what the Templars are up to is pretty jaw-dropping, but it's nothing compared to the ending. Everyone ought to watch it immediately, you (probably) won't regret it.

SteveDave

Thanks to this thread I've just seen Oldboy. Hoopla!

Did you like it?

SteveDave

Yes. I'm interested now to see what changes they've made for the US version.

Also I've just seen this trailer

Favourite this year so far has to be the first Red Band for Only God Forgives - it's the music I think:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FAgirTtfobk

"Wanna fight?"

Queneau

The Third Man is easily one of my favourite films. Stylishly made and very well scripted. However, the trailer makes it barely recognisable: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2wlKhPtq5J8

'Nothing is too good for The Third Man.' What?

Gummo - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gtY_545-ST8

Agreed! I still think about that trailer. I like Gummo but I'd possibly say that trailer's even better. Just the mood and sound-design it gives off.
It's its own thing; beautiful.

The more I think about Con Air, the more I doubt that Cameron Poe would have been charged, much less convicted or imprisoned, for that incident at the beginning. Deadly weapon or no (and you'd think they'd have found the damn knife), two blokes were trying to kill his wife. With him being a decorated war hero too, I just don't see it happening.

Still, it's one of my favourite films ever.

Another intriguing Korine trailer:

Makes me want to check it out anyway (not done so yet).

Don't. I absolutely hated the thing. I bought if over Bleep and felt absolutely cheated. Couldn't even finish it.
Just felt almost like a parody of an art-student film. That trailer is representative of the final product in that there's no through line. Just improvised shit, where people go about smashing up TVs and humping bins, dressed up like old people. That's it for a full film. Just bits and pieces of random self-indulgent wank. Kids hitting dolls with hammers. People smashing TVS and kicking shit about. That's about it.
I FLIPPIN' hated it, so much.

The only redeemable quality is that it was all shot on VHS, and has a certain low-fi beauty to some of the cinematography. You don't see many films ever shot on VHS, really. Definitely had a good look to parts. Not enough to pay for. Then again, perhaps I'm not quite as much a fan of Korine. If you enjoyed the trailer, and feel like that kind of thing could hold your attention for a full hour and a half, then go for it. But I don't know many other people who saw that film, so I don't know what the consensus is. Maybe other people liked it, in which case, give it a go.

It's not amazing in the good sense but wow

created to win Oscars with John Cusack as Richard Nixon & Oprah Winfrey as the black Danielle Ward.

Why is everyone but him doing a Welsh voice. Even Pavarotti's giving it a go.

Smoking Aces had a couple of really great trailers, that one is awfully low quality unfortunately.  There was another one featuring a lot of Alesha Keys but I can't seem to find it.

Let's also not forget the first Kill Bill trailer

Your mind.

It is the centre of your life.

It is everything you hear. Everything you see. Everything you feel.

It is everything you are.

How would you know, if someone stole your mind?

The "from the makers of" bit at the beginning would only be of use to people who liked both romcoms and empty violence-drenched sub-Tarantino bollocks, but I liked it. "You like Love Actually? Then you'll fucking go berzerk for this!"

This is probably my favourite trailer of all time. Although the Braindead one linked above comes close.

"Mr Allen? Is that your new movie you're working on?"
"This? No."

The original trailer for Alien - excellent build-up, great use of sound, captures the atmosphere, terror and urgency of the film without giving away too much or too little:

God. I remember this trailer from 1979, seeing  it in a cinema (did they not have feature-certification-appropriate trailers in those days? I'm guessing not. I was 9). No idea what I had gone to see (Moonraker?), but that series of cuts back to Ripley running through the ship stuck with me for ages after.

Surprised no one has mentioned this:

Amazing trailer, film delivers on all those images and then some.

When I was seeing Filth the other day, I saw this trailer for Carrie. It starts off as you'd expect but that last minute of the trailer is just really bloody good, with the use of that track slowly going wrong.

Also, the Godzilla one released today. I can't say I'm jumping at a Godzilla film personally, but this is a surprisingly quiet and compelling little trailer for what's likely going to be a fairly bombastic blockbuster. I also really like the billowing dust from the destroyed buildings covering him in that final shot, because if this is going to be played as something tense and horrific, it'd be best to keep as much as the monster in your imagination.
Which is tricky, since Godzilla's an astonishingly massive reptile monster.
If there's always that dust of destroyed buildings around, it could be incredibly claustrophobic and tense, like he could pop out at any moment despite the comical nature of his size.
