I'll be looking forward to seeing if somebody might post any somewhat decent ads from more recent years. The newer ones seem to just spoil the entire plot and all of the jokes to the degree that you hardly have to watch the film after watching the preview. Or maybe it's just more to do with not understanding or appreciating good ones when I was younger.

I feel like all the best trailers I've seen in the past ten years are for games. At least there are some editors in that industry who still try new things or take some risks. It's so rare to see that in film.

i preferred movie trailers pre-inception bwong

although some directors haven't followed suit with the capeshit trailer formulas. whoever JJ hires to make his trailers does a really good job

but let's start with my favorites

Yo dawg, for somebody who isn't much knowledgeable in the way of trailers, would you care to elaborate on... every bit of that?

basically ever since the trailer for inception you will hear some variation of these sounds

along with other miscellaneous hits/risers/pitch drops/etc

peppered around ramped up music and frantically cut action scenes. capeshit = superhero movies, the driving force of major blockbusters and consequently the driving force of this trailer formula

there is a popular and predictable sequence for the modern hollywood movie trailer

bonus points: give away the entire plot in your trailer

Unless

Heh, right. I didn't quite get what you mean, but I totally get what you mean.

Also, perhaps it's worth considering that this is a Prothean warning and none of us are paying heed.

I was unsurprisingly late to adopting DVD (like 2007 or something) but I remember a lot of good VHS anime trailers/PVs.

This one sticks out as the first thing that made we want to see all the anime.

I still own about half of these on VHS. I should invest in a lead bunker to protect them from the next solar flare which will inevitably render them unwatchable.

AGWHAAN was snorecore but that looks decent I guess.

^Not a masterpiece like Memories of Murder or The Host but worth watching for the photography and Gyllenhaal's/Swinton's performances. Fucking nails corporatism.

Season 2 of Stranger things trailer. The whole show itself is really good

i would like to see some self-contained stories instead of a season-long one, only because i think the biggest problem with the first is that it couldn't deliver a solid ending after a lot of buildup. the journey there was really good, i just didn't care for the finale very much.
