Top 12 Recent Movie Trailers

Miss Potter

This is one of those instances where I like the trailer a lot more than I liked the movie. The movie was good, don’t get me wrong, but it didn’t live up to the version I’d built up in my head because of this trailer. That just goes to show you the power of a good trailer. I even bought the movie before I’d seen it, so sure that I would love it. Yet, I haven’t watched it a second time. One of the most important things about this trailer is probably the song at the end, which is one of my favorite songs of all time (you might remember it from the movie Love, Actually). It just builds up so that you have this great pressure in your chest, and all of the scenes with them running and hugging and her standing up to her mom… *happy sigh*

Music: Sometimes – Gabrielle (Not available on iTunes : Amazon)

  • Good stuff.
  • Well, these are all good, but you've missed a few amazing ones that at least made me go see their respective movies:

    Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow:

    the robots, the retro 50s feel with an alternate reality storyline, this trailer got lots of people anxious, but sadly, none of them went to go see the movie. I did though, it was good, better then the critics gave it anyway.

    V for Vendetta:

    That trailer was phenomenal, it gave the basic plot, and promised twists, conspericies, and explosions. I loved the movie, and the trailer.

    Cloverfield:

    Probably the one trailer that got the most people to go see the movie. This is in my opinion, a perfect trailer. NYC is under attack from something, and that's all you know. I have yet to see a trailer that was as perfectly suited for a movie that succeded to well.

    I saw all three of the movies i listed, but I only saw 5 of the ones you listed, and mostly not because of the trailers.

    I am curious though, which movies didn't live up to the trailers in your mind?
  • Ooh, V for Vendetta... Good one! That was a great movie, and had a great trailer as well!

    Unfortunately, both Miss Potter and Elizabeth: The Golden Age didn't live up to the trailers for me. I was so EXCITED about Elizabeth, too, probably because I enjoyed the first one so much, that it probably could never live up to the version I had in mind. Still a good movie, but sometimes I like to watch the trailer and think of what might have been.
