All About Trailers

yes..the best trailer ive ever seen is "The Seeker-Dark is rising" its was so good i called up few of my friends to ccome out and watch that movie with me..ended up its so lousy..reminded me of earlier 60s BBC tv program,(no offence) about the trailer that shows everything ..dont really happen in Hollywood now..only in local trailers from some countries..usually asian..where there not much talented trailer editor..

Well, trailers do give me the excitement to watch the movie in full length. So far, i have watched trailers, movies of which i have also watched full length and i am satisfied. like for example, the trailer of the soap i am watching would really excite me to watch it the next day and it proves to be that what i thought of its outcome is not as what it will actually show, and i feel happy of the twist it gives. At least, the plot of the story is something not predictable.

We have a service in the US that allows you to rent Blu-Ray and DVD dics... on Blu-Ray discs, there is so much room that there are what they call extended trailers... some of these can go on for ten minutes. When my wife and I finally sit down to watch a movie, we both have thought we'd already saw it. In a drama, the best parts are already shown. In a comedy, the funny parts are already shown. In a thriller, you know when the scary part is coming because they will show what leads up to it and then cut off right before the scary part. I try to skip trailers when I can, but I also use them to determine which movies I am going to watch or not. So it is hard to say I love them and hard to say I hate them. Thanks. Zelo

It is so annoying when a trailer basically misrepresents a movie either making it out to be something which it isn’t or is basically all the best bits. I remember watching the trailer for “You, Me and Dupree” and thinking it looked like a really good comedy but the movie was actually not that funny with the trailer having cherry picked all the funniest moments. And then there was the trailer for “Marley & Me” which made it look like it was a romantic comedy where in truth the movie was about the emotional connection between a man and his dog. Still a brilliant movie but so many people went to see it thinking it would be a romantic comedy and were disappointed. Despite this I still watch trailers and have watched some really good movies off of the back of a trailer which otherwise I probably wouldn’t have ever seen, such movies as “Shadows in the Sun” and “Under the Tuscan Sun” spring to mind. It’s just a case that you can’t go on what a trailer shows you as being accurate and you have to read reviews to get a real idea of what a movie will about.

I love trailers but I hate their spoilers. Most of the times when you watch a trailer, the maker of the trailer has to make sure to get the attention of many. Therefore, he/she has to take scenes which are the highlights of the movie. If you already watched the trailer of Harry Potter: The Deathly Hollows part 2, you could see the obvious highlights of the movies. This is why many people are waiting for it to be released in theaters because they are curios of what is going to be next. That is the power of trailers.

i watched trailer on the youtube. then afterwards, i search them on the net and read their reviews from different movie critics!thats why, i got idea on the movies!:)
