Trailers

[novella]

What I think every time I see a trailer is, So this is the demographic they think I'm in. Sometimes they make me want to not watch the movie I'm about to watch. If all the trailers are for stupid, crass movies, then I anticipate that the movie I'm about to watch will similarly suck.

I hate trailers. Usually I fastforward through them or skip over them. They depress me because--as someone said earlier--they usually excerpt the 'best' scenes from a movie and so you immediately know how bad it's going to be.

'Don't cry for me Argentina' Like that.

Now you come to mention it, that's happen with me quite a few times, especially if it's a psychological thriller or a horror & all the trailers are growly voice man or the "we're only going to show loads of clips of people only partially dressed, because there is no plot or story" ones.

God, snl alumni - what the hell is so funny about Will fucking Ferrell!?

I liked him in Zoolander and Jay & Silent Bob, but otherwise I think he is seriously overrated.

 

[Martin]

He hasn't made me chuckle even once. Ever.

Cheers

In the two films I mentioned it was more down to the scipt then him personally, but then I do absolutely adore Zoolander & anyone could have been Mugatu & I would still have laughed

quentin tarantino and robert rodriguez are collaborating on a film called GRIND HOUSE, which will be two separate hour-long featurettes playing back-to-back, with other directors doing grindhouse-style trailors for made up movies before and in between the film.
