Is this the greatest movie trailer ever made?

I mean, that one guy just fucking explodes.
Don't bother watching the movie. The trailer has all of the good stuff. The rest just gets in the way.
I also really like the Grindhouse trailer, if only for its narrator.

Nah. The movie trailer voice over guy was dead long before Inception. Also The Matrix did a lot of that way before Inception.
malick + lubezki = godtier visuals
literally my favourite movie of all time
Nick Cave and Warren Ellis' soundtrack work is dope as hell
M83 was used so damn well here, definitely one of my favs.
and i also love the film itself
I can't count how many times I've watched this trailer. There was a time I'd watch it everyday.
Absolutely terrible trailer. Saw this in the theaters and I'm so glad I went in blind.
These are two of my favorite trailers for modern-ish movies. I could go on forever as I love trailer talk.
I hadn't seen that one before. It's surprisingly good considering how most trailers was put together in the seventies.
It's gotta be Cloverfield.
Everyone went a bit crazy on theories and ARG-ing after this got dropped. Nobody knew what it was - really even what it was called. The fact that it was attached to Transformers really helped. People were talking about this almost as much as the feature presentation.

Speaking of Cloverfield, the Star Trek teaser attached to that gave me goosebumps.
Yesssssssss!!! The whole theater went crazy when we heard "Space" Lol
The first trailer was way better.
It didn't give away too much, focused purely on the beginning and the music Evey Reborn fitted in beautifully.
I love this trailer as well. One of the things I feel Peter Jackson does so well is that the world he builds is completely immersive which was apparent with this trailer but at a huge scale never seen before. I feel that not many films actually get this right in that some of them just feel artificial to me that I'm really unable to believe the world they're presenting. I hadn't read the books at the time and the scenes of Pelennor Fields and Speech by Aragon was real good concealment. The actual scene of Theoden was just as good.
Not mentioned yet but Silence had a great one I felt.
I remember watching this trailer at the cinema. In the end, it was like Metal Gear Solid V, I liked the final product but the trailers were so much better...
I remember the original one for The Matrix being fantastic. Haven't seen it since the film came out on DVD back at the end of '99 (I think). It gives you a rough overview of the film but without actually spoiling it (I'm look at you Terminator Genisys). I've tried looking for it but I haven't found it. It started off the shot of Trinity jumping over the rooftops and Neo going "Whoa" and then basically ends with the last 30 seconds being action shots with an electronic score and some sort of choir vocals.
It's funny how much trailers have changed over the years but yet you never realise it until you see one from a good 5+ years back or more. For example you never get voiceover man anymore and these days you get a pretty good idea of how the story is going to go because trailers are often put together narratively, with a few juicy FX shots thrown in as well.

Also - think I've mentioned this before - why have we started getting 5 seconds trailers for the trailer we're literally about to see?!
FB/Twitter autoplay shit. It's fucking annoying.
Not as bad as YT channel who stitch together a trailer and 5 clips so that it seems to be lasting 7 minutes though.
You get it on Youtube channels as well though, it's irritating as fook!
Yeah I agree on the second part. You see a 3:00 video that says "New trailer for 'X' " so you think "Cool" click play and you end up getting a seven second bit saying "New trailer this Friday" and the original teaser trailer tacked onto it!
Yeah cause the youtube channels upload the FB/twitter stuff.
And yeah it's always the same 2 channels that people use as a source here.
*internal screaming*
The (never-released) IMAX trailer for Interstellar, featuring JFK's iconic speech:
Someone on YouTube painstakingly re-edited it, and a guy from Nolan's production team even complimented him in the comments.
(GOAT is still the Cloud Atlas trailer, but this is my #2 GOAT)

Either this tasteful hodgepodge of clips:
Or John Williams' ESB and ROTJ scores being used to maximum possible effect:
They're both fucking great.
