I know there are some who do NOT like to sit through the previews of movies when they go out to watch films. I get that. I even understand the logic. But it's not me. I LOVE TRAILERS. Movie trailers. Good ones and bad ones.
Why? Dunno! And I don't even WATCH 1/3 of the movies of the trailers/previews I see. One reason this podcast about holiday movie previews was so long was because both Eric and I appreciate a well done and entertaining trailer. We like watching them, and talking about them.
We discussed a little about what makes good trailers and what makes bad ones. Even in 2017, there are still producers who don't know how to get a good trailer made. But this got me thinking...this comparing of good vs. badly made movie previews. And I started remembering the ones from back in the day that really hit the mark.
So, below are some examples of "old school" trailers...AND, a great way to waste time. Enjoy!
They run the gamut. And these are just a few, but I could watch these all day...a rabbit hole I would never come back from.
So, what are you going to see this holiday season? Do you base it on previews? Or do you hate the waste of time these little 3 min vignettes are?
Wherever you stand, you have to admit, the trailer is an art form unto itself.
Happy Movie Going!
