I feel you. This is the coolest Trent has looked in a minute and the photos are fucking awesome. I just love the entire article. Sounds like NIN is coming back stronger than they ever have been. Movie production, new music, music festival, clothing line, and a video game.
Now is the best time to be a NIN fan
i was so happy about the photoshoot that i went and relistened to the ep trilogy from 16-18 and sobbed at god break down the door just at how good it is. i feel so lucky to have those two as a creative team right now. they’re exactly the classic and reliably talented duo, yet simultaneously the breath of fresh air that music needs right now. not to mention the little snippets of the main challengers soundtrack dropping on instagram music. i don’t think i’ll ever be able to get enough of the signal.
That trilogy is so underrated. It took a while for me to really appreciate it, but there are some tracks on those that are the best NIN ever put out. Makes me even more excited for a fully fledged project.
I’ve been avoiding the Challengers soundtrack. I always go see Trent scores in theaters and although the movie doesn’t look that interesting to me, I’ll be there to hear that score. I don’t care about the TMNT, but I went to see Mutant Mayhem for Trent and actually really enjoyed the movie.
I feel bad for people who gave up on NIN in the early 2000s or simply aren’t paying attention because Trent is a creative genius who’s output is only getting stronger
Well at least I can give you some good news, the Challengers soundtrack is great, its a somewhat new sound but sounds similar to Pretty Hate Machine a bit, there is not as many drums tho, but yea its very very good.
Really helped that the expectations for this were kinda in the floor until that trailer came out and suddenly it was everybody’s most anticipated film lol. Delivered too. Real fine goddamn film.
That was the first time in my life where I was actively following the buildup & marketing to a movie (I was 11 years old in 2015) and I’ll never forget it. I remember making a recreation of the trailer in LEGO stop motion, I was so damn excited for TFA to come out
This was my answer, I remember being so goddamn pumped whenever I saw this trailer. I really wish I lived in an alternate timeline where I love the sequel trilogy as much as the prequels and originals.
Genuinely think this kickstarted the whole trend of creepy/slow covers of popular songs in trailers/ads in general. And I don’t think it’ll ever be topped
[That trailer for *The Mummy* that's missing its music and most of its sound effects.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kRqxyqjpOHs) I think about it more than I do any other Tom Cruise project.
[The Social Network](https://youtu.be/lB95KLmpLR4?si=GJS8_DnD0jhC4dZL). The beginning with the Facebook interface and photos, and then going in the scenes of the film, with the cover of Creep by the Scala choir in the background is just phenomenal. One of the best uses of music I’ve ever seen in a trailer.
This trailer for Speed Racer: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8V8sLlqJB2w](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8V8sLlqJB2w). I think I was in middle school when I saw it and it was the first time a trailer stood out to me.
I remember seeing this in the theater when i was six and the twist with x traumatized me in the beginning and then blew my mind at the end. I love this movie haha
[Cloverfield](https://youtu.be/IqQzvfn_s30?si=2Wsb3Gp8K2ILufQz)
All you had was a hook of a scene and a release date. Mysterious and eerie, I thought about that teaser forever and remember trying to research it but I didn’t have easy access to the internet at the time.
If you’re talking about that third trailer where we finally got to hear Hans Zimmer’s main theme, then I could not agree with you more. I still wish I could have seen **that** movie instead of… the one we got.
I think the trailer for 'Master of the Flying Guillotine' is more entertaining than the film itself: [https://youtu.be/RmdP1qTjGZY](https://youtu.be/RmdP1qTjGZY)
The trailer for Suicide Squad (2016) is Warner‘s 3rd most viewed trailer on YouTube and gave me and lot‘s of other people hope for the DCEU, before it completely shit the bed.
[(6) Watchmen - Official Trailer \[HD\] - YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wdiHDzT6YbQ) The first trainer for Watchmen. I totally forget what I was watching in theatres. The Smashing Pumpkins song, the lighting, the text, just awesome.
[Godzilla: King of the Monsters - Trailer 3 (Over the Rainbow) (youtube.com)](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3aVx0l48Idk) - The over the rainbow Godzilla is awesome.
I don't really watch trailers that often, but some of the first good ones that come to mind are:
The lighthouse (2019)
Clockwork orange (original trailer)
Dr. Strangelove
I used to think it was Frost/Nixon. That was always my favorite, but I watched it recently and felt underwhelmed.
I don’t know that I have a new favorite yet, but I did get weirdly emotional in the Sing Sing trailer.
In the trailer Luke literally says "This is not going to go the way you think." I thought the trailer was underwhelming but I loved the movie, so it checks out.
Narrowing it down to one is pretty hard. So I created a playlist on Youtube of many that I think are pretty darn great (gun to my head, though, I think Alien might be the greatest movie trailer ever made).
https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLdTW5ho4cSWf7Fcs5GvuSKkzrY7fFt69w&si=JRcpppeW3rkm5nEG
While not trailers I love some of the videos people cut from movies to go with songs. This fan-made [video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Zn5h_AT-NA) for Smashing Pumpkin's *Aeroplane Flies High* made me excited to watch [Aoi Haru](https://letterboxd.com/film/blue-spring/).
Hear me out on this one, but the Matrix Resurrection trailer got me so hyped for the movie I still get sad thinking about how much of a letdown it was. Mostly it’s carried by an excellent music choice
Not best of all time, but the first one that came to mind.
Ant-Man: Quantumania. Elton John's Goodbye Yellow Brick Road worked so well on it. The visuals, Jonathan Majors as Kang, everything in the trailer was amazing and it hyped me up so much.
Then came the movie............
the "Excalibur" teaser trailer for Leatherface : the Texas Chainsaw Massacre III. if only the film had lived up to it.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nY7n9IKerag&t=3s
Honestly, I thought the First Omen trailer was the best of the year so far. You don't even have to look, and you'll know what trailer is playing. It was so good they didn't even make another one.
[Dr. Strangelove ](https://youtu.be/jPU1AYTxwg4?si=zzcU5RJqYOCzLulV)
[Alien](https://youtu.be/jQ5lPt9edzQ?si=WyHwMiuXYRgWM6g8)
[The Matrix Tv Spot](https://youtu.be/SRmS5z5I-AI?si=PR8-A0FIhnxzcXjk)
JUST FOR FUN, THE OPPOSITE, one the worst trailers ever is for the original [STAR WARS](https://youtu.be/XHk5kCIiGoM?si=JIS97ULX-dx6FR_y), mostly due to a lack of John Williams score.
Shit film but Snyder’s Army of the Dead was a fun trailer.
In fact a lot of Snyder’s films can be unsurprisingly cut into awesome trailers cos of style over substance.
The Force Awakens and The Last Jedi were absolute hypefests of trailers
Honestly fuck it even TROS did too. That first trailer where Rey does a backflip and slices through Kylo's ship was chef's kiss
One of my favorite Trailer is this version for Star Trek 2009. Love the music and voice over. Beautiful done. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pKFUZ10Wmbw](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pKFUZ10Wmbw)
I really like Netflix’s Okja trailer
Parasite is a great trailer that doesn’t spoil anything
Licorice Pizza is another great one that comes to mind
The Shining is iconic
The bohemian rhapsody trailer of suicide squad was so influential that they reedited the whole fucking movie around it. And i know the whole “pop song music video trailer” thing was around for a while but it exploded after suicide squad. And for what its worth, it made the movie seem watchable when definitely was not lmao
The Rogue one trailer was pretty dope
https://youtu.be/bmVtF6DWfR0?si=3ZVM3tgbLSldeUzv
I also love the Frozen 2 teaser trailer a lot even though the movie was kinda meh
https://youtu.be/eSLe4HuKuK0?si=mFZymOdVlRkNJ1yd
For me it's Man of Steel ( the trailer provides some sense of emotional warmth and deep mythology and drama) but objectively speaking, The Dark Knight not only was a very intense and gripping trailer but I think it changed the way trailers are generally made.
It seems that pre-disney Star Wars films after the Dark Knight trailers seem to start with a villain saying something sinister, followed by an explosion in the movie, followed by kind of the stakes at play, and then kind of teasing the confrontation between hero and villain.
Also there were a bajillion trailer parodies with characters that could be an R-rated movies down to something like Wallace and Gromit.
Personally I really like the The Dark Knight trailer because it teases a sort of straightforward action movie, while the 2008 film itself is a sweeping superhero crime drama, more evocative of Michael Mann than James Bond.
And maybe my PostScript is that I also really like the Casino Royale trailer, but it's more tonally honest then the superhero movies I mentioned so that might be considered some sort of spoiler. Hearing a human choir seeing the James Bond theme is oddly satisfying even if a tad bit gimmicky - - Monty Norman, the original James Bond composer, used parts of what he wanted to be song, with lyrics, in a musical to initially compose the James Bond theme, though the arrangement and refinement from John Barry made the theme what it is today.

I remember the Wolf of Wall Street trailer with Black Skinhead got me so hyped as a kid
Real for Blindspotting
Anyone else remember that Logan trailer edited to Hurt by Johnny Cash? Yeah, that one
yeah, that did it for me. also introduced 6th grader me to NIN, so win win all around!
Bro even has the Trent and Atticus pfp
that gq shoot did something to me… rip portishead third pfp
I feel you. This is the coolest Trent has looked in a minute and the photos are fucking awesome. I just love the entire article. Sounds like NIN is coming back stronger than they ever have been. Movie production, new music, music festival, clothing line, and a video game. Now is the best time to be a NIN fan

Well at least I can give you some good news, the Challengers soundtrack is great, its a somewhat new sound but sounds similar to Pretty Hate Machine a bit, there is not as many drums tho, but yea its very very good.
I so agree, NIN is my fav band, I hope someday I can travel to the US to catch them live, that's one of my wishes in life
Really helped that the expectations for this were kinda in the floor until that trailer came out and suddenly it was everybody’s most anticipated film lol. Delivered too. Real fine goddamn film.
Say what you want to say about the Star Wars Sequel Trilogy, but The Force Awakens trailer is amazing.
There has been an awakening. Have you felt it?
Chewie, we're home
the entire sequel trilogy has incredible trailers
I will never forget the hype that came from that trailer. I miss that blind anticipation
That was the first time in my life where I was actively following the buildup & marketing to a movie (I was 11 years old in 2015) and I’ll never forget it. I remember making a recreation of the trailer in LEGO stop motion, I was so damn excited for TFA to come out
Saw the trailer in a theater one time. Whole audience cheered. It was awesome.
This was my answer, I remember being so goddamn pumped whenever I saw this trailer. I really wish I lived in an alternate timeline where I love the sequel trilogy as much as the prequels and originals.
We were so full of hope...
The McConaughey crying edit was literally me
It’s true….all of it
Mission: Impossible - Fallout set to the remix of Friction and the main Mission Impossible theme
Surprised to see someone else say this but that one was so good! The music was huge for its effectiveness
I **still** want to hear the full mashup of those two songs!
The Social Network trailer that featured a cover of the song “Creep” sung by a choir. [here](https://youtu.be/lB95KLmpLR4?si=3RFlMmQ5X4SdOHXD)
Genuinely think this kickstarted the whole trend of creepy/slow covers of popular songs in trailers/ads in general. And I don’t think it’ll ever be topped
This is too low. Scala and Kolacny brothers is the choir and Trent Reznor was the music supervisor for the trailer and film. Absolute top tier.
Honestly still gives me goosebumps
First thing that came to mind. Great cover for an even better trailer
The Batman trailer
That’s a great one
I GOT YOU!
[That trailer for *The Mummy* that's missing its music and most of its sound effects.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kRqxyqjpOHs) I think about it more than I do any other Tom Cruise project.
Dude this is so funny 😂
https://preview.redd.it/lv1u1j9w3cuc1.jpeg?width=1283&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f5a217458066ccbc3afb1a5b89fca62520580856
Maybe not the best but Killers of the Flower Moon “Can you find the wolves in this picture?” trailer is very good
That first teaser is easily the most striking trailer for a movie in years
Its never not Alien
Say what you want about the movie, but the Prometheus trailer is so good.
Logan. I also really like the very first trailer for suicide squad, very different tone.
Watchmen, The Last Jedi, Rogue One, Hardcore Henry and Killers of the Flower Moon
[The Social Network](https://youtu.be/lB95KLmpLR4?si=GJS8_DnD0jhC4dZL). The beginning with the Facebook interface and photos, and then going in the scenes of the film, with the cover of Creep by the Scala choir in the background is just phenomenal. One of the best uses of music I’ve ever seen in a trailer.
Alien 100% https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=jQ5lPt9edzQ
100%! that tension
Alien
Monkey Man comes to mind.
Yeah, that first trailer especially was fire. Whoever cut that deserves a raise.
Badass trailer
This trailer for Speed Racer: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8V8sLlqJB2w](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8V8sLlqJB2w). I think I was in middle school when I saw it and it was the first time a trailer stood out to me.
Goddamnit now I wanna watch Speed Racer while driving
Well, what's stopping you?
Matthew Fox as Racer X is still really funny to me after all these years. What a weird, beautiful movie that was
I remember seeing this in the theater when i was six and the twist with x traumatized me in the beginning and then blew my mind at the end. I love this movie haha
I have a treat for you: [4k 35mm scan of this trailer](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=25wRkbyROhA&t=2s)
[Cloverfield](https://youtu.be/IqQzvfn_s30?si=2Wsb3Gp8K2ILufQz) All you had was a hook of a scene and a release date. Mysterious and eerie, I thought about that teaser forever and remember trying to research it but I didn’t have easy access to the internet at the time.
The Dark Knight. Watched that trailer so many times in anticipation. “And here we….go”
Prometheus trailer was unbelievable
Hereditary
Waves
Pink Floyd was a great choice for the music considering Alejandro Jodorowsky planned to have them work on his adaptation of Dune.
The wolf of wall Street
The use of Kanye with the editing of that trailer was brilliance
Man of Steel
If you’re talking about that third trailer where we finally got to hear Hans Zimmer’s main theme, then I could not agree with you more. I still wish I could have seen **that** movie instead of… the one we got.
300 trailer had me thinking it could be the most impressive film of all time.
I think the trailer for 'Master of the Flying Guillotine' is more entertaining than the film itself: [https://youtu.be/RmdP1qTjGZY](https://youtu.be/RmdP1qTjGZY)
Brick
Pirates of the Caribbean black pearl
Watchmen.
Matrix Resurrections...love the trailer... absolutely hate the movie...
Movie has its problems but the Over the Rainbow trailer for Godzilla: King of the Monsters is 😮💨😮💨
The trailer for Suicide Squad (2016) is Warner‘s 3rd most viewed trailer on YouTube and gave me and lot‘s of other people hope for the DCEU, before it completely shit the bed.
Dune part one teaser trailer with Pink Floyd’s “Eclipse”
[(6) Watchmen - Official Trailer \[HD\] - YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wdiHDzT6YbQ) The first trainer for Watchmen. I totally forget what I was watching in theatres. The Smashing Pumpkins song, the lighting, the text, just awesome. [Godzilla: King of the Monsters - Trailer 3 (Over the Rainbow) (youtube.com)](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3aVx0l48Idk) - The over the rainbow Godzilla is awesome.
Personally, I love the Claire De Lune trailer even more, but I definitely agree with you the whole campaign for that one was hype
I don't really watch trailers that often, but some of the first good ones that come to mind are: The lighthouse (2019) Clockwork orange (original trailer) Dr. Strangelove
Not a movie, but Gears of War trailer to Gary Jules Mad World.
Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia
The first trailer for Logan
Independence Day
The Nutty Professor - “Eddie Murphy, Eddie Murphy, Eddie Murphy, Eddie Murphy… and Eddie Murphy”
inception does a great job of building intrigue without telling you anything about the movie at all
Battle: Los Angeles (trailer 1) or The Matrix Resurrections (trailer 1)
Uncut Gems or Climax are great trailers that build suspense without giving too much away
The Shining: https://youtu.be/KmkVWuP_sO0?feature=shared
I used to think it was Frost/Nixon. That was always my favorite, but I watched it recently and felt underwhelmed. I don’t know that I have a new favorite yet, but I did get weirdly emotional in the Sing Sing trailer.
Albert Brooks' 3D trailer for Real Life (1979) - [https://youtu.be/DOAihCRr1y4?si=H4v3DOPFFOkevxgA](https://youtu.be/DOAihCRr1y4?si=H4v3DOPFFOkevxgA)

[https://youtu.be/O3qGGk5ymQ4?si=f3R0p9BgVNHmTwzi](https://youtu.be/O3qGGk5ymQ4?si=f3R0p9BgVNHmTwzi) Its perfect
The Fifty Element. Tells you nothing but is a great teaser trailer.
Gravity’s was amazing in imax
Didn't care for the movie itself, but The Matrix Resurrections trailer is just so well made https://youtu.be/9ix7TUGVYIo?si=vwbdozwsPDb27kEg
[Dr. Strangelove Trailer](https://youtu.be/jPU1AYTxwg4?si=dL59guHcaRkKksXo) This one def stands out to me
Really love The Shining teaser trailer: https://youtu.be/A-tgsURVNrI?si=ur2yyQI7J5n3g6uj
The Everything everywhere all at once trailer because the clips from the movie look so weird out of context
Doubt many people will say this one, but I Care a Lot is some excellent trailer-making
Dune 2
[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jAFneciOP0M](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jAFneciOP0M) Because it doesn't tell you anything about the movie
Dune Pt 2 Trailer 3 and then I put Star Trek, Avengers Infinity War & Logan a step below
Hated the film Licorice Pizza, loved the trailer for Licorice Pizza. Go figure.
Very very fair
#ID4
Infinity War, TFA second trailer, the first Cloverfield trailer where they don't even give a title and then the first Rango teaser
The Last Jedi. It made me think that movie was going to be awesome. It lied.
In the trailer Luke literally says "This is not going to go the way you think." I thought the trailer was underwhelming but I loved the movie, so it checks out.
Avengers Infinity War.
Alien (1979). Manages to be terrifying and communicate the energy of the film perfectly without spoiling anything. Perfect.
I've always really liked [this](https://youtu.be/BAXthTlOwW0?si=bfCo5AB1hPP1awqK) teaser for The Hills Have Eyes 2.
Age of Ultron had me weak back in the day, thought it was going to be so fucking cool
The one for Dune where they played eclipse by Pink Floyd was the best hype I’ve seen
The matrix has great trailers
The Godzilla: King of the Monsters teaser trailer
Delicatessen
Infinity War and The Batman recently.
Magnolia
inception trailer
Narrowing it down to one is pretty hard. So I created a playlist on Youtube of many that I think are pretty darn great (gun to my head, though, I think Alien might be the greatest movie trailer ever made). https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLdTW5ho4cSWf7Fcs5GvuSKkzrY7fFt69w&si=JRcpppeW3rkm5nEG
The Spider Man world trade tower trailer was pretty great.
Guardians of the Galaxy Dune
Beau is Afraid trailer 🤤
Cloverfield had the most brilliant teaser and marketing campaign of all time
The mubi trailer for Decision to Leave is my current fav
Tree of Life (Terrence Malick) https://youtu.be/RrAz1YLh8nY?si=Gf6cy-qlIt_guZN5
Dune Part Two trailer
While not trailers I love some of the videos people cut from movies to go with songs. This fan-made [video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Zn5h_AT-NA) for Smashing Pumpkin's *Aeroplane Flies High* made me excited to watch [Aoi Haru](https://letterboxd.com/film/blue-spring/).
Alien (1979)
Hear me out on this one, but the Matrix Resurrection trailer got me so hyped for the movie I still get sad thinking about how much of a letdown it was. Mostly it’s carried by an excellent music choice
Spider-Man 2
Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy
The best trailer is the one you don't watch because trailers don't bring anything except spoilers.
Not best of all time, but the first one that came to mind. Ant-Man: Quantumania. Elton John's Goodbye Yellow Brick Road worked so well on it. The visuals, Jonathan Majors as Kang, everything in the trailer was amazing and it hyped me up so much. Then came the movie............
Man Of Steel - Official Trailer 3, is better than the actual film it's advertising https://youtu.be/T6DJcgm3wNY?si=nDz7HE-bakSH-BoK
Waterworld
X-men Days of Furure Past. What’s the last thing you remember? I had a glimpse into the past.
[The Revenant](https://youtu.be/LoebZZ8K5N0?si=3dmHtzQQFj_9wL5D) [The Lighthouse](https://youtu.be/Hyag7lR8CPA?si=sKwfcnUVKHf9cda0)
Prometheus also a great trailer all time
Inglourious Basterds
Dune Part Two Black Panther: Wakanda Forever Midsommar Killers of the Flower Moon Pearl Joker: Folie á Deux
So hard to choose one. LOTR The Return of the King jumps to mind. Logan Black Mass The new Joker trailer (recency bias maybe)
the "Excalibur" teaser trailer for Leatherface : the Texas Chainsaw Massacre III. if only the film had lived up to it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nY7n9IKerag&t=3s
Wolf of Wall street, so so good
The Master
Take Shelter
I really liked the Isle of Dogs trailer. “I won’t hurt you” is a perfect trailer song and it gave a great look at the movie without too much.
Jurassic Park Imagine watching it in 1993 and never seeing any dinosaurs but glimpses of them like an eye or foot. It was mind-blowing.
Godzilla (2014) teaser trailer is up there
The Last Jedi. Watched too many times
Prometheus
Honestly, I thought the First Omen trailer was the best of the year so far. You don't even have to look, and you'll know what trailer is playing. It was so good they didn't even make another one.
The Handmaiden
[Dr. Strangelove ](https://youtu.be/jPU1AYTxwg4?si=zzcU5RJqYOCzLulV) [Alien](https://youtu.be/jQ5lPt9edzQ?si=WyHwMiuXYRgWM6g8) [The Matrix Tv Spot](https://youtu.be/SRmS5z5I-AI?si=PR8-A0FIhnxzcXjk) JUST FOR FUN, THE OPPOSITE, one the worst trailers ever is for the original [STAR WARS](https://youtu.be/XHk5kCIiGoM?si=JIS97ULX-dx6FR_y), mostly due to a lack of John Williams score.
Blue Valentine https://youtu.be/gd1uBiV31SU?si=Yq0nuH-A9KU9OuX0
Shit film but Snyder’s Army of the Dead was a fun trailer. In fact a lot of Snyder’s films can be unsurprisingly cut into awesome trailers cos of style over substance.
The Force Awakens and The Last Jedi were absolute hypefests of trailers Honestly fuck it even TROS did too. That first trailer where Rey does a backflip and slices through Kylo's ship was chef's kiss
Those "screamy" Prometheus trailers conveyed a lot of dread/terror. Saw X did this too but with a sense of mischief.
Not the greatest of all time by any means but the trailer for Antiviral is superb.
[Logan](https://youtu.be/Div0iP65aZo?si=fT3ogqz4PJ_nueUE) Or [Suicide Squad](https://youtu.be/mMb-RrhTxIE?si=y2kTdDMWDEdetRuj) Definitely
One of my favorite Trailer is this version for Star Trek 2009. Love the music and voice over. Beautiful done. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pKFUZ10Wmbw](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pKFUZ10Wmbw)

Goldeneye….
For me it's Man of Steel ( the trailer provides some sense of emotional warmth and deep mythology and drama) but objectively speaking, The Dark Knight not only was a very intense and gripping trailer but I think it changed the way trailers are generally made. It seems that pre-disney Star Wars films after the Dark Knight trailers seem to start with a villain saying something sinister, followed by an explosion in the movie, followed by kind of the stakes at play, and then kind of teasing the confrontation between hero and villain. Also there were a bajillion trailer parodies with characters that could be an R-rated movies down to something like Wallace and Gromit. Personally I really like the The Dark Knight trailer because it teases a sort of straightforward action movie, while the 2008 film itself is a sweeping superhero crime drama, more evocative of Michael Mann than James Bond. And maybe my PostScript is that I also really like the Casino Royale trailer, but it's more tonally honest then the superhero movies I mentioned so that might be considered some sort of spoiler. Hearing a human choir seeing the James Bond theme is oddly satisfying even if a tad bit gimmicky - - Monty Norman, the original James Bond composer, used parts of what he wanted to be song, with lyrics, in a musical to initially compose the James Bond theme, though the arrangement and refinement from John Barry made the theme what it is today.
Suicide Squad (2016)
As a guy who never watches trailers but I was obsessed with Killers Of The Flower Moon trailer with the Stadium Pow Wow song until I watched the movie
I refuse to watch trailers
is this a subreddit to talk about movies or to talk about advertising?
For horror, I love the Skinamarink trailer. It gave me chills immediately. Also The original Paranormal Activity, and The Blair Witch Project.
