The 23 Best Movie Trailers of All Time
As backwards as it may seem to cut corners on the CGI until your blockbuster looks more like a video game from 2004 in favor of incessant pop-up ads, it makes sense that so much of a film’s budget goes toward marketing. After all, not even the best movie in the world has the power to Inception itself into the heads of viewers. For one thing, it’s gonna need a sick-ass trailer (which, incidentally, Inception totally had).
In fact, some trailers are so good, they qualify as entertainment all on their own — and might actually be better than the movie. As a result, it’s no surprise that when r/AskReddit was asked to answer the question, “What are some of your all-time favorite movie trailers? Which ones really got you amped to see a movie, no matter if that movie met expectations or not?,” Reddit remembered the ads that worked all-too-well on them.
