Jack Nevada Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 My favorite example of this is Where The Wild Things Are. The trailer had much more emotion and atmosphere than the film itself, which was just so-so 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webslinger Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CHtF8PADoN0Great trailer, but the movie left me very underwhelmed. By the end, I just did not like/care about the protagonist at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MagnetMan Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 My favorite example of this is Where The Wild Things Are. The trailer had much more emotion and atmosphere than the film itself, which was just so-soI had completely forgotten about that one!!! (which I guess is indicative of this entire phenomenon we're discussing, huh?)But it did have a great trailer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Nevada Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 The trailer for WTWTA had me so excited to see the movie.. which turned out to be boring, depressing and obvious Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webslinger Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 Agreed (somewhat) on the trailer for Where the Wild Things Are. The trailer was fantastic, while I thought the movie was "just" good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AniNate Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 (edited) Super 8 - trailer promised an intriguing mystery that didn't actually existLegend of the Guardians - breathtaking visuals, story gave me hope of a throwback to 80s Don Bluth-era animationAnd pretty much every Transformers movie is more interesting as a 2.5 minute sizzle reel than an actual movie Edited August 6, 2012 by tribefan695 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoursTruly Posted November 17, 2012 Share Posted November 17, 2012 Agreed about Super 8. The trailer was fantastic. I was expecting Spielbergian awe and wonder. Instead, we got a weird, uninvolving genre mash-up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Toymaker Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Aww, Prometheus was too character-driven and less explosions for you?
