10 Best Trailers of 2006

That is of movies that were released in 2006. Not trailers that were released in 2006. Just to clarify.

Top 10 Posters Coming Soon

#10
This is probably the only top 10 list you'll ever see this movie near. A perfect example of exactly how a watered down PG-13, crap remake should be marketed.

#9
Generating more laughs than any other trailer this year (and some say the film did the same thing), it holds some of the film's funnier moments out and briefly sets up the story and ends with a very funny scene.

#8
If only every high concept film could be sold as grim and elegantly as this one is. Love the Sigur Ros music!

#7
Watching this film, I realized why the latter trailers really goofed up on selling this: taking some scenes out of context can really give it a campy feel. Only this trailer showed the film for the epic, completely movie'd film it was.

#6
Boy, they really do know how to market horror remakes, don't they? Expertly cut, particular the way it showcases the film's most graphic moment (and probably the year's most disturbing movie scene) by not showing any violence whatsoever.

#5
Here's a beautiful pair! Both teaser and full trailer work excellently and give us that dreamy Coppola aura.

#4
Can you really make a great trailer and give everything in the movie away at the same time? You damn well can. Takes notes, studios. (Fuck you Ashley Judd and your Double Jeopardy!)

#3
A trailer for audiences to hate! Too bad audiences don't appreciate the craft behind a fine trailer and would most likely BOO at this hypnotic and mysterious gem.

#2
And the same goes for this one, which isn't really a trailer at all. An extended clip that still worked as a trailer and was put before many movies before the film's (very successful run), this is exactly how to sell a film without showing any footage after the product's first reel.

Trailer perfection! While the movie was as some put it "an unintentional black comedy", the trailer is sexy, sleek and dangerous recalling the type of Hollywood noir we just don't see much of anymore. That was the trailer. The film was something else entirely. And isn't that what marketing is all about?
