I love movie trailers and I feel it's been a while since I have seen a truly great one.
They help me to get excited about an upcoming movie, or remind me how amazing a movie was after the fact.
Here are some of my favorite trailers. Some trailers are often way better than the movies themselves (looking at you Phantom Menace/SW Special Edition) but these have all stuck with me.


Phantom Menace - remember going to see Waterboy (ugh) just to see this trailer. It was worth it!




Star Wars Special Edition




Godzilla - the trailer has about as much Godzilla in it as the movie




Man of Steel




Watchmen

These two came to mind for me. I only realised as I was making this post that they’re both Fincher films.

Star Wars: The Force Awakens announcement trailer was amazing:





300 trailer was fantastic:





The first trailer for the Matrix sequel(s) was incredible as well. So much hype:

The greatest movie trailer ever. And also one of the greatest movies.

Agreed. Great trailer. Shame the finished product didn't live up to expectations, although the directors cut was a lot better than the original release.
