All-time GOAT Movie Trailers

Arts & Entertainment
1

Let’s get the nominations started. The only rule is that you must be able to post a YouTube copy of the trailer. I will also accept alternate versions of trailers for the same movie. For example, the final trailer for Man of Steel is perfection compared to the first one, but YMMV.

This is unique in that a trailer might be gdamn epic perfection even if the eventual movie kinda sucked. For example…

Star Wars: The Phantom Menace

Man of Steel

But then of course a great trailer often foreshadows a great film.

Alien

The Social Network

The Shining

Inception

LotR: the Two Towers

Spider-Man

Cloverfield

28 Days Later

Nominations open until the end of the weekend.

A truly amazing trailer, cranked up to 11 when the Requiem for a Tower remix kicks in.

There is a correct answer, especially considering the context. Black Panther was of immense cultural importance. And then Chadwick Bozeman died:

I’ve watched this dozens of times. Gives me goosebumps.

Re: Alien, the shorter tv commercial made an impression on me when I was 11.

I forgot how powerful this trailer is. The lines from Angela Bassett are killer.

yeah those alien trailers are amazing, especially considering the style at the time was heavy on voiceovers

I can’t wait for the judging in this. I can’t remember good trailers anymore, and am hoping for my memory to be jogged, especially since so many trailers are bad these days, especially in the mix. The last one I remember being highly impacted by in the theater was Creed. It doesn’t play as well on the internet, but it was soup to nuts great in the theater.

I’m sure this one goes nowhere, but I’m in my 50s now and still remember this trailer scaring the bejesus out of me

“Don’t see it alone!”
