I just cut a trailer for our baseball film. There's no pretentious vo (too expensive) but I did write some titles that are probably pretentious. The producer and director liked it but the test will be if the distributor likes it. Guess I'll find out next week or whenever they send it to him.

I don't remember trailers from my childhood but I do remember hearing radio ads. My favorite was for an exploitation film called POOR WHITE TRASH. I had never heard that phrase before so my mom had to explain it to me.  ("Mom, how can trash be poor?")

TOD: I love the fact that many DVDs of classic films are including the trailer, so you can see how some of th ebest are made. I think I like any of the lurid trailers for film noir classics like "Out of the Past" best because of the overly dramatic music and the slashing titles that rip across the screen. The blacks seem blacker (more likely the trailers haven't been touched up or preserved as well as the films themselves), the tension seems to build in just a minute or two, and you really want to see the movie.

When I was growing up in Louisville, we had a great revival movie theater, the Vogue, about a mile from the house. About once each season, the theater would show 90 minutes or so of nothing but classic trailers, so you could see the best from Hollywood and abroad. Sometimes, they would book a few of the films, such as a "Reefer Madness," for a midnight showing. Or they used it to promote an upcoming festival of, say, Ingmar Bergman films. But mostly, it was a program of previews that made you appreciate the art of selling a film in a limited amount of time. They were fun evenings and often drew a good crowd.

Post by: John G. on May 31, 2010, 03:19:56 AM
One last bit on previews: I hate the way too many previews today encapsulate the entire movie in a short time. I feel I don't need to see the movie because I've seen too much (and too much I don't like) in the preview. There's no suspense or surprise left.

Don't have a favorite, but there are several volumes of videos of trailers of movie that played the old 42nd Street Grindhouses. They are called 42nd Street Forever. Currently there are five volumes.

TOD:

I used to love watching the Coming Attraction trailers when I was a kid, but for some reason, I never watch them on the DVDs that I own,  Have no idea why.

Back in the days of 16mm, I had a couple of 20-30 minute reels of trailers strung together, all from various musicals.  They were fun to watch.
Title: Re: COMING ATTRACTIONS
Post by: Druxy on May 31, 2010, 05:07:43 AM
The one trailer I can never forget is the one for Steve McQueen's last movie, THE HUNTER.

Watching that trailer, I thought that this was going to be the most exciting, action-filled movie ever made (back when I liked action-filled movies).

However, it turned out  to be one of the slowest-moving, most boring movies I've ever seen.  Like what they do with comedy trailers today, ALL of the action scenes were in the trailer, and the script itself was terrible. 

Poor film for McQueen to go out on.

I don't know about the movies, but Paramount knew how to make a a damn good trailer back then.

Yes I loved the Coming Attractions, too.  But they made me a little sad because we didn't go to the movies every week, and it just made me know what I would be missing....and for some reason they made the movies I saw that night look a little dull!

Good morning, all! Another night of weird dreams: the house where I grew up was in London, in another, my brother Randy was about 4 or 5 and our brother - the evil Macbeth -  was being cruel to him; I remember picking him up off the pavement and taking him inside for mercurochrome and bandaids. I also had a very weird dream connected to this London one involving the need to wash dishes.

So, I've received this morning the proofs of seven numbers from one of my copyists, so I have them to proof, along with the ROSE OF ALGERIA scores. I may get as well the corrected scores from my other copyist as well.

Previews were one of my favorite parts of movie going as a kid; they were often more fun than the film I was there to see. I remember nothing about them now.

I Loved Coming Attractions-Used To Call Them (when a tad of a Boy) COMING EXTRACTIONS.

Thought-

If They are available-Wouldn't it be great if someone(BK?) could put the most wonderful Coming Attractions on A DVD? I believe it would find a Huge audience(sell very well). Any Chance?

DR ELMORE the Dream-0-Matic 6000 says that you view your home and childhood as being as distant from your life now as a foreign country - but there is still the need to protect your brother Randy from your other sibliing.

Washing dishes is also a symbol of wanting things cleaned up and stacked nicely and put away.

On Labor Day, we have Drive-Invasion, where each night they show 3 B movies. In-between movies they show about a half hour of b movie trailers which make outlandish, hypey statements about their films. As someone who makes their living cutting trailers and promos, this is my favorite part of the night. They also have bands that play vintage rock and pop, and a classic car show, so it's a day and night affair. One year it was all Herschel Gordon Lewis films (TWO THOUSAND MANICS, BLOOD FEAST,etc.) and he was the guest of honor. Sometimes it's cheap, cheesy stuff like TRADER HORNEE, SPIDER BABY.

They haven't announced their line-up this year, but last year I was very sad to miss SHANTY TRAMP!

Muncie and Indy television personality and Professor, Dr. Conrad Lane, has frequently told me about how his fascination with Frances Farmer started:  when he was a kid he went to the movies and saw the trailer for EBB TIDE.  According to Conrad, it started in black and white with Frances emerging from the water like Venus from the half shell, and then the voiceover said, "Let's see that again in beautiful Technicolor," and of course they showed it in full color (this was only Paramount's second three strip Technicolor film).  He was hooked.

I received a very nice e-mail from someone who just ordered the new book from Kritzerland, and all the older books (all nine) from amazon - in hardcover.  So, all ten of my books are very nicely positioned in the amazon sales rank this morning, nine of the books all in the 55,000 range.  But to show you how funny the sales rank is - each of the hardcovers in the sales rank prior to the order were around 3,000,000 plus.  One sale brought them down to 55,000.  Can you imagine what five sales would do - I'd be in the top 1000 :)

The trick is going to be to pick out a color for the hallway that goes with the yellow/gold of the dining room, the tan of the living room and the pink of the entry.  If I can pull that off, it will have a very nice flow to it.

Good thing Keith was in nearby when I reached to far & toppled over.  I was trying not to have to stand up & walk around the chair I was oiling & sit back down on the floor.  I'm wearing socks & was on a hardwood floor.  I could feel myself slipping & realized I was going over.  I let out a little squeal to get Keith's attention & realized no way could he reach me in time.  I'm very pleased with myself, I managed not to spill a single drop of oil and I kind of tipped over.  I was already low to the ground so no residual damage was done.

Well... After playing through a bit of Wagner and Verdi (no Strauss this week as it turned out), I stepped back out into a somewhat less hot and less humid New York City.  Since I was down at 72nd Street, I decided to walk over to Central Park... Through Strawberry Fields... Through the Ramble... Past the Delacorte... Down the middle of the Great Lawn... Over to the Pinetum... Skirting the Reservoir... Across the North Woods... Then through the Harlem Meer to the northern edge of the Park... Then 35 more blocks home.
