This supercut from Red Letter Media shows that movie trailers, especially for blockbusters, are pretty much all the same. Following the same tried and tested formula, the same tropes, especially action movies, they all appear to be describing the exact same movie.

Of course an action movie set in a post-apocalyptic world where everyone rides around in supped up modded cars is always going to be a bit ridiculous, and Honest Trailers are more than happy to point that out in this video. They also point out that the plot of the movie is pretty thin too, [...]

Tobey Maguire’s Spider-Man gets a makeover, as the Sam Raimi Spidey movies get re-edited in the offbeat style of the Deadpool trailer, giving the webslinger a bit of an edge that’s usually missing from Peter Parker’s more clean-cut image. With some epic editing skills and DMX’s “X Gon’ Give It To Ya” over the top, [...]

Vin Diesel plays a witch hunter, Ygritte from Game of Thrones plays a dream walker, and it also stars Elijah Wood and Michael Caine. And, by the looks of this trailer, this movie looks like pure guilty pleasure thrills as humanity’s very survival is threatened by an all-powerful evil Queen Witch and it’s down to [...]

It starts with a Stephen Hawking type robotic voice waxing about the birth of the universe and the wonder and brilliance of the human brain, while we’re treated to visuals whooshing through the neural pathways of the mind—so it basically starts with a huge curveball that makes you question whether this is the right trailer.

Pixar’s latest movie Inside Out has been a massive success at the box-office with its tear-jerking narrative of a young girl trying to deal with the emotions of moving to a new town. But one thing it’s missing is some pounding music to get the adrenaline pumping, but thankfully Vimeo user Nelson Carvajal has added [...]

Sexy just got, well, normal with Nacho Punch’s spoof trailer for a fake movie Regular Mike, which sees a regular normal guy come onto the stripping stage. And instead of driving women wild with his sculpted abs and toned bod, he drives them wild with his abilities to complete domestic chores, like separating the recycling [...]

The Wachowski’s ‘Jupiter Ascending’ arrived at cinemas and was pretty much universally panned by critics for its incoherent and ludicrous plot, much to the disappointment of people expecting another original sci-fi in the style of their 90s hit The Matrix. So, don’t expect Honest Trailers to cut it any slack—and they don’t.

Ultron as the Tin-Man? Yes, that has happened because the internet can make anything possible. Darren Wallace has created a parody trailer for a film that doesn’t exist but you’ll wish it did—Avengers of Oz: Age of Tin Man where Wallace mashes up Avengers with the classic movie The Wizard of Oz.

Pope Francis recently used his encyclical, a letter sent to his minions to lay out the issues that the Catholic church should be sticking their holy nose in, to highlight environmental concerns. He used it to shout out about climate change and the need for governments to do more than they are to stem it. [...]

When we all watched Toy Story back in the 90s we must have been so wowed by the digital animation that we passed over certain elements of the plot. Elements like the fact Woody is an egomaniac a-hole and the fact that, what passes itself off as a kid’s film about toys coming to life [...]
