'Green Lantern' Fan Trailer Creator Is Back

By Nikki Finke | Category: Comic Books | Tuesday January 26, 2010 @ 4:49pm PST

This is way beyond my very limited geek expertise. But everybody keeps emailing it to me. So Jaron Pitts, who made the "amazing" fan trailer for The Green Lantern is back again, this time creating a fake trailer for a live action remake of anime film Technotise. Pitts writes on his YouTube page that he made the trailer at the behest of some Hollywood producers. Funny, how both trailers are for Warner Bros movies... Just another viral video campaign from the marketing plan:

And here's his Green Lantern video, too:

Trailer: Oliver Stone's 'South Of The Border'

By Nikki Finke | Category: Documentaries, Film Festivals | Thursday September 3, 2009 @ 1:29pm PST

I've been given the U.S. exclusive look at the trailer for Oliver Stone’s new documentary South of the Border which is sharply critical of the U.S. media's coverage of Venezuelan president Hugo Chavez and 6 other Latin American leaders. Stone will personally premiere the film at the Venice Film Festival this Monday:

FIRST LOOK AT 'AVATAR' TRAILER ONLINE

By Nikki Finke | Category: Movies | Thursday August 20, 2009 @ 1:50pm PST

News Corp's UK newspaper The Sun claimed it had the Avatar trailer numero uno. Then again, Apple/iTunes actually had first dibs for a 24-hour window. Now Fox is sending "take down" notices to everybody else. What a cock-up. I'm so sick of all the hype and secrecy. But now we can presume to know why Twentieth Century Fox and Jim Cameron were keeping it under wraps for so long. The Avatar trailer makes it look, um, er, like a Disney movie. I swear Twink was in there. Maybe a Pixar character or two. A lot of you think Cameron caught Lucas flu and express surprise Jar Jar Binks got his own movie. Others fear this is Dances With Wolves set in space. Please, Jim, guarantee us this is not another The Abyss. Or worse.

TRAILER DEBUT: 'The Wolfman'

By Nikki Finke | Category: Movies | Thursday August 20, 2009 @ 10:08am PST

Another sepia-toned pic from sepia-infused Universal... Here's the trailer for The Wolfman, about which there's tremendous curiosity because its release date has been pushed back three times -- from February 13th, 2009, to April 3rd, 2009, to November 6th, 2009, to now February 12th, 2010 -- and re-shoots were done in May. On the trailer, Rick Baker's transformative skills look as good as ever. This first trailer for The Wolfman will be attached to Inglourious Basterds in theaters Friday.

Nazi Propaganda Isn't Movie Trailer Fun

By Nikki Finke | Wednesday August 5, 2009 @ 7:02pm PST

nations pride

Now, which moron at The Weinstein Company thinks this is an appropriate fake trailer to hawk Quentin Tarantino's Inglourious Basterds? People are being fooled by this abomination: a trailer for a Nazi propaganda film that went up on Apple today from "Arien Productions" glorifying a hero of the Third Reich. The film "Nation's Pride" is advertised as having an exclusive engagement in Paris (at the theater where Basterds has a plot point) and the opening line of the narration is "From Reich Minister Dr Joseph Goebbels..." This isn't clever marketing, folks. It's classless.
