Title: Anyone seen Honest Trailers?
Post by: AoTFan on April 18, 2016, 07:04:52 PM
It's this series on YouTube where a guy with a deep voice narrates a trailer for various films (he also the voice for Honest Game Trailers) and it's pretty funny.  They tackle films from a bit of sarcastic point of view, but you can tell they're big geeky fans of the genre (especially action, sci-fi, etc)

One of my favorite lines is from their Avenges: Age of Ultron review (and I'm paraphrasing here):L

"The Avengers go against Ultron, a malevolent A.I. that wants to destroy the world, and hates the Avengers because.....  REASONS!"

I've posted several of them, but I've actually grown tired of the latest ones. They seem to be falling into patterns and overdoing things (some of them are 7 minutes long now!), searching for new gimmicks to keep it fresh. Here's a good one:

Here's a link to all of them.

I used to love them but I agree with Rev.  They need to get back to basics.

The only honest trailers I've ever seen are the ones where they DON'T put the film's best scenes in those few minutes.  :wink:

I like the one for Deadpool; it's pretty good...and meta, just like Deadpool.

I like these trailers though they were better in the past.

In a similar style I like this trailer:

I'd say they are pretty good!  :thumbup:

I have to agree, the older ones are better, but every once and a while I'll see something that still sparks my interest.

Just love the guy's voice. Haven't seen the latest ones, but one of my favourites would be the Dragon Ball Evolution one he did with the Team Four Star Guys (Who are doing the DBZ Abridged-Series -> Great stuff...check it out.).
