TODAY'S FEATURED TRAILER IS...
FANTASTIC MR. FOX !
Summary:
Angry farmers, tired of sharing their chickens with a sly fox, look to get rid of their opponent and his family.
The first thing that popped up in my head was 'Aww, another animation trailer!', which a positive response cause most of the time animations don't let you down! And so far after watching the trailer, I still have that theory plastered in my head! :D It looks really good, most likely funny and the actor's voices seem to fit the character roles well! :) The animation itself is extraordinary and probably doesn't need more syllables in explaining how wonderful it looks! *lol* I was laughing after I watched this! :) Check it out! :D

FAME !
When I saw this trailer, I cried after hearing the song played in the end. It was overwhelming and it was emotional for me cause it was personal. I was touched by this movie, and I think its gonna be a really great watch! The dance & singing sequences look fabulous and top notch! If you like these sort of musical movies, you may like this remake of the original FAME! ;)

TRAILER MUSIC || EPIC-NESS
Dun dun DUN! :D
Lately, whenever I get a chance to see a trailer in the movie theatre (which I love seeing, btw! It's always fun to see new trailers if they're good!) or when I see it online, I go, "Hey! I've heard that trailer music before!" or... "I wonder what music is playing on that trailer!" because, hey! It's always fun and exciting to know! :) And usually after I find out, I put it in my ipod touch playlist for later listening! :D
As you may have well noticed, I'm a big fan of trailer music and I thought I'd share some stuff about the awesome band of people who make the film previews really, truly come to light! :D
Here are a few bands I know where their music has been used quite a lot on many occasions of blockbuster movies! :)
--- A Credit Reel is like a summary of all the famous music that is used in the trailers! ---
(Warning: Very heart-stopping intro of the website! Made me jump! o.o!
Not for the fainthearted, I think!)
They all have a distinct familiarity with each song - the way the beat flows, the choir singing, the intensity that heightens, etc. But there's a twist in many of the songs that they produce, and that's what makes them all very interesting! (Unless you're a real movie geek, you may not care that much about the music player in movie trailers though, though, lol! But alas, I am! :)
There is a whole extensive list of songs written in SoundtrackNet if you'll like to find a particular piece of music that was played in one of the movie trailers that you saw! ;)

GLOBUS!
I'm a real sucker for epic music, and this group has really captivated my attention for quite a while now! Their songs are all dramatic and enthralling, and its a treat to listen to them when you want the adrenaline rush! (They are also known as 'Immediate Music', many of their music is used for movie trailers!) The few songs that have lyrics are full of passionate words of heroism, courage and justice! :) Definitely worth a check! ;)

THE ILLUSIONIST !
Summary:

I like this trailer because its simple, breathtaking in a sense that will make you ponder, and sensuous. The graphics of the movie are elegant and even though it seems slow, the flow of it does not waver. The great sense of mystery continues to brood over this trailer even after you finish watching it. It definitely makes you curious about what the whole movie is about. Check it out! ;)

Huh! It's Drew Barrymore's directorial debut? That's gotta be something interesting to see! :) I liked this trailer though because of its humor and the element of fun surrounding it! It reminds me slightly of the movie 'Juno', for just a bit - probably because of Ellen Page, who I think rocks! - but I think this movie is gonna be enjoyable to watch! :) Check the trailer out! ;D

Their music is electric and alluring, with the after effects of the songs still rushing down your senses with tingling static. Their lyrics are unique and might be considered to be strange. Yet, they are nonetheless sophisticated! :) The lead singers and the sounds that connect with their voices are resonating in match with themselves, and gives them some edge into each song. Check them out! :D

BRIGHT STAR !
Summary:
The drama based on the three-year romance between 19th century poet John Keats and Fanny Brawne, which was cut short by Keats' untimely death at age 25.
All I can say after watching this trailer was that I knew I was going to cry from the heartbreaking ending awaiting this beautiful movie. The story looks intricate and well done, the acting is superb from the few moments in the trailer and the music that was used here was stunning. It took my breath away. It may sound like your usual common story, but I think we'll have to see about that after we get to watch the real thing. Check it out!

THE POTBELLEEZ!
The contents of their songs can most likely best described as - Spice, Fire & Adrenaline! The sounds are sophisticated, sick and worthwhile to the years! The perfect songs for a fun-filled dance! My favorite song of all time would be 'Don't Hold Back'! It has the exhilarating element that just works with the sound of the lead singer's voice! They are definitely a real treat to listen to!
