His watchmen trailer is still one of my favorites: https://youtu.be/wdiHDzT6YbQ?si=CKcY4fqFnDLGuHzO Also loved his man of steel trailers https://youtu.be/KVu3gS7iJu4?si=sGqdM3kbNG1-FRyR https://youtu.be/wArmHSPIvlQ?si=3uFQPSIhM1oY_mTW
minus-squareMoobythegoldensock@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up2·2 years agoI like his movies, too. But compare Army of the Dead to the actual film, it’s not even close to as good. He can nail trailers and opening scenes, but they always seem to underwhelm by midway through.
