There was enough time in this trailer for me to know i would definitely like this movie.
WTF ? I want more
This trailer was so confusing to me that, for the first time in 37 years, I google'd a movie before seeing it to understand whattttt the actual HEck is going on. "…whose girlfriend Tatiana disappears suddenly in a flash of a blinding light. Completely traumatized by the situation, Alex, along with his friends and a conspiracy theorist, embarks on a journey through a desert"
Imo, the trailer should start with a flash of light, then the scene of the camper, then do whatever you want with the rest, because now all of the chaos at least "fits in a box." The box doesn't make sense, but at least you know what the box looks like. Without understanding that a girl flashes out of existence, this is an irritatingly confusing hodgepodge of clips, at one point I thought we were on Mars with a rover.
Look, watch the trailer from 00:27 to 00:33 and tell me that's not irritatingly confusing. From Goat to view of Earth to swimming Pool to…….like what is happening. "Would you risk everything for the one you love?" It's just such a vague question. Risk everything in what context ??
I don't know much about trailers, but i know this is too confusing. As I was typing this out, I thought about a movie along a similar vein as this one (in that something weird is happening and you go to the movie to see what it is)…"Unbreakable" with Bruce Willis. Frankly, an abysmal movie imo. Just sooo dumb. But for what it's worth, their trailer did a good job of introducing the question the movie solves. It gives context so the moviegoer knows what I'm about to spend $120 to go see with my wife after popcorn and babysitter.
Just my $.02, but start this sucker off with the two in love (but not a vague dark silhouette, but like them at that party, then that flash of light, then maybe a clip of someone discrediting the conspiracy theorist, and then the camper going out in to the dessert, then do literally anything after that. Without those scenes, i don't know if i'm on Mars and discovering aliens or … idk. Not the best "1st comment" of a movie, I'm sure, obviously delete my comment without prejudice, but hopefully this has been helpful.
one final though on this and then i'm done, i promise. It's honestly the "Would you risk everything for the one you love?" it's just sooooooooo confusingggggggg. What do you mean "risk everything" ….. like in war? or, in a home invasion? or if they're put in a cult? or if they're in space and you want them back by the pool?"
Just……"What would you do if the one person that matters most to you in this world disappears?" clip clip clip. "How far would you go to get them back?" conspiracy theorist. camper. goat. gruesome hand. "something something come pay us $"
Will I go see that? Hm.. Yeah, probably. Now, going in to the movie, I know that it's about how far I'll go to save my girl from something terrifying and unexplainable. Now, going in to the movie, I know, for $120, when the credits roll, my girls' gonna be holding me tight and looking up at me and hopefully ask, "would you do that for me?" I'm gonna say yes. and I'm gonna get laid.
I don't know about trailers and cinematography, but I know about getting laid.
