you are about to embark on the most
dangerous job interview in the world if
the last time wasn’t bad enough this
list proves that Hollywood really will
do anything to get butts in the seats
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’re
counting down our picks for another top
ten misleading movie trailers
like last time we’re looking at trailers
two movies that failed to do justice to
the film’s content and vastly misled
audiences making them expect a different
experience you don’t know what happens
no that’s why I’m reading it what does
the dog die again no I’m not saying
anything how much I had left this can be
anything from focusing on the wrong
subject matter relying too heavily on
jokes or anything else that made the
trailer stray too far from the actual
film the fraternity has trained
assassins for thousands of years you’ll
be given everything you need curve ball
as you may have expected a spoiler alert
is in order I think is ready number 10
Kingsman the Secret Service huge IQ
great performance of school but you gave
up those who watched this trailer
probably thought great just another spy
movie we do not need oh yes very nice
what is this the electric area don’t be
ridiculous
it’s a hand grenade however those who
watched the film were pleasantly
surprised by an experience unlike any
other
complete with ridiculous action
sequences hilarious situations and a
movie that never took itself too
seriously while overcoming the usual
tropes my people will be getting in
touch with you very soon I guarantee
unfortunately the trailer only focuses
on the action element making it look
like just another run-of-the-mill secret
agent flick rather than the original and
refreshing take on the genre that it
actually was number 9 Ghost World
what you think you’re doing noise rock
and roll baby
freedom of speech like I roll at the
complete opposite end of the spectrum
there is ghost world a tragedy disguised
as a comedy by a trailer that basically
shows every joke in the movie what are
we in slow motion here wow what are you
hypnotized that support kids why don’t
you it looks like a typical
coming-of-age film filled with awkward
teenage humor and there’s not even a
semblance of a plot present just joke
after joke
hey hey you how many times I gave you no
shirt no service get the hell out of my
store what do you think this is got Meg
American dude learn the rules the story
follows teenagers as they play a prank
on a lonely man only it backfires and
ruins all their lives I’m so bad it’s
one looks good it’s just so bad it’s
gone past getting back to bad again it’s
far more dramatic and evocative than the
light-hearted trailer lets on you’re the
one who’s still living out some stupid
seventh grade fantasy your own apartment
you have fun living with your dad for
the rest of your life number eight
Adventureland party at my house tonight
my dad’s at attempt yeah I’m invited yep
I’m telling you once you make one
popular movie all your others will be
judged according to its standards
such is the unfortunate case with Greg
Mottola whose gross-out Superbad was a
hit with audiences for the whole quarter
this meant that his intimate and
meaningful film adventureland about a
young adult who gets a job at an
amusement park was marketed as another
crass inappropriate film like his
predecessor
although audiences were treated to a
relatable story filled with surprising
depth then he left disappointed that
they didn’t see more nut shots and
awkward sex scenes number 7 the skeleton
twins I was thinking you’d come stay
with me the movie stars Bill Hader and
Kristen Wiig post Saturday Night Live so
of course it should be quirky and
hilarious right I can’t wait to be the
creepy gay uncle
you’re hired the trailer certainly
thinks so as it’s filled with awkward
sibling humor like silly dancing and
mother hating jokes and the blurbs all
reflect how hilarious it is one of the
boys show up it’s Dyke night sweetie
what while the trailer does hint at
drama it never hits the serious weight
of the film which opens with the two
main characters on the brink of suicide
the movie was praised for its dark
performances and difficult subject
matter but you wouldn’t know it from
this trailer a very serious question for
you mm-hmm will you go to prom with me
number six the spongebob movie
sponge out of water rushed
the movie is called sponge out of water
so it seems obvious to market the movie
as a spongebob adventure on land rather
than the ocean floor the movie follows
Sponge Bob and his gang as they travel
to the surface to take back a magical
book but the problem is that they only
break the surface in the last 20 minutes
we need to get these guys back into
water this place mouth while audiences
were expecting an animation live-action
hybrid on the surface they were instead
given a typical spongebob experience
with only a fraction of the running time
actually taking place on land number 5
the place beyond the pines
ryan gosling and Bradley Cooper are two
of this generations finest actors soon
naturally filmmakers wanted to show the
two together when marketing this film
who’s that guy he’s yours the trailer
focuses extensively on Gosling and his
story even though the film is split into
three distinct acts and Gosling
disappears after the first it’s a
fantastic story about what it means to
be a father and director Derek
Cianfrance was praised for his ambition
but that ambition is stunted in the
trailer that only focuses on a small
part of a much larger framework got a
kid you want to provide for that kid you
got to do that using your skill set your
skill set shit down
number four contagion
you had a seizure this morning Beth
Ricci in the wake of epidemics like h1n1
and stars it’s only natural that
Hollywood would produce a story about
the worldwide fear of disease they’re
calling out the National Guard they’re
moving the president underground people
will panic contagion is about a deadly
virus as it travels around the globe and
the trailer does everything it can to
instill fear including showing rampant
death and desolate cityscapes like a
horror movie what are you talking about
what happened to her the movie was
actually a realistic depiction of an
epidemic featuring many scenes of
scientific research and lots of talkin
well just from trying to and I know
we’re getting the same results of Susman
we’ve sequenced the virus and determined
its origin and we’ve modelled the way it
enters the cells of the lung in the
brain and the virus contains both bat
and pig sequences in the bottom right
let’s see the dark green is pig and the
light green is bat and here you can see
the crossover event that and pig back
while still fascinating it’s not nearly
as exciting as the trailer makes its
scene
it’s figuring us out faster than we’re
figuring you know
number three the cabin in the woods
everybody ready
it’s hard to convey satire in a trailer
so we guess they just decided to drop
the satirical angle altogether and
create another typical looking scary
movie preview this is awesome the
trailer features every cliche in the
book including a secluded cabin and a
creepy gas station attendant we’re
looking for what’s called Tillman Road
how’s it get you there
getting back make sure your feets are
all playing over loud rock music and
ominous text what is this thing we have
to stay together what they failed to
convey was that the movie was actually
satirizing these elements and creating
an original horror movie that paid
homage to all that came before it in a
unique fashion
you have a winner it’s the muffler’s
ladies and gentlemen fuck nerd : Elia
number 2 Eternal Sunshine of the
spotless mind I’m Clementine by the way
I’m Joel hi Joel
no jokes about my name with what’s
perhaps one of the oddest trailers ever
this movie was marketed as a
light-hearted romantic comedy when it
was anything but you like oh you look
like tangerine the preview shows clips
of the characters having tons of goofy
fun complete with happy bubbly music in
the background please let me keep this
memory the eraser guys are coming here
the movie is actually about a couple
erasing their memories of each other and
is an intensely dramatic and at times
depressing film it even won the Oscar
for Best Original Screenplay proving how
complex and emotional the film really is
why they used a song like mr. blue sky
is beyond us although we’re guessing
they were deliberately misleading us
one spit
–
are you sure before we mislead you with
our top pick here are some honorable
mentions that’s why we’re Shapiro’s love
us can’t just kick him out he’s family
I gotta get back to work on the tongue
yet what Tom Ian it’s a
cross-pollination between a tomato and
onion cousin I could come back that’s
what I’m talking about
your bird there you are God number one
funny people
hey normally I do better than that just
like Adventureland director Greg Mottola
Judd Apatow has a penchant for raunchy
comedies so when his dramatic funny
people was released the trailers tried
to get as many of his fans on board as
possible I enjoy all your movies watch
movies the ones where you try to kill
Bruce Willis the trailer is filled with
goofy jokes and an upbeat sounding song
portraying a fun movie oh my god people
think I broke up with you did you tell
your mom yes I sent her an email and she
tried it email me back on a toaster the
actual experience definitely was not as
innocent as the film deals with
Sandler’s impending death from cancer
and his failure as a romantic partner
you have a very serious disease it’s
called AML it’s a form of leukemia the
film has even been compared to the great
gatsby due to its tragic nature so when
you go in thinking it’s an Adam Sandler
comedy well you’ll be surprised I like a
man we’re just I don’t know how to fight
on the comedian do you agree with our
list
what trailers mislead you for more
truthful top 10s published every day be
sure to subscribe to watchmojo.com
that’s not fair I had zombies too yes
you did yes you had zombies but this is
zombie redneck torture family see
they’re entirely separate species like
the difference between elephant an
elephant seal
