Twilight trailer
Each trailer includes sweeping shots of the Pacific Northwest (Oh, was this filmed on location?), faux-sexual tension between the leads illustrated with a shot of Edward getting all up in Bella's grill (so to speak), and piano music transitioning into thumping bass to introduce the supernatural (thanks, 'Harry Potter' trailers).
Are the 'Twilight' editors using the same seven-item checklist to churn out these trailers? Maybe this is what it looks like.
'Twilight'
Sweeping shots of the Pacific Northwest? Check. Did you know they have nature there? Tons of it! Just look at that deer!
Close-up shots of Brooding R.Patz and his lady love? Check. We could drown in their moon eyes.
A truck or two? Check. How else are we supposed to know that Forks is rural? Come on.
Heart-to-hearts in the forest? Check. I know when I'm dating someone I love, I'm having all our important conversations outside, in the forest, in the cold.
Piano music? Check.
Stating the obvious? Check. "She's not one of us!" Oh, wait. Now we totally get it.
Slow motion? Check.
'New Moon'
Sweeping shots of the Pacific Northwest? Check. Nice view of the ocean right off the bat.
Close-up shots of Brooding R.Patz and his lady love? Check.
A truck or two? Check. Second shot of the trailer is where the truck does its best acting.
Heart-to-hearts in the forest? Check. Edward and Bella break up amongst the foliage.
Piano music? Check. Set over a pounding heartbeat, so you know this trailer's serious.
Stating the obvious? Check. "It's my birthday." "Ouch. It's a paper cut."
Slow motion? Check. Jasper goes flying through the air into a piano. (This is actually pretty cool.)
'Eclipse'
Sweeping shots of the Pacific Northwest? Check. The tops of pine trees lead into some gorgeous mountains that continue throughout the trailer.
Close-up shots of Brooding R.Patz and his lady love? Check. The couple stands in a meadow while Edward's voiceover promises he will love Bella forever. Awww.
A truck or two? Check. It gets robbed with just a few background shots, but it's there.
Heart-to-hearts in the forest? Check. This time werewolf Jacob professes his love for Bella outside.
Piano music? Check.
Stating the obvious? Check. "I want you to pick me ... instead of him."
Slow motion? Check. New Victoria (Bryce Dallas Howard) menacingly leaps from rock to rock looking ... well, menacing.

Hey everyone,
Have a look at these key art montages illustrating how key art is so stereotypical!
Most of the time you can tell the genre of a movie by just glancing at the poster.
There are 10 images in the series link for full viewing.
ex: orange on black and white is action and crime
I think its the kind of thing you dont really notice until you see the comparison. wow.

I just love the fourth X-men movie. It explains so much about Logans past. I cry everytime I see Hugh in the movie nearly in tears when someone he loves or cares about is killed. I just can't stand seeing men cry, but only true men cry. It twists around action and romance in such a great way. I love the part when he is on the motorcycle and he retracts his claws and shreds Striker's men car and it flips into the air and almost hits Zero. It's so cool when he blows up the helicopter in slow mo. It gives be goosebumps everytime I see him walk away with a serious face on him. It's so hot! It's said at the end when he gets his memory taken away from him and he doesn't remember the girl of his dreams and she dies right there on the spot after driving Striker away. It was also a good idea to make Sabertooth, Wolverine's bro. That made the movie more exciting and shows the rivalry of them in the first X-men movie. I think Hugh did a wonderful job acting all aggressive and all.
