trailers….. yippe-kay-yay, MuthaF****R!!!

Ever since I discovered the Apple trailer site since I had Streamyx installed last December, on every weekend, I’d be hanging around the site looking for sum new trailers to watch, while simultaneously pushing my expectations waaaaaayyy up high n upcoming movies. Heck, I even made a lame chart depicting movie release dayz. Yeah.. Im a movie buff. I try to catch at least 2 good movies evry month at the local theater.

Now, the point being is that, these trailers serve the purpose of making people getting hyped up for the movies. It’ll make u shout “waaahhhh.,…. Saw that action scene or not?!! Fuyooo… confirm the movie very good one!” or maybe “hahaha… walau-eh… funny lorrrr the trailer… must go theater to watch laa…”. But I guess it’s safe 2 say that we don always get wat we hoped for. I still remember a bad experience called Ghost Rider. All that anticipation build-up was brought down in one crashing moment. Damn you, trailer-producing-people!

But I simply love trailers nonetheless. Wat I love most about these trailers are the catchphrases or “oooomph” dialogues. Like Spidey’s corny-and-often-repeated-yet-holds-a-true-meaning phrase: “with great power, comes great responsibility”. Yaaawwwwnnnn…… Or Rambo 3’s hard-hitting line: “God will have mercy. He wont”. Oooooooo… that will surely make the big bad Russian villain cringe in horror. (yup… I watched the trailer for Rambo 3.. Don’t ask me how I got it or wer I saw it. I just did.) But none can ever match the true all-powerful, most arrogant punchline ever delivered to a villain. “Yipppe-kay-yay, Motherf*****r!!!”. That’s right. Die-hard fans of the Die Hard series sometimes have an orgasm as they hear Bruce Willis give the snappy one-liner before he blasts the hell outta the building, or room, or plane, or whatever platform he is in.

Action movie trailers are the best. You get to see all of the colliding vehicles, explosions, and gunfights condensed into 2 minutes. This is particularly good for movies such as Daylight, as viewers don’t need to watch bad acting by Sly Stallone in emotional scenes. Instead they can just watch Sly blow up mud and ask rats for directions all inside a 2 minute window. How cool is that?!

Wat about tamil movie trailers? Oh well… where do I start?? English movie trailers usually give a slight outline of the plot, so that prospective viewers can decide on whether to go watch these movies by paying RM8 plus some popcorns, or just wait till Axxo releases a DVDRip in a torrent site. Don’t get me wrong. Some tamil movie trailers are good, done wit precision and good plot outlining. Trailers for movies like Kamalhaasan’s Vettaiyaadu Vilaiyaadu, Rajini’s Sivaji and Surya’s Kaaka Kaaka gave us a silhouette of the whole movie. But I cant say the same for all. One example is the movies of Vijay. What the fuck is he thinking? U show a trailer with a bunch of song sequence and ur self-glorifying dialogues and that’s it?? What the fuck was the trailer for? Asshole.

I gotta go now. CSI is about to start. In the words of John McClane: Yippee-Kay-Yay, M***********!!!
