Welcome to the 10 Best Trailers of 2010. This is the 10th Annual List dating back to 2001 and my sixth year bringing it exclusively to JoBlo.com. If you visit the Trailers Page frequently, you should know my tastes quite well. Keep coming back for the rest of the year and we’ll slowly be rolling out the Top 10 one by one. Sometimes great trailers make great movies and other times they make you see awful movies. Don’t hesitate to strike back below if you think I must be completely nuts. (Also, keep in mind that some trailers that you’ve seen this year were on last year’s list.)
# 4 SCOTT PILGRIM VS. THE WORLD
I was late bloomer to the charms of Scott Pilgrim. I had heard a lot of the hype early on but the movie didn’t really click until I saw this trailer. With the special effects at the forefront and the sense of humor at the core, this trailer sells this movie like a bag of dope to Michael Lohan. While not kick-to-the-balls funny, this trailer is smart-funny in a way that had me revisiting the jokes well after the trailer had ended. And for those Michael Cera haters, this trailer goes beyond his typically paint-by-number awkwardly dry comedies. Finally, the soundtrack here is epic, especially the inspired inclusion of the Prodigy’s “Invaders Must Die”.
