This Week’s Top New Movie Trailers
After last week featured three of the worst trailers I’ve ever seen, let’s start this week off right…
Twixt (2011)

DIRECTOR: Francis Ford Coppola
CAST: Val Kilmer, Elle Fanning, Ben Chaplin
FLICKCHART FUTURE: Fantastic Trailer. Introduces the main characters very clearly, sets the tone and makes the movie seem like it has a perfect, off-beat energy to it. Incredibly intriguing without giving anything away. I have a feeling this will become a Flickchart favorite.
In Time (10-28-2011)

DIRECTOR: Andrew Niccol
CAST: Justin Timberlake, Amanda Seyfried, Ben Chaplin
FLICKCHART FUTURE: Timberlake looks extremely out of place but it’s still a pretty good trailer. It has sex, an intriguing story, a cool look and action – what more could you want?
Red Tails (1-20-2012)
DIRECTOR: Anthony Hemingway
CAST: Terrence Howard, Cuba Gooding Jr., Bryan Cranston
FLICKCHART FUTURE: It’s been too long since we got a good fighter pilot movie. This trailer hits all the right marks and looks like it could be something special. It almost seems like a good Disney sports movie but with pilots.
The Darkest Hour (12-23-2011)

CAST: Emile Hirsch, Rachael Taylor, Olivia Thirlby
FLICKCHART FUTURE: Once the actors shut up, this trailer blew me away. When all is said and done this will probably come out on top of the many Alien Invasion movies in 2011.
Like Crazy (10-28-2011)
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r-ZV-bwZmBw[/youtube]
CAST: Anton Yelchin, Felicity Jones, Jennifer Lawrence
FLICKCHART FUTURE: Like Crazy seems like the type of slightly quirky, hip and artsy romance movie Flickchart users love.
Arena (10-11-2011)

CAST: Samuel L. Jackson
FLICKCHART FUTURE: Arena looks pretty putrid.
