Movie Trailers Recut

We all know that trailers are quite often better than the films they represent, but I never actually thought about the framing power that they have. Like real life, moments can be taken completely out of context to portray the film in myriad ways. Here are a few examples:

Marry Poppins (Horror)

Planes, Trains, and Automobiles (Gay Drama)

Office Space (Thriller)

Lost in Translation (Thriller)

Thanks to Lex Communis for pointing me in this direction.
