Guest NoCalMike Posted May 15, 2003 Report Posted May 15, 2003 I swear this trailer got almost more applause than any part(including the beginning or the end) of Matrix Reloaded. I seriously couldn't believe it because for one, the crowd I saw Matrix with didn't seem like your typical sci-fi geek crowd. What was your crowd reaction like?
Guest RedJed Posted May 15, 2003 Report Posted May 15, 2003 I went to the 10pm Matrix last night and the trailer was the first to come on. Nobody really reacted though since the lights didnt dim down in the theater at all until halfway through the thing and something was wrong with the sound, none of the speakers were working on the sides, just the direct front ones. This didnt get fixed until the T3 trailer started. So you could barely hear anything, especially since the theater was jammed packed. So it was kind of a letdown, but I know when it first started, I wasnt the first one to know what it was all about, since I heard people mentioning this was Freddy v. Jason. Oh yeah and I think this crowd was totally the typical Sci-Fi geeky crowd, there were people coming into the theater dressed like Trinity and Neo, etc. Not to judge a certain type of person but I saw alot of people there reminiscent to what you'd probably see at a Star Trek convention.
Guest NoCalMike Posted May 16, 2003 Report Posted May 16, 2003 Hahaha, only thing worse than people dressed as Jedi, are people dressed as Neo.
Guest JAxlMorrison Posted May 16, 2003 Report Posted May 16, 2003 The only previews I got were for T3, Bad Boys 2, 2 Fast 2 Furious (why God why?), and some movie where Tom Cruise knows Kung Fu (Last Samurai?)
Guest RedJed Posted May 16, 2003 Report Posted May 16, 2003 Yeah those were on my cut of the film too..........I talked to a friend from back home who said they didn't show the Freddy v. Jason trailer down there either...........must only be on certain cuts of the film. Wonder how they determine which places to put the trailer on?
Guest tpww7 Posted May 16, 2003 Report Posted May 16, 2003 Mine ahd Freddy vs Jason, as well as T3, the tom cruise movie, and Finding Nemo.
Guest fazzle Posted May 16, 2003 Report Posted May 16, 2003 Wow. These mentions of 4 or 5 previews. I can't even remember the last movie I saw here that only had that many previews
Guest NoCalMike Posted May 16, 2003 Report Posted May 16, 2003 Usually when a movie is shown on more than one screen, it gets different trailers. Only time they all get the same trailers is if a certain trailer is promised and is sealed onto the film.
Guest TUS_02 Posted May 16, 2003 Report Posted May 16, 2003 I saw the Freddy vs Jason trailer the night before I saw the Matrix, so as soon as 1980 flashed on the screen I through my hands up and cheered like the internet geek I am. Once other people realized what the trailer was, they got cheerful as well. Then they played Legally Blond 2... which KILLED the crowd... I mean seriously... whose bright idea was it to show THAT preview for the Matrix?
Guest HollywoodSpikeJenkins Posted May 16, 2003 Report Posted May 16, 2003 Then they played Legally Blond 2... which KILLED the crowd... I mean seriously... whose bright idea was it to show THAT preview for the Matrix? Whose bright idea was it to make the sequal?
TheOriginalOrangeGoblin Posted May 16, 2003 Report Posted May 16, 2003 We didn't get Freddy v Jason. We got Bad Boys 2, League of Extraordinary Gentlemen(some geek got up and cheered when Sean Connery appeared on screen), Finding Nemo, Legally Blondes 2, 2 Fast 2 Furious, T3 and that samurai Tom Cruise movie(Last Samurai I think).
Guest RedJed Posted May 17, 2003 Report Posted May 17, 2003 some geek got up and cheered when Sean Connery appeared on screen lol man, if I would have seen that, he would have SO gotten my soda to the back of his head
Guest Kotzenjunge Posted May 17, 2003 Report Posted May 17, 2003 We got 2 Fast 2 Furious, T3, Pirates of the Carribean, and The Last Samurai. Oh, and the funny Powerade commerical with Agent Smith.
Guest Mole Posted May 17, 2003 Report Posted May 17, 2003 The only previews I got were for T3, Bad Boys 2, 2 Fast 2 Furious (why God why?), and some movie where Tom Cruise knows Kung Fu (Last Samurai?) Same with me.
Guest The Grand Pubah of 1620 Posted May 17, 2003 Report Posted May 17, 2003 I'm seeing it later today. I have already seen the J/F trailor, but I really want to see it on the big screen. The theatre I'm going to is showing Matrix on 6 screens, I hope I get the trailor.
Guest mesepher Posted May 17, 2003 Report Posted May 17, 2003 my friend said his theater laughed at the preview... jerks
Guest Mattdotcom Posted May 17, 2003 Report Posted May 17, 2003 The theatre I went to had the poster but not the trailer. We got Finding Nemo, T3, Legally Blonde 2, League of Extraordinary Gentleman, The Last Samurai, and at least two more.

And this was before the 80's!
LaParkaYourCar Posted May 18, 2003 Report Posted May 18, 2003 The only previews I got were for T3, Bad Boys 2, 2 Fast 2 Furious (why God why?), and some movie where Tom Cruise knows Kung Fu (Last Samurai?) Same here. I felt cheated. The previews I got were: Legally Blonde 2, The Last Samurai, Kill Bill, LXG, 2 Fast 2 Furious, The Italian Job, and Bad Boys 2. I might be thinking of another time on a couple of those cause 7 previews sounds a little much.

God damn man, just relaaaax. I wasnt even dissing on Connery, just any fucking idiot who stands up and cheers for anything or anyone........when credits are rolling is that only acceptable, IMO. I gotta say though if you TRULY think Connery is better than sex, you need psychological help!

Guest Mattdotcom Posted May 18, 2003 Report Posted May 18, 2003 Oh, we also got a Kill Bill trailer, which was received very poorly. Some dopey chick who was with my group thought it was Charlie's Angels 2... =(
Guest Crucifixio Jones Posted May 18, 2003 Report Posted May 18, 2003 Damn. Sounds like I got the best of the bunch. My previews were: 1. Jason vs Freddy (I'd say it actually got a good reaction from the people that bothered to talk about it. Everyone else was pretty quiet) 2. The Italian Job (Just a good laugh at Mos Def's "I had a bad experience" line and Seth Green's "I've got the Holy Spirit" line) 3. Bad Boys II (little to no reaction even at the supposedly "funny" parts) 4. The Last Samurai (silence, except for me when I saw Tom Cruise...I fought to contain myself) 5. Kill Bill (poor reception, some guy said "What the fuck was that?" I wanted to stab him) 6. Terminator 3 (apathy) I didn't get 2 Fast 2 Furious, Legally Blonde 2 or Finding Nemo although I wish I would've gotten the LXG trailer (even though I've seen it a million times already along with everything else listed here) I got the LXG trailer attached to X-Men 2 when I saw that opening day.
Guest fazzle Posted May 18, 2003 Report Posted May 18, 2003 I got: 2 Fast 2 Furious, Finding Nemo, LXG, Freddy vs. Jason, Last Samurai, Bad Boys 2, T3, the Powerade commercial, a Marines commercial, and a credit card commercial.
Guest the pinjockey Posted May 18, 2003 Report Posted May 18, 2003 I was hoping for the T3 one just to see what it looks like, but that didn't happen. Did anyone else get the Pirates of the Carribean trailer? I haven't seen that mentioned. I got that, LXG, Fvs.J, Last Samurai, Legally Blonde 2, 2F2F, and The Italian Job.
