Re-cut trailers

Re-cut trailers refers to a re-edited film trailer that is created by re-editing footage from that film, or possibly just from that film’s trailer. Re-cut trailers have become a popular internet phenomenon since fall of 2005. In almost all cases, these re-cut trailers derive their humor from casting the film’s plot in a different light- these fake trailers present the film as something that it is very much not. For instance, a film with a murderous plot is made to look like a light and happy film, or vice versa. [Link]

    Editing trailers is fun, yet a very hard task. I was an assistant editor on some big trailers last year. But the recut trailers is something that could actually show what a talented editor can do. The one i like most so far is the Shining recut trailer. Have you seen it mark?
