Honest Trailers: ‘Star Trek’

Wookie Johnson — Tue, 07 May 2013 17:06:02 +0000

With Star Trek Into Darkness voyaging into theaters next week, now is the perfect time to rip into the film that is essentially J.J. Abrams’ Episode VII demo reel.

Honest Trailers: ‘The Notebook’

Wookie Johnson — Tue, 12 Feb 2013 18:40:41 +0000

Just in time for Valentine’s Day comes the Honest Trailer for the sappy movie that reminds you, no matter how much you love one another, you’ll both grow old and die.

Honest Trailers: ‘Skyfall’

Wookie Johnson — Tue, 05 Feb 2013 14:33:19 +0000

Javier Bardem‘s goofy hair legally requires that we make this Honest Trailer.

Honest Trailers: ‘The Lord Of The Rings’

Wookie Johnson — Tue, 11 Dec 2012 17:47:28 +0000

With The Hobbit in theaters this week, we figured there was no better time to prepare you for unpronounceable names and lots of walking around than by premiering the Honest Trailer for Lord Of The Rings.

We also did it so CreatedWrestlingFed wouldn’t rape anybody. Seriously, bro. It’s just a web video.

Honest Trailers: ‘Paranormal Activity’

Wookie Johnson — Fri, 19 Oct 2012 16:35:39 +0000

It’s Halloween. Which means time for another Paranormal Activity sequel. In honor of spooky, moving furniture and actors who seem like they won a contest, we’re looking way back to the one that started it all. No. Not The Blair Witch Project. The other one.

Whatever. I still prefer these to Saw sequels.

Honest Trailers: ‘Prometheus’

Wookie Johnson — Fri, 05 Oct 2012 17:49:31 +0000

Many of you were left cold by Prometheus. Ridley Scott took the hopes and dreams of millions of Alien fans and hugged them delicately before shattering them on the ground like a mock-sincere bully. Well, we’re not going to take that. Are you going to take that? I didn’t think so.

The people have spoken and their voices were heard. And thus, we did something really nerdy with Prometheus footage. But mostly because we’re still pissed about Lost!

Honest Trailers: ‘The Dark Knight’

Wookie Johnson — Tue, 17 Jul 2012 14:59:37 +0000

Normally we don’t negotiate with terrorists, but since so many of you demanded it, we gave the honest trailer treatment to one of your all-time favorite films.

From Christopher Nolan, the director who makes Joel Schumacher look like a huge turd sandwich, comes the gritty continuation of Batman and his awful, awful voice : The Dark Knight. Now you can relive all the glorious, gritty plot holes before seeing The Dark Knight Rises…

Honest Trailers: ‘Avatar’

Jame Gumb — Thu, 14 Jun 2012 21:05:10 +0000

Honest Trailers is back, and this time, James Cameron’s Avatar is on the chopping block. And rightfully so. After all, maybe Avatar has fancy CGI, but in your heart of hearts, you know FernGully was better.

Honest Trailers: ‘Transformers’

Jame Gumb — Thu, 17 May 2012 19:14:21 +0000

Honest Trailers is back, and this time, it’s personal. Well, not really.

Michael Bay’s Transformers is one of the most lucrative film franchises of all time. It’s also one of the most idiotic. Don’t get me wrong; hot chicks and robots are a great combo. But I’m not sure it’s worth sitting through two-and-a-half hours of product placement and Shia LaBeouf.

Don’t take my word for it. Let this Honest Trailer speak for itself.

Honest Trailers: ‘Titanic 3D’

Jame Gumb — Thu, 05 Apr 2012 19:25:49 +0000

Remember that stupid movie about a boat you hated back in 1997? Well it’s back, and this time, it’s in 3D. Somehow, this actually makes Phantom Menace 3D make sense by comparison.

Rather than shelling out $20 to fund James Cameron’s next submarine adventure, we suggest you just watch the Screen Junkies honest trailer, and see what Titanic 3D is all about without wasting another 3.5 hours of your life.

Honest Trailers: ‘Twilight’

Jame Gumb — Thu, 22 Mar 2012 18:45:45 +0000

In honor of the Twilight: Breaking Dawn: Part 2 trailer, which I’m sure you’re really excited about, we decided to revisit the roots of the series with our own honest trailer for Twilight. And just like the real deal, it’s got everything you’ve come to know and love about the series: the incessant voiceovers, the prolonged staring, the statutory rape, etc., etc. Plus, it points out Bella’s inability to pour ketchup, which I was unaware of.

If there’s a tween-age girl you’re looking to piss off, be sure and forward her this trailer…unless of course there’s a court order that prevents you from doing so, in which case, don’t worry about it.
