The Twilight Saga: Eclipse Trailer Review
In my opinion? Horrible.
I know, the Cullens weren't in it and that could be a contributing factor as to why I hated it, but that's not all. Most of the trailer was scenery. It was mountain-shots, meadow-shots, the beach, etc. I love David Slade's twitpics throughout the process, but I felt like the trailer was nothing. Shane Dawson agreed:
Another thing, Bryce Dallas Howard as Victoria? I'm a huge Rachelle fan and Bryce is not my favorite person, but even in the trailer she wasn't so good. She's supposed to be angry here:
She looks scared! Victoria would never show fear. While the other cast members had months to dive into their characters, she had weeks! Rachelle knew Victoria inside and out. She seeks revenge. She doesn't care what baggage comes with it. It's blind, malicious revenge. Seeing Bryce as Victoria is like when you tap someone on the shoulder at a Halloween Party and it was not who you thought it was. It's awkward. You have to remind yourself that it's a new Victoria. It's a little confusing as well. .jpg)
And to go back to the point that it was all talking or scenery (oh, and add a shirtless Taylor Lautner for good measure)! WHAT THE HECK!? Randomly shirtless! Okay, we get that he's buff and even TwiMoms are in love with the now legal hunk, but come on! Put some drama into the trailer. It doesn't even look like a movie. If you didn't have enough edited and done with, Summit, don't post anything! We can wait! Besides, you posted this crap early, so you weren't timing with the Remember Me premiere! I get it, it's a lot of action, you switched editors, directors, actresses, but please! Don't rush on this. Push off the date if you have to! We can wait! We'll be pissed, but we can wait!
The one thing I did like: the Volturi. Didn't expect to see them! It was nice! Dakota Fanning's eye shadow was a little weird, but other than that...
Didn't post the trailer as you can see, but click here if you are one of the few who has not seen it.

If you don't agree with me, cool, just be civil and intelligent.

So. I'm glad I'm not the only one who hated this trailer. I thought it was more like a fan video than an official trailer.
It was dull...and sadly Jasper-less. His backstory was ingenious in the book; I was hoping for even a tiny glimps of Jasper or even the newborns.
I hope the full movie is more exciting than the pathetic snipet we got...
I agree! I was hoping for a glimpse of the training. I was expecting it, actually! They spoiled EVERYTHING in the New Moon trailers! Again, I don't think they finished much of the movie and were scrambling to put something out, but come on!!! >:[
They could have waited to put something out. I think Twilight fans would much rather have a well-made, interesting trailer a little later than random scenery shots earlier.
And yes, the New Moon trailers basically showed the entire movie, which I why I am going to try to stay away from as many Eclipse trailers as possible. Even though we all know what happens, I don't want to be as spoiled as I was for NM.
