I saw the trailer for "Troy" too, it looks promising. I just LOVED seeing all those ships in the beginning.
I watched the Punisher trailer online, and I have to say it looks like it might be pretty decent. Thomas Jane bulked up for the role and appears to fit the part now.
I love watching older film trailers, from the mid-80s and earlier. They're fucking terrible and usually hilarious as a result. Even fantastic movies look horrible when you go back and watch old trailers. Check out the trailers for the original "Alien" (NOT the new trailer for the re-release) or the old Star Wars and Indiana Jones movies and you'll see what I'm talking about.
I think trailers are pretty fucking good now for the most part, they seem to have become something of an art sometime in the late 80s and early 90s. My only complaint these days is that too many trailers give WAY too much away.
For example, in the Matrix Revolutions trailer you see Neo with the cloth over his eyes, so you can kind of guess what's coming. Same thing with Agent Sands in "Once Upon a Time in Mexico" come to think of it...you see him stumbling around with blood coming out from under his sunglasses. I don't want to have important elements of the climax spoiled for me months before I even see the movie.
