I came across this trailer and was struck by how slow paced and detailed it was compared to trailers nowadays. It’s hard to imagine this was a good trailer, but it must have been, to help lure people into the theatre.

I also thought: where is the voice of the GUY who does all the trailers now? 🙂 It does seem like most movie trailers now are done by the same person. It is certainly a different voice than this one.

Check out the original trailer for Star Wars and see. (Also, notice the title font for Star Wars is different).
