plasticbag : Trajan is the Movie Font - Entertaining video that reveals the lack of creativity among designers working in movie posters and DVD covers. Although, you know, if people understand Trajan to mean 'movie' then why confuse them?

plasticbag : The trailer for new JJ Abrams movie is pretty gripping... - God knows if it's called 1-18-08 or if this is a big preview / teaser for a real name. No clue whether the trailer represents the film or if it's just a fragment or a sideshow. Very interesting. Nice bit of marketing. Clever.
Rod Begbie : Apple - Trailers - 01-18-08 - Quite possibly the best movie "teaser" ever. No title, no cast list, no clue as to WTF is going on... But dagnammit, I want to see the film! [via] #
