Top 10 Trailers of 2012

4. A Good Day To Die Hard

http://youtu.be/riIaTrjyGZ4 So maybe I€™m just a big fan of the Die Hard franchise, but I thought this trailer was just awesome. It gave me everything I was hoping for in a Die Hard trailer: a €œyippee-kay-yay€, some explosions, Bruce Willis kicking ass, a nice random piece of motorcycle chick cheesecake, a couple of funny lines, and more Bruce Willis kicking ass. But all of that was pretty much to be expected. What really did it for me with this trailer, and the reason it€™s on this list, is the music. It just works so well to set the mood, acts as a punchline for several of the jokes, and builds to such a nice crescendo as the trailer reaches its own climax. The music is one of the most memorable aspects of the trailer and definitely the thing that makes it so effective.
