https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TAFDHyH8buQ The actual movie wasn't that great but Red Eye pulling a bait-and-switch as a romantic comedy was brilliant. The Muppets did the same thing with the fake trailer for Green With Envy and it was one of the first times I've been genuinely surprised by a trailer in a long, long time: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6CloKbXtD28

I don't know if it's the same way for everyone else in the rest of the world, but in America we have a somewhat unique way of advertising foreign films: we completely obscure the fact that the film is in another language since people have a weird aversion to subtitles. It's kind of interesting from a production standpoint to see how they edit it (Jean-Pierre Jeunet's Micmacs looks way more goofy because the trailer is just all the non-vocal slapstick and weird side characters, Pan's Labyrinth used two minutes of effects shots that made it look like it was a pure fantasy movie and not a historical drama with a few fantasy sequences) but I feel sorry for all the guys at Blockbuster who had to talk down the millionth angry soccer mom about how the movie wasn't in American.
