Clerks 2 Trailers: An Update!

  • Seems we’ll see a very polished trailer attached to Scary Movie 4 prints next month, but Kevin promises some more down-home style trailers for us internet folk. Here’s the update:
The “Clerks II” teaser I showed at WizardWorld L.A.? That version’s no longer going at the head of “Scary Movie 4”. Weinstein Co. tested another teaser that test much higher, so that’s the one you’ll see on April 14th. I’m torn, because it’s a little too “trailer-y” for my tastes, but since it’s going at the head of a mainstream flick, I guess that makes the most sense. Meanwhile, we’ll keep doing teaser and trailers that’re more my speed over at the “Clerks II” website.

I watched the final version of the “Clerks II” trailer last night – the one that’s going up in front of “Scary Movie 4”. And while it’s a little main-streamy for my tastes, it’s makes sense for the placement: “SM4” will have a killer opening weekend, so that’s a lot of eyes on April 14th, the lion’s share of whom have never heard of our flick yet. Weinstein Co.’s theory is give the mainstream audience a mainstream version of the trailer. Meanwhile, over at the “Clerks II” website, I’ll throw up a trailer that’s more in line with the way I’d personally sell the flick (i.e. – under-sell) to run April 14th. This way Harvey and Bob are happy and I’m happy.
