the wolfman resembles max payne

Universal have released a new The Wolfman trailer which starts Benicio Del Toro and the great Anthony Hopkins, it’s been up for a couple days now and I’ve been watching the Internet comments about it and thus I have to come to a conclusion, movie studios are finally starting to realize just how important music selection is in trailers. The only problem is Universal clearly ripped of Marilyn Manson and Mark Wahlberg at the same time, a feat only Matt Damon could pull off.

How you may ask? I will show you, below you will see the trailer for Mark Wahlberg’s 2008 flop Max Payne, now while watching take notes on the music and its pacing.

Now watch the new Wolfman trailer and you will instantly notice the music/pacing similarities.

Now let’s just hope the Wolfman doesn’t have the same fate as Max, a good trailer that led to a crappy movie.
