Welcome to the 10 Best Trailers of 2010. This is the 10th Annual List dating back to 2001 and my sixth year bringing it exclusively to JoBlo.com. If you visit the Trailers Page frequently, you should know my tastes quite well. Keep coming back for the rest of the year and we’ll slowly be rolling out the Top 10 one by one. Sometimes great trailers make great movies and other times they make you see awful movies. Don’t hesitate to strike back below if you think I must be completely nuts. (Also, keep in mind that some trailers that you’ve seen this year were on last year’s list.)
# 7 INCEPTION
Following up to a good (but not great) teaser from last year, INCEPTION came slamming through with a powerful new trailer that tricked the eyes and stymied the mind. There’s a ton going on here and yet nothing is really being revealed. Sure, after you’ve seen the movie two or three times the spoilers are apparent – but, if you’ve never seen the movie this trailer still leaves you very much in the dark. This trailer made me believe I was going to see a much different movie than I got… and I was still ecstatic with the experience.
