I'm pretty sure I will be able to get the direct links to the trailers so people will be able to download them with out having to go to any site, other than this one.

Anyone who has seen the following is already spoiled for the movie:

Bushwhacked
Safe
Out of Gas
Ariel
War Stories
Trash
Heart of Gold
Objects in Space

I'm just saying.

sounds like a plan. just, whatever you do, use a decent encoding.

quicktime: requires a player most people are having anyway, works for all platforms, not the smallest size though

divx: codec available for all platforms, good size, yet some people dont "get it" and rather install a complete player like quicktime than understanding what a codec is and why you need it for your usual player to know what to do with all those bits and bytes

xvid: like divx, open source, yet trickier to get, as the official site only offers the source. binary releases can be found with google, depending on player no annoying logo like divx in the corner

wmv: nice if youre using windows, "searching" is a pain without a decent player, forces mac users to jump lots of hoops to play it

real media: my pet peeve. all the "look at how SMALL the file is" makes people forget about "look at how godawful the quality is and what piece of junk the frigging player is", not to mention you spend a lot of time cleaning up your system after installing this %§%"$%

so, depending on the software you have available i'd go with mov/quicktime. that's the one i cant do (though i would need to check if the newer players cant export a basic avi as quicktime, which would be quite neat). next on the list would be divx (only for easier to obtain codec), though i'd probably use xvid and just include the download link for the codec.

anyway, wmv is last resort and a great way to annoy mac users, while rm is a great way to annoy pretty much everyone.

Since I've never seen either of those films or their trailers I am assuming you mean that your score of 1 means next to no spoilers, right?

Thanks for that spoiler from someone who has not seen Buffy S6 yet.

Wow, I could be like one of those DVD editing machines that cuts out violence, sex and words like "poopy" from films.


As long as you don't cut out the swearing in Chinese from the trailer, I'm in. And I would prefer Divx encoded, but quicktime is good too.

Does anybody know what movies the trailer is playing with on Friday? I saw "Hitchhiker's Guide" in earlier posts, is this true? Any other ones?
