This is a community for posting and sharing trailers and teasers for upcoming film, television and video game premieres. The goal is to provide subscribers a curated feed of trailers for UPCOMING media. General-purpose posts about movies, television and games are better suited for other communities around the Lemmyverse. This place is just for trailers.

Rules

  1. All posts must be trailers or teasers; not full movies, not trailers for trailers, and not clips of popular scenes. Meta posts from mod staff are OK, but should be kept to a minimum.
  2. No fan-made trailers or remixes.
  3. Trailers for upcoming content only. Do not spam the community with trailers for media that has already been released.
  4. Link to official channels for trailers whenever possible (ie: the YouTube accounts of each film's studio or distribution company); avoid linking to videos from media outlets that function as aggregators / re-posters if you can.
  5. Post titles should follow formatting guidelines: "Media Name (release year, relevant creator credit)". Creator credits should be directors for films and games, showrunners for television series. Other details such as starring actors, writers, production studios, etc can be added to the post description.
  6. Don't be a jerk.

What did I just watch?

No, really...

I have no idea. Was it a trailer for hentai? Several chicks were flirting with a dude but then... oh my god: a dude with chainsaw-arms riding a six-eyed shark on the wall of a skyscraper? An angel and a samurai fighting a blood-puking capitalist pig? Explosions?

What. The. Heck.

It's a pretty wild anime. If you get bad feeling by just watching this trailer never watch Chainsaw Man.

That’s a legit question.

It’s an OVA film for an anime series (not hentai) about the spirits of things that people fear (like chainsaws, sharks and capitalism) being able to possess/inhabit human beings and turn them into crazy looking monsters (ala Spider-Man’s Venom) as the action calls for it. The possesion-for-battle trope is pretty hot in anime right now (see Dan Da Dan, Jujutsu Kaisen, Kaiju #7, etc).

I considered whether to even post this one as it seems to break the trailer format a bit, forgoing the preview of what story is being told and instead just presenting some contextual clues that existing fans will recognize and a ton of mind boggling editing. The trailer for Mononoke the movie was very similar (and, coincidentally, one of the most gruelingly frenetic movies I’ve seen in a long time, and not in an enjoyable way).

So it’s a TV show movie. The creators may have decided to disregard the interest of non-fans when they put this together, which really makes it borderline of-interest to a general audience. In the end, it does legitimately look neat, so I figured why not?
