Compare and Contrast: the trailers for Tropic Thunder and Tunnel Rats
Wednesday, August 06, 2008
One’s a definite comedy, the other\s supposed to be a war drama. One’s directed by Ben Stiller, the other by Uwe Boll. Both use the war in Vietnam for their story purposes. Even with that shared story connection, why do the starts of the trailers for both of these wildly different films look the same? Is there really only just one song that gets used over and over again for any movie that’s set in Vietnam during the war?
Judge for yourself:
The trailer for Tropic Thunder versus the trailer for Tunnel Rats.
I guess that song is telling the truth, there really is something happening here, but what it is I’m not entirely clear.
