    "This trailer was everything. The way they mixed 'We Will Rock You' with the lyrics to 'Bohemian Rhapsody' was just gorgeous. The interspersed comedic moments, the snappy clips of their concerts, and then towards the end of the trailer you get the powerful lyrics of 'We Are The Champions' and Freddie's iconic rising fist pump at Live Aid...just goosebumps."

    "The first teaser trailer that featured 'The Immigrant Song.' It's so eerie and effective because there's no dialogue, only dark shots of the movie that switch from one to the next in time with the music. That trailer haunted me for years — in a good way! It was so impactful."

    "Ravel’s piano piece 'Une Barque Sur l' Océan' sets the dreamy, romantic mood of the trailer perfectly. There were lots of choice cuts from poignant scenes that accurately portrayed what the film was about— the plaza, the dance party, the Italian countryside, Elio’s father. The trailer hints at the beautiful but bittersweet romance between Elio and Oliver, but leaves you wanting more. Finally, the overlay of Sufjan Steven’s 'Mystery of Love' neatly ties together the whole thing. Great film, great trailer!"

    "The trailer is ELECTRIFYING. It made me want to quit my job and go on the road with Bradley Cooper. I am ashamed to admit that I wasn't a Lady Gaga fan until I saw this trailer, but now I'm a die hard Little Monster. I will never feel the same high I felt when I saw this one for the first time."

    "Specifically, the one with Frank Sinatra in the background. Something about it fit absolutely perfectly, and even years later, I’ll catch myself watching it just because it’s so satisfying. Even though the movie itself had some drawbacks, that trailer did it justice and got people’s attention."

    "For me it has to be the third trailer for this one. That trailer was so beautiful and made me so excited to see it. Unfortunately, I think that trailer caused the main problem with the film. It was SO epic and set the expectations that the film couldn't possibly meet. It's still my favorite trailer of all time."

    "I think the trailer was so powerful at the time because of the thrill of watching a new Star Wars movie. Nonetheless it is edited beautifully and doesn’t give away too much but still promises so much excitement. It was a sigh of relief for people who were so disappointed with the prequels and hesitant to watch a new trilogy."
