Honest Trailers

There's no shortage of parody to be found on YouTube, but I can't think of a more winning concept than "Honest Trailers". It captures the spirit of the classic voiceovers dude from the '80s while skewering all manner of mainstream garbage.

And after so many years, it still hasn't gotten old. For me, Jon Bailey is the secret weapon; he makes for an excellent Epic Voice-over Guy, channeling Don LaFontaine with plenty of room for his own humorous touches. It doesn't matter whether they're taking jabs at some low-hanging fruit like "Armageddon" or a bulletproof classic like "The Empire Strikes Back", it's always funny. And when they're really trashing a movie, it is glorious (*cough* "Suicide Squad" *cough*).

Few YouTube shows are consistently this entertaining.

10/10

The honest trailers of today may have lost the brilliance of the initial ones....but we're still here

but in all honesty...bring back the voice guy that came after the very first...or was it the third...i think it was the third

or was it the one that did it...went away...came back then went away again

i think so...yeah...bring him back

and how come this voice guy has been doing it soo long....all this while...retire bro!!...

we need another voice guy.

As far as YouTube movie satire goes, this series lands the perfect balance between insightful satire and nitpicking. Every episode shows a true love of the movies, a true requisite for making a parody that resonates with the audience and hits the right points. The presentation of the series is very authentic to the style of old trailers, with a kinetic pace that presents everything in rapid succession for maximum impact and flow. Not to mention the graphics are always very professional looking to match the original movies!

Fun etertaining .... It is a nice and old series on yt that is perfect

They only had one good video, the phantom menace (and maybe Kingdom of the crystal skull) but that's it.
