Movie making changes drastically decade-to-decade but so too does advertising. "Flight of the Navigator" is a film from my childhood. Below I'm posting the original trailer from 1986 and a fan-made trailer from 2011. It's striking how different they look. It feels like a different movie. The amount of info given on the plot, the pacing, the tension. Trailers used to give highlights and focus more on the type of movie. Now the goal seems to be more to take a full-length movie and make it into a mini-movie.

Anyway, I thought it was pretty cool to compare.
