— Warner Bros. Earns Most Nominations By Studio as Universal, Fox, Lionsgate and Disney Round Out The Top 5 —

— Top Nominations by Vendor Include Ignition Creative, Buddha Jones, AV Squad, Trailer Park, Zealot, and Aspect Ratio —

(Beverly Hills, CA, May 6, 2014) — The Golden Trailer Awards, the entertainment industry’s best and most fun-filled celebration devoted to the year’s most outstanding achievements in motion picture marketing announced today the nominees in the 15th annual competition that has emerged as one of the most anticipated events acknowledging the work of film marketers and companies that create movie trailers, commercials and posters worldwide.  Evelyn Brady-Watters, Golden Trailer Awards Executive Director, announced the 2014 nominees today along with the show’s executive producer Monica Brady.  The event will take place on Friday, May 30 at the Saban Theater in Beverly Hills.

The Golden Trailer Awards are presented to nominees in 70 diverse categories that range from serious to lighthearted, including Best Summer 2014 Blockbuster Trailer Award,  Trashiest Trailer, Most Romantic Trailer, Best In Show, and the Golden Fleece Award, the statuette that goes to the best trailer for the ‘not best’ movie.  Only 17 of the top honors are presented “live” on stage at the celebratory show, which routinely sells out.

This year’s competition drew a record number 1,364 total submissions, up over 160 from last year. The awards recognize the best of the best in the world of developing and creating the most memorable marketing materials, including the most impactful movie trailers in the business.

Warner Bros leads this year’s nominations by studio with 51 for films including Gravity, The Lego Movie, Godzilla, and The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug, among others. In second place by studio is Universal (including Focus Features), with a combined total of 32 nominations for work on projects including A Million Ways to Die in the West, Lone Survivor, The Purge and Despicable Me 2, among other titles. 20th Century Fox and Fox Searchlight’s marketing teams combined for 31 nominations for their work on films including The Secret Life of Walter Mitty, Rio 2, and How To Train Your Dragon 2 (Dreamworks), among others. Lionsgate received 30 nominations and Disney rounded out the top 5 with 23 nominations.

On the agency side, Ignition Creative worked on 52 of this year’s nominees (8 Trailers and TV Spots and 43 Poster nominees)  Trailer Powerhouses: Buddha Jones earned 24 noms, AV Squad tallied 23, and Trailer Park has credits on 18 nominees. Aspect ratio and Zealot Productions rounds out the top 5 vendors with 13 nominations each.

Celebrity and industry judges participating in this year’s awards show include Chris Buck, the co-director of the blockbuster animated smash Frozen, Adam Driver, who was recently announced as a member of the cast of the new Star Wars feature and is a series regular on HBO’s hit series “Girls,” Doug Ellin, creator of the HBO phenomenon “Entourage,” film and television actress Debi Mazar,  “Raising Hope” star Garret Dillahunt,  Divergent director Neil Burger, and Snow White and the Huntsman writer Evan Daugherty, among many others.

Explained Brady-Watters, “Any movie marketer will tell you, the most important part of their campaign is a powerful or memorable trailer. It is one of the key defining factors when it comes to teasing and influencing audiences as they make their decision to attend a movie on opening weekend or not. Just a few short years ago, trailers were experienced exclusively in theaters. Today,  they are stand alone entertainment experiences that are eagerly anticipated in theaters even as they drive billions upon billions of streams online to countless film fans all across the globe. This event is dedicated to celebrating, recognizing and rewarding the extraordinary and talented artists, editors, executives, and visual effects and animation wizards who work so tirelessly to market their film magic to audiences worldwide. ”

It shows how out of it I was in trying to be in it, acknowledging that I was out of it to myself, and then thinking, “Okay, how do I stop being out of it? Well, I get some legitimate illogical narrative ideas” — some novel, you know?

So I decided on three writers that I might be able to option their material and get some producer, or myself as producer, and then get some writer to do a screenplay on it, and maybe make a movie.

And so the three projects were “Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep,” “Naked Lunch” and a collection of Bukowski. Which, in 1975, forget it — I mean, that was nuts. Hollywood would not touch any of that, but I was looking for something commercial, and I thought that all of these things were coming.

There would be no Blade Runner if there was no Ray Bradbury. I couldn’t find Philip K. Dick. His agent didn’t even know where he was. And so I gave up.

I was walking down the street and I ran into Bradbury — he directed a play that I was going to do as an actor, so we know each other, but he yelled “hi” — and I’d forgot who he was.

So at my girlfriend Barbara Hershey’s urging — I was with her at that moment — she said, “Talk to him! That guy really wants to talk to you,” and I said “No, fuck him,” and keep walking.

But then I did, and then I realized who it was, and I thought, “Wait, he’s in that realm, maybe he knows Philip K. Dick.” I said, “You know a guy named—” “Yeah, sure — you want his phone number?”

My friend paid my rent for a year while I wrote, because it turned out we couldn’t get a writer. My friends kept on me about, well, if you can’t get a writer, then you write.”
~ Hampton Fancher

“That was the most disappointing thing to me in how this thing was played. Is that I’m on the phone with you now, after all that’s been said, and the fundamental distinction between what James is dealing with in these other cases is not actually brought to the fore. The fundamental difference is that James Franco didn’t seek to use his position to have sex with anyone. There’s not a case of that. He wasn’t using his position or status to try to solicit a sexual favor from anyone. If he had — if that were what the accusation involved — the show would not have gone on. We would have folded up shop and we would have not completed the show. Because then it would have been the same as Harvey Weinstein, or Les Moonves, or any of these cases that are fundamental to this new paradigm. Did you not notice that? Why did you not notice that? Is that not something notable to say, journalistically? Because nobody could find the voice to say it. I’m not just being rhetorical. Why is it that you and the other critics, none of you could find the voice to say, “You know, it’s not this, it’s that”? Because — let me go on and speak further to this. If you go back to the L.A. Times piece, that’s what it lacked. That’s what they were not able to deliver. The one example in the five that involved an issue of a sexual act was between James and a woman he was dating, who he was not working with. There was no professional dynamic in any capacity.

~ David Simon
