When it comes to trailers, there is a lot of thought that goes behind making them.  How do we make a lasting impression? How do we create buzz around the film? Are we showing too much of the movie or not enough? Well, for the people behind the new film BATTLE: LOS ANGELES, the solution is simple; show 4 seconds.  No more, no less.

This little snippet comes from the full length trailer that was shown at Comic-Con.  The film stars Aaron Eckhart and Michelle Rodriguez.  The movie takes place in Los Angeles during an alien attack. It’s like Black Hawk Down meets Cloverfield.  Looks interesting, I definitely would like to see more. At least more than 4 seconds.

BATTLE: LOS ANGELES hits theaters March 11th 2011.
