One thing I learned pretty quickly doing media, is that the way you edit something can change the whole feel of it. Slowing shots down, or speeding them up. Change an angle. Even something as simple as changing the music over a piece of film can change the whole mood of it. I found these trailers online a while ago (promotion pieces for an editing studio) that exemplified that - making the Shining into a romantic comedy, that sort of thing. And tonight, I found this. Genius, sheer hillarious genius!

Oh and you can find the original trailers that wowed me so much here. The one for West Side Story is the mad kind of brilliance.
