Trailer #3 TV Spot: Up in the Air
Another month, another trailer for Jason Reitman’s Up in the Air courtesy of Apple (Update: ok, factually this is a TV spot that ran during the season finale of Mad Men, but clocking in at 2 minutes it still feels like a trailer to me). I’ve liked each successive trailer for this thing less and less – and the less I like the trailers, the more convinced I am the film is going to win the Oscar.
Here we’ve got the same Iggy Pop musical cue from the last trailer, plus the Sad Brad Smith song that I wish was a person so I could punch it in the kidneys until it pees blood. Thankfully we’ll be spared Sad Brad’s soulful yearnings at the Oscars because the song has been disqualified.
This version of the trailer has lots of breathless pull quotes, though oddly the publications are named and not the critic.
Up in the Air starring George Clooney, Vera Farmiga and Anna Kendrick opens in limited release on December 4 with an expansion on December 11. It goes wide on Christmas. Stream it after the jump.
