7:20AM Defamer Hollywood | The heartiest of Defamer congratulations go out today to the marketers behind
The Dark Knight and
Iron Man, whose savvy trailers have now captivated
legions of inhaler-clutching fanboys and the highly discriminating eyes of those judging the
Golden Trailer Awards. The films claimed the top prizes in the Action and Summer Blockbuster categories respectively at last night’s ceremony at the Orpheum; other notable winners included
Tropic Thunder (Comedy),
No Country For Old Men (Drama),
Atonement (Romance) and, in a miracle of better-late-than-never recognition,
The Assassination of Jesse James took home the evening’s Best Voice-Over hardware. Even the Weinsteins didn’t go home empty-handed, as their teaser for
Awake won the Golden Fleece prize for best false advertsing. Way to go, Harvey; we hope you can remember where you put the key to the trophy case. [
