Yeah, it might be cliche but still its friggin' Iron Man it needs to be played with that trailer.
Eh... I feel it's a bit kitsch but that's just me.

I'd like to add:
Kung Fu FIghting
Black Betty

Nothing wrong with a little kitsch.

I dislike this song but I seem to be the only person who does, seeing as though its in every movie trailer ever......

did anyone else notice both of these songs were extremely overused in just one movie and the same movie, it was pretty much 20 seconds of the first one then 20 seconds of the other and repeat and it basically felt like that for the whole movie.

There's plenty of those big classical music songs that get played over and over again in cinema. A few examples:

Mozart's Requiem


Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata

"All Star" by Smash Mouth would also be on this list. It just seems to pop up here and there in movie trailers, tv shows, or in commericals for tv shows.

Ah, you got mine...that was the only thing I had coming to mind. I recall a lot of trailers using that, and funnily enough, the song never makes it to the actual movies (most of the time).

I recall it most recently in Shaun of the Dead for the closing credits? It was a while back.

Possible new thread: You seen a trailer, and then went to the movie for something you saw in the trailer... and the movie comes and goes and it wasn't to be found? Isn't that garbage? Whether it be a song, a few scenes, or even, characters...

Probably just hit the editing room floor, but sometimes you feel gipped.

omfg I hate that so much or you hear a song in the movie and you go and buy the soundtrack and it's not on the friggin' soundtrack.
