I hunted the original version of Trailer Town a couple of months ago, but today they have released a major new version, which I've been testing for a couple of days and it's completely awesome. My favorite new feature is the calendar, which allows me to stay updated and hyped with trailers at the same time!

@mbavio Thanks Martin, and I’m glad you like the Film Calendar! Since putting up our beta site in January we’ve learned a lot. We took everything back to the drawing board and focused our efforts on making version 1.0 the site we’ve been dreaming about. The best place to watch movie trailers has always been in a movie theater. But obviously we’re all seeing them – usually for the first time – on the internet now. My go-to place for watching them online was YouTube, and while YouTube is great at online video, we started to feel like we wanted more out of an online trailer-watching experience. So Trailer Town is the answer to what we wanted. We try to treat each trailer not simply as a video, but as an important part of the film it’s previewing, and as a cinematic entity that deserves some theatricality! Beyond that, we’re on a mission to add as many trailers as possible so you can always start a trailer search at Trailer Town. And we’re stoked about our Latest Trailers feed, where we’re posting the new stuff for everyone to see right when it comes out. So that’s that! Let us know if you have any suggestions or questions. I’ll be here all day. We really hope you have fun with Trailer Town. 🍻

Been following this one since it was just an idea. The new version looks and feels amazing. My absolute go to for movie trailers. The new calendar is really useful! Good job everyone!

@heymichaelway Thanks Michael! I'm glad you like the film calendar. We worked really hard on getting the content in for it. Next stop is getting every trailer ever!

When I try going full screen on a trailer this is all I get - . I'm using Chrome Version 47.0.2526.73 (64-bit) on OSX 10.10.5.

@arunpattnaik Thanks for reporting that bug. I found that in some cases, when full screen was activated, Chrome was resetting our “fade in” animation for the video but not re-*running* it (so it was stuck at zero opacity in your case). Should be fixed now!
