Top 10 Movie Trailers Of The Week

I am not the biggest cycling fan. In fact, after puberty kicked in, the only time I have ever been excited about a bike was when Olympian Victoria Pendleton posed naked on one for the front cover of Observer Sport Monthly.

At least that was until I saw Danny MacAskill. The show-off Scot became a YouTube sensation last year when his mate Dave Sowerby filmed the mechanic doing what could only be described as parkour on two wheels around Edinburgh. 

The video has attracted almost 22 million views and prompted 'Danny Megaskill' or 'Taggart', as he is imaginatively called (presumably because he is skillful and Scottish), to give up his day job to focus on riding full-time.

And it has certainly paid off for the 24-year-old, with Red Bull sponsoring him to do another short film, again filmed by mate Sowerby, called 'Way Back Home'.

The short film has attracted thousands of shares on Twitter, Facebook and the blogosphere, putting it at the top of this week's movie trailers list (although, technically, it should not even qualify).

It documents his journey from where he currently lives in Edinburgh, all the way to where he grew up in Dunvegan, on the Isle of Skye.

Harry Potter Predictably Heads The Hottest Movie Trailers Of The Week

Lock up your children because He Who Must Not Be Named is back.

Will no one save us from this evil and grotesque menace hell bent on world domination?

But we'll talk about Justin Bieber later, because the latest Harry Potter movie is out this weekend and predictably casting a spell over this week's Viral Video Chart for the most shared movie trailers.

In fact, the teen wizard's magic wand is so powerful, Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows Part 1 has managed to not only bag top spot, but also the number nine spot too. The greedy wizard.

Thankfully, there are another eight spots to fill. Unfortunately, one of these is filled by Justin Bieber. Incredibly, the creepy, dead-eyed Canadian puppet's new movie - not due to be released till next February - was at number one last week, just in case you were not dillusioned with humanity enough already.

But thanks to its imminent release, Harry Potter once again reigns supreme.

Justin Bieber’s Never Say Never Trailer Pips Harry Potter – Now That’s Black Magic

Personally, the only thing that I can think worse than watching a movie which documents Justin Bieber’s rise to fame is a film which documents Justin Bieber’s rise to fame in 3D.

The thought of seeing those cold Chucky-like eyes and creepy hairstyle coming out of the screen is enough to make me have sleepless nights.

But, then again, I am not a 13-year-old girl. Because if I was, I would not be prattling on about which movie trailers are currently topping the Viral Video Chart over the last seven days, I would be one of the thousands sharing the trailer of his new movie on Twitter and Facebook while gawking at a picture of a poster of my hero his wall. The film is not even due out till February.

He is even more popular than Harry Potter, although the wizard seems to at least catching the teenage pop star up looking at the stats from the last 24 hours.

Other films that make up the top five – Saw 3D, Jackass 3D and Paranormal Activity 2 - have already been released.
