Some youngster on another site this was posted on asked who did the song used in the trailer. Maybe the owners of the rights decided it was time to get a new audience.

This is at least the third trailer I’ve seen in the last month that uses Zeppelin. I think euansmith is right on the money. Lots and lots of money.

School of Rock I believe was the first film Led Zeppelin allowed to use their music, but I seem to remember that it was an exception the band made at the time. Obviously things have changed a lot now. Cameron Crowe desperately wanted to use “Stairway to Heaven” in Almost Famous but the band turned him down, I bet he was pissed when he heard their music in School of Rock.

i believe Jimmy Page has softened his stance on that sort of thing. i won’t be so cynical to say it’s all about the money… i do think he’s just given in to the inevitability of it all.

I said in the other Thor thread, in case you didn’t see that, the inspiration for this movie is Big Trouble in Little China.
And damn, am I ever here for that!

I can’t believe that’s Cate Blanchett. She looks awesome.
Well I suppose she always does but she looks awesome in a particular way I’ve never seen before. Maybe it’s just the jet black hair but whatever it is it’s awesome.

That was the third time I’ve watched the trailer, and I finally went to see what part Cate was playing because I did not recognize her.
Looks good.

If Led Zeppelin was ever going to sell out by licensing that song they couldn’t have found a more appropriate property to sell out for.

I didn’t know there was going to be a BTiLC influence - consider me SOLD and SOLD again!
Thor as Jack Burton? I could live with that.
