M.I.A. - Paper Planes

This one might kind of be a cheat. I am not posting very much about the song in particular, which can be heard in its excellent fullness here. I have been thinking about this specific use of the song a lot lately, and I think it has been used for evil under the following circumstances. Usually, a trailer is much, much worse than a movie. Here I am thinking of the idiotic trailer to the otherwise fantastic Children of Men.
ANYWAY.
The following movie trailer contains what is in my opinion one of the best uses of a song I've seen in recent movie trailers (I see them a lot, and also this isn't THAT recent). I went to see the movie, and hoped against hope that it would be as good as the trailer, and I was sorely disappointed.
But you cannot beat this trailer, I really believe this.
