RE: towing a trailer behind my truck. Does anyone have any brilliant tips or tricks for backing up with a trailer and maneuvering it into tight spaces? I eventually get there, but not before lots of back-and-forth and "oops, should have turned the wheel the other way."

I'm getting a free sailboat, but it needs a trailer. The sailboat is a 70's era AMF Alcort Puffer. I'm wondering what type of trailer I need. I'm also hoping that the boat isn't so old that I won't be able to get a trailer for it. [more inside]

What creative process is used to make professional movie trailers and how long does it take? Do the people making the trailer see the whole movie and pick the clips they want? Who picks the music? Is a specialized company hired to make it? I want to know as much as you can tell me!

I'm looking for a folding bicycle trailer. That's a trailer that folds up and connects to a bicycle (though it coincidentally will be connected to a folding bicycle, so I guess it's a folding bicycle folding trailer). Anyway, the main thing is that it needs to fold up really small. Please point me to the smallest, when folded, bicycle trailer you know about. Thanks.

I am working on a series of promos for a national cable network and looking for some suggestions regarding music. They love the song from the Michael Mann's Miami Vice trailer: Numb/Encore by Linkin Park and Jay-Z. I'm looking for instrumental tracks with that feeling: serious, inspiring, melancholy, uplifting, energetic, modern, slick, etc. The promos involve beautiful slow-motion visuals with voiceover underneath. Thought I would turn to my favorite hive mind. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Ok, here's a tough one. Does anyone remember a movie trailer from the 1970s that showed an image of an x-ray skull -- scary enough in itself -- and then showed what appeared to be something dripping from the eye socket. Looking closer it was actually a woman wearing a billowing dress. Totally freaky image and I can't remember what movie it was for ... some horror flick for sure. Anyone remember this?

Where can I find a fitted utility trailer cover like this. $129 seems pretty rich for what you're getting, but I can't find any competing offerings out there. Google has been only frustrating on this hunt.

I am going on a trip tomorrow, and taking my friend's small tent trailer. I have been told that you need to adjust your pressure when towing, but my tires do not have any indication on them of what this should be. Is it higher or lower? By how much generally... 20psi, 10psi? Any help would be appreciated.

TrailerFilter: So I watched Anchorman the other night. Last night, at a different film, I saw the Anchorman trailer. In it, lots of things exciting things happen that don't appear in the film - Hero takes a bullet for Heroine, they have sex on the boss's desk, he tells her that he wants to be King Of Austria and that she sounds like a mental person. What's going on there then?
