Overall, the trailer received 82 million views in 2012 with two other trailers taking the eight and tenth positions on the list.

Movies dominate the rest of YouTube's Top 10 trailer Leaderboard of 2012 with The Dark Knight Rises and Skyfall taking the third and fourth positions behind Black Ops II. TedThe Hunger Games also made the list along with NBC's Revolution, the only television show to make the list.
