My method

I don't know how the others are doing it, but here's my method. Watch the movie twice: once with the sound muted, once with the picture muted, in final cut pro, and cut all the good bits out. I noticed that if I watched it with both the audio and the video, I just ended up watching the film and forgetting to cut out the good bits. My theory is that trailers are just compliations of the best visuals and the best soundbites from a film anyway, and they almost never actually sync up, they're just held together by music and excitement.
