The Star Wars: The Force Awakens coming attraction (see above) had the hottest start of the year, notching 58.2 million views in its first five days, but ultimately it was Fifty Shades of Grey's four-month head start that proved decisive in the race to be the most viewed trailer of 2014.
The Fifty Shades trailer recorded 93 million YouTube views since its release on July 24 to become the most watched preview of the year, according to Zefr, a YouTube data and marketing company.

The Star Wars: Episode VII trailer was No. 2 with 81 million YouTube views since its release on Nov. 28. The first episode in the third Star Wars trilogy -- the first since George Lucas sold Lucasfilm to Disney -- arrives in theatres on Dec. 18, 2015.
Avengers: Age of Ultron finished in third with 78 million views.
