There is a Meedio/MyHTPC plugin that does this. I would enjoy seeing an easy plugin structure for Myth, it could make a big difference.

I just thought of this idea and wanted to share it before I forgot it again.

What if there were a way from within myth to look through the program
guide, and on the information screen, download and watch the trailer
from it if there is one found?  Or additionally, have a plugin that is
in the media library that basically says "watch trailers" where it
will list off all the movie trailers it finds on some website and if
you select one it will download and watch it. (kinda like the
video-on-demand trailers on comcast).

It's just an idea, I don't have the time to implement it or anything,
I just wanted to put it out there in case there was anyone thinking
"what could make myth even better?"

ps - I don't know if there is a particular website to list off movie
trailers, but I'm sure one must exist. Whether or not they mind us
scraping their page and downloading their trailers is a different
story...
