Ummm...Matrix is a WB movie but the studios have little to say about their trailers.  Each individual theater makes the choice of how to "build" their films.  This is why you see several in front of shorter movies and not so many in front of longer movies.  The prupose of trailers also give the theater owner easier timeslots.  As opposed to a film beginning at 12:03 it starts at 12:10 becuase of trailers.  Since each trailer is of a different length, the total time of each trailer is taken into account as well.
 
Now there are many situations where the "premiere" of a trailer occurs in conjuction of a film, ala the Adams Family with MC Hammer back in the day, but after the original release, the trailer was also attached to several other films.
