Superbowl Movie Promos

In America they have this thing called American football (in which foot and ball rarely meet) and in this sport they have thing called The Superbowl, which is apparently kind of a big deal even though nobody in the rest of the world really gives a shit. In this Soup-er Bowl thing, they have advertisements because as we know, everything on earth these days is just a vehicle to deliver advertisements to people...including, irony of ironies this website. And apparently, these advertisements, like the Soup-er Bowl and American Football, are yes, you've guessed it, kind of a big deal. So now we are about to step all over our point like a monster through Manhattan and bring you some of the movie-relates TV spots that offer the first look at some of the biggest movies of 2009.

GI JOE

This movie looks truly awful and is directed by Stephen Sommers who couldn't direct traffic.

TRANSFORMERS 2: REVENGE OF THE UNNECESSARY SUBTITLE

Why is this trailer cut to make it feel like a horror movie?Wasn't this supposed to be fun? And why is there so little Megan Fox? It all points to another movie in which nobody knows what the fuck is going on in any of the action sequences. Nor does anybody over 15 care.

ANGELS & DEMONS

Well The Da Vinci Code was one of the most boring, poorly adapted and downright silly thrillers of the decade years so we can't wait for the prequel Angels & Demons. The plot summary goes something like this and then...and then...and then...and then...and then...and then. Much like The Da Vinci Code

LAND OF THE LOST

This must have been an easy pitch. Will Ferrell goes back in time with loads of CGI! Comedy is usually directly proportional to the CGI FX budget. Just ask Evan Almighty. What, he's not a real person? Nobody told me. Well of course I never saw the film. Nobody did. We rest our case. Though Ferrell might save this...if he's allowed be the star and not the CGI.

STAR TREK

Or Star Trek 90210 as we like to call it. This could actually be good but the cast look like they just stepped off the set of California Dreams (with the exception of Simon Pegg).

YEAR ONE
Finally a decent spot. The pitch for this must have been similar to Land Of The Lost. Judd Apatow's stable go back in time with hardly any CGI - because hey Mr Studio Exec, we saw Evan Almighty and boy did it suck!
