The Super Bowl was yesterday.
Congratulations to the Saints, the New Orleans National Football League team!
American football is essentially despised compared to the other football around the world. In the US, we call that other football soccer. Upwards to 90 million people watch the Super Bowl; in comparison, the 2006 World Cup final had more than 715 million people watching it. You can see why people around the world don’t understand why Americans call a sport football that is not football.
What is not despised around the world, something we can all agree on, are the new trailers that Hollywood generates specifically for a Super Bowl spot!
In my opinion, the Super Bowl ads this year were lacking something fierce. It was easy to see where these companies had cut back their marketing spending in a tough recession. Hollywood though did take the time to produce a couple quality trailers for forthcoming films! Here they are, with more on the second page!
Robin Hood
More after the jump!
The Last Airbender
Prince of Persia
Alice In Wonderland
I was sad we didn't see another Iron Man 2 trailer. Other than that, I thought these were great selections for the Super Bowl.
What do you think about these newest additions? Do you think the return of Ridley Scott directing Russell Crowe in an epic film can match Gladiator? Can Jake Gyllenhaal convince people he is Persian? Can M. Night Shyamalan get his A-game back? Will people see a 3D Johnny Depp as the Mad Hatter?
Questions! To be answered in 2010!
