This year the list of movie trailers that will be shown are from some of the most highly anticipated movies of the year in Captain America: The First Avenger, Thor and Super 8. Studios waiting until this very day to show of some of their summer blockbusters is kinda like a right of passage given the importance of the day. The movie trailers alone are the most talked about aspect of Super Bowl Sunday and for good reason.
We watch what seems like a 4 hour game due to the schedules TV timeouts, long commercial breaks and even longer halftime during the Super Bowl. The game features two teams that the majority of the country is forced to watch leading to no real stake in the game unless you are a betting man. When those timeouts due occur there's no running to the restroom, kitchen runs or smoke breaks. Everyones eyes are glued to the tube as if it was 4th and goal on the 1 yard line. The anticipation of what movie trailer will be shown next is on a level of excitement that speaks volumes. Your eyes light up as the words "The Following PREVIEW Has Been Approved For Appropriate Audiences" flashes across the screen. The anticipation becomes greater as the movie studio's logo appears. It's a movie trailer and you couldn't be more excited.
That's the feeling of Super Bowl Sunday. Not who wins and who loses because at the end of the day this is the last game of the football season so you wont have anything else to look forward to until September. But for us -- for movies fans, this is our day. The day where a teaser trailer speaks to us like nothing else can. The day where anticipation leads to something much, much more. The realization that in just a couple of months we will actually be in the theater, popcorn in hand seeing these movies in all their glory. That's hope. That's greatness. That's why Super Bowl Sunday is the best day for movie fans. Oh
