Now I've been refreshing and refreshing the Facebook page for the better part of 5 hours now and along with the numerous comments and posts on the page regarding today's events, most people -- me included are wondering when the hell is the thing actually going to be shown. There was no specific time set out for the debut of the trailer with the only news today stating that the trailer would be shown "Sometime this afternoon (PST)" meaning that even if the trailer debuts at 4pm on the West Coast, those of us on the East -- me included wont see the trailer till at least 7pm. Sucks for us I know.
The promotion for the Facebook page was flawless. Getting people to like the page in order to get a chance to see an exclusive look at the new movie. Genius. what they didn't expect was the backlash the page would receive now that we all have bee waiting and I use patiently loosely for the trailer but so far to no avail. The number of likes grew rapidly by the minute and will end up having more likes in these two days then my own page "The Reel Scoop" will have in its eternity. I'm not bitter though. So as I sit here typing this article up, I headed on over to the X Men Movies Facebook page and low and behold there it is! The Trailer is up. At 5:52pm (EST) the trailer finally arrives. Making this whole article a mute point. Oh well. The trailer was awesome by the way and you can check it out below now that I have the link to it as well. Enjoy!
Update: You have to like the actuall "X Men Movies" fan page on Facebook to actually watch the trailer on Facebook! Lame!
Sidenote: Rumor has it that the second we all see this trailer the Facebook likes of a particular Facebook Page will steadily decrease. Just a rumor though!
