During the Super Bowl, there were
several trailers for upcoming movies. The ones listed above were some of them,
but not the only ones. Though, they are the only ones that I really care about;
therefore, I am only reviewing those.
Captain America: The Winter Soldier

Now that I
have gotten all of my flaws with this trailer out of the way, I can talk about
its good stuff. It again has a very seriously and spy movie-like feel to it in
that it is not just a fun, action-filled trailer. Although I just mentioned
that the trailer makes the film look like there may be many meaningless
aspects, there are aspects that look like they have a meaning. This trailer
also has great shots and it looks like the cinematographer really needs the
shots to be good, which is a good thing for the film. I am feeling that Captain
America will get more character development in this film, because the trailer
almost makes the film look like it is going to go into his past. We also might
get some character progression with Captain America and see him change. Though,
I think others, like Nick Fury, could change, too. This trailer also has some
amazingly directed, awesome, exhilarating, and extremely well-executed action
that I am really looking forward to seeing on the big screen. This villain in
this film seems very imposing to Shield (and out heroes), so I think Shield
will really have to work to defeat him, and I would like to see Shield face a
big challenge.
That is what
I think of the Captain America: The
Winter Soldier Super Bowl trailer. It is a great trailer that really got me
excited for the film.
The Amazing Spider-Man 2

Now I can
tell why this is a big improvement over the first trailer. It looks like we
will learn more of why Peter Parker is Spider-Man, and generally more about his
character through his conversations with Gwen Stacy. We also learned in this
trailer why Max Dillon wanted to become Electro in the first place. It is also
a good motive for Max to want to be a hero. We also see cool action in this
trailer that would definitely look cool on the big screen, because of the fact
that it is well directed and very good-looking. Also, the people at Ozcorp have
a good motive to why they want Spider-Man off the streets. Think about it, he stopped
one bad thing from happening, so he is a threat to Ozcorp, because they are
evil. This is told through a hero message that it is very hard to be a hero and
you will always have big enemies.
Those are my
thoughts on The Amazing Spider-Man 2
Super Bowl trailer. Despite its flaws, it is a very good trailer that has
sparked my interest in the film.
Transformers: Age of Extinction

It is now
time for me to tell you why I am not looking forward to this film. The action
in this trailer goes too far. At one point, we have a robot falling backwards
in slow-motion, shooting two machine guns. We have seen people do that before.
That is on the line of too far. But a robot doing it at skyscraper height is
definitely too far. This trailer is edited stupidly. It has the conventional
quick-cut style with cool sound effects to keep audiences still interested.
This trailer also has silly and bad-looking CGI. None of the robots look like
they are actually there. And the lighting does not work. If it is at night,
make the CGI lighting for the robots dimmer. Lastly, and of course, we have our
Michael Bay stamps. There is constant slow-motion use. There is a lot of people
running in slow-motion, most of the time from an explosion. There are overly
processed colors that almost blinded my eyes. And, of course, we have what Michael
Bay is famous for, a lot of explosions. Firework-like, random explosions are in
these thirty seconds, a lot. These Michael Bay stamps are always bad. I am
pretty sure this film will not be good.
That is why I
think that this is really not a good trailer at all and why I am not looking
forward to this film.
