Every Movie Trailer From Super Bowl 50 Ranked From Worst To Best
11. Eddie The Eagle
Eddie The Eagle is a sports movie and the Super Bowl is a sporting event - why not work the two together? That has to be the pitch that led to this utterly bizarre advert for the good-looking, so far well-received film starring a strong up-and-comer and one of the biggest stars around. American football legends (at least that's what the trailer says - as I said, I have no clue about the sport) Russell Wilson, Drew Brees, Kurt Warner were invited to see Eddie The Eagle and give their thoughts on it. The result is exactly what you expect when you get a bunch of athletes to review a movie; vague, baseless quotes that they feel is the sort of things people say about movies they like. It's a cringeworthy thirty seconds, only alleviated by having excellent footage of the movie edited around their vox pops. Eddie The Eagle looks great and while I get the motivations behind this teaser, I can't see how this is the best way to sell the film. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dARGS9l8z5M
