Every Movie Trailer From Super Bowl 50 Ranked From Worst To Best

10. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2: Out Of The Shadows

OH MY GOD GUYS! KRANG! TECHNODROME! Oh yeah, I just remembered I don't give a sh*t about TMNT, especially this Michael Bay infused take (not that I have any affinity for any of the iterations, and only a vague admiration for the idea behind the original comic). Let's not forget for a second that the first movie was actually worse than the same year's Transformers: Age Of Extinction, nor that from what we've seen the sequel is going to be very similar (right down to the big boss fight once again happening on a wide open platform above a terrorised city). All the hype for Out Of The Shadows seems to piggyback off the presence of so many fan-favourite villains being chucked in to really amp up the nostalgia factor (and, in a perverse homage to their original creation, sell toys). It'd be Spider-Man 3, if Spider-Man 1 & 2 had been sh*t. Although even if you've got hype because of that, the trailer's managed to wrong you; so much of the movie in terms of iconography and set pieces is thrown up in this thirty second tease, meaning there's going to very little left to experience in the shadows of the movie theatre. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5VpUTb3Ex_8
