So it appears the "sneak peek" of Superman we were promised during the Puppy Bowl was just an edited version of the existing trailer.
Unpopular opinion, I'd rather trailers showed less than more before the movie comes out.

I agree to an extent. I have a totally subjective limit where I feel like I've seen as much as I want to see before a movie comes out. That point has not yet been reached with this film.
Well, this one was just a "teaser" trailer, there's gonna be at the very least a "first" and a "final" one as well. Fingers crossed that limit is hit by the end of that cycle.

I'm unfamiliar with that superhero.
You don't remember Stan Lee's Stripperella?
That explains it, I'm more of a DC gal.
Think about it this way: Will you go see the movie? If the answer is an unmitigated 'Yes', then you don't need any more trailers.
Also, it's still five months till the movie opens.
I was amazed to see some older trailers from the '40s or '50s that are even worse, they laid out the whole story, practically from the beginning almost all the way to the end.
Did i miss seeing a Superman trailer in the main Super Bowl show? Or not yet?it is currently 4th quarter 8 minutes leftWell, this one was just a "teaser" trailer, there's gonna be at the very least a "first" and a "final" one as well. Fingers crossed that limit is hit by the end of that cycle.
Nope. WB didn't shell out for this year.
The Puppy Bowl was getting ready for the movie. Two of the players were named Bark Kent and Lex Woofer.
Meanwhile, Robert Zemeckis compares movie trailers to McDonald's where there are no surprises because you know exactly what you're getting there, and he's in favor of that.
Why even bother putting mystery and suspense in your movie if you're going to give everything away in the trailer?
I just wish trailers were actually always trailers. I hate how Hollywood constantly acts like dramatic logo reveals, bts featurettes and random context free clips are somehow all equivalent to an actual trailer.
Why do people go to movies adapting books they've already read? Why do people rewatch movies they've already seen? Surprise is not the only emotion that fiction exists to evoke. And even if we get a glimpse of what happens, there's still a lot we don't know about how and why it happens, how it fits into the context of the story and what it means to the characters. The total experience of the story is what matters.
If a story is well-made, then we get drawn into what the characters are feeling, and suspend disbelief about our own knowledge that it's all an illusion. If the characters don't know what's coming, then we can feel their suspense and anxiety along with them, if we let ourselves get immersed in the story.
Maybe not so much mystery and suspense, but surprises are certainly possible, if not spoiled in advance. Not a movie I know, but one of my more memorable viewing moments in recent years was Superman & Lois's reveal that "the Stranger/Captain Luthor" was actually John Henry Irons. It would have sucked if a preview had given that great twist away.
I didn't watch the whole game but i had expected to see like 3 superhero movie trailers and ultimately all i saw was Thunderbolts.
