All the Super Bowl LIII trailers, ranked

From 'Wonder Park' to 'Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark,' it was a pretty bad year for film and football fans

Between Adam Levine's ugly-ass chest tattoos and a "Sweet Victory" tease that pissed everybody off at halftime and the Los Angeles Rams total inability to advance the ball in any meaningful way for 60 minutes of excruciatingly bad football (especially for fans outside of New England), it's pretty safe to say that Super Bowl LIII was a disaster on almost every front [Editor's Note: Except for, you know, the Patriots winning the Super Bowl].

Even the trailers, a bellwether as to the evening's overall health, weren't that great -- some were undercut by big releases a few days before, others were for movies coming out in a week or so, others were 10 seconds long and therefore shorter than the Rams' time of possession -- but there were some that still excited and inflamed passions of the film fans in attendance at parties all over the country. We've compiled every trailer that aired during the Big Game for you in this article here, and ranked them from worst to best, for your viewing pleasure.

Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark

Speaking of “going big or going home,” one has to wonder why 10-second ad buys throughout the entire game would be a good idea to tease Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark, as you were almost guaranteed to miss them if you got a particularly interesting text message or had to use the restroom during a commercial break. While it’s nice that we’ve gotten a lot of teasers for this weird little anthology film that highlight enough of each story just enough to make millennials feel chills run down their spines at the recognition, it’s still not enough for us to really pick up on the vibe, especially since the only one that we saw during the game is the spider-oriented one featured above.
