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.

Toy Story 4

Now we’re getting into quality territory, which is nice. We’re treated to a new setting for the fourth film in the franchise — that of a carnival or state fair — and we’re also given our first glimpse at the new-found warrior princess Bo Peep (though your milage may very on the hollowness of that feminist gesture). But more importantly, we’re given something to chuckle at, with the early animosity between the new characters, as played by Jordan Peele (his first of three appearances on this list) and Keegan Michael Key, and Buzz Lightyear as they’re both competing for “top prize” at a carnival booth. A solid gag that we wish we could have seen more of.
