Disney has released their Super Bowl spot for the upcoming Pixar animated feature Up. Like most Pixar films (seriously, when was the last time they had a miss?) this one looks like it’s going to be great. Click the image above to head on over to Disney’s website and watch the clip.
Synopsis
From Disney•Pixar comes “Up,” a comedy adventure about 78-year-old balloon salesman Carl Fredricksen, who finally fulfills his lifelong dream of a great adventure when he ties thousands of balloons to his house and flies away to the wilds of South America. But he discovers all too late that his biggest nightmare has stowed away on the trip: an overly optimistic 9-year-old Wilderness Explorer named Russell. From the Academy Award®-nominated director Pete Docter (“Monsters, Inc.”), Disney•Pixar’s “Up” invites you on a hilarious journey into a lost world, with the least likely duo on Earth. “Up” will be presented in Disney Digital 3-D™ in select theaters.
Up hits conventional and 3D theaters on May 29th.

Paramount Pictures has released the G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra Super Bowl TV spot to ComingSoon.net. Click the above image to watch the trailer, or click any of the following links to download and watch the trailer in high definition: 480p || 720p || 1080p
I have to admit that I was a little nervous about this movie, but you have got to hand it to Paramount. If there is anything wrong with the movie itself, they’ve done a great job disguising it with this short, yet fairly awesome, 30-second spot.
Synopsis
Paramount Pictures and Hasbro, whose previous collaboration was the worldwide blockbuster “Transformers,” join forces with Spyglass Entertainment for another extraordinary action-adventure “G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra.” From the Egyptian desert to deep below the polar ice caps, the elite G.I. JOE team uses the latest in next-generation spy and military equipment to fight the corrupt arms dealer Destro and the growing threat of the mysterious Cobra organization to prevent them from plunging the world into chaos. “G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra.” is directed by Stephen Sommers (“The Mummy,” “The Mummy Returns”).
G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra hits theaters on August 7th.

According to ZDNet, Apple is hard at work on a more powerful iPhone that could hit store shelves later this year. The new phone, said to be about as powerful as Sony’s PlayStation Portable, will be twice as poweful as the current generation iPhone allowing it to render graphics and games, better than anything before it in the portable gaming world.
The key for the new iPhone will be users ability to download their games via Apple’s App Store, which users can access wirelessly or on their computer.

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen director Michael Bay has posted a message on his official site revealing that the spot that will air during tomorrow’s Super Bowl on NBC will be a teaser of the upcoming full-length teaser trailer (which will be attached to Friday the 13th on February 13th):
The Super Bowl spot is coming Sunday in the third Quarter (few minutes into the quarter slot). The spot will be online a few minutes after that – The full length teaser trailer will only be on Friday the Thirteenth. It will not hit the internet until a week later. The Teaser really only teases stuff – I’m holding so much stuff back from the final trailers because I personally hate going to movies where you have seen it all.
