You’ve got to love twitter for pieces of information like the following:  Yes. “We’re cutting it now. RT @AustinCFilms: superbowl trailer for Cowboys & Aliens?”  That tweet came via John Favreau’s twitter and its got me jumping up and down in my desk chair.

The Super Bowl is the ultimate stage for any TV spot in America, and, as an American, it is one of the main reasons why I watch the Super Bowl since my team never seems to make it all the way (although this year is our chance-GO JETS!).  Seeing as how this is one of the movies I’m looking forward to the most this year I’m glad to see it making a big public statement by using the Super Bowl as its true debut to the non cinephile public.

I’ll be curious to see if it is posted online before the game takes place, although secretly I hope it doesn’t since it makes the experience that much more rewarding.

The film is expected to hit theaters on  July 29, 2011.
