Offensive & stupid.
Made me jet soda across my keyboard.

true, but the teaser for the Incredibles and the one for Cars are interesting and exciting to watch. they get you interested in the movie. all that the Ringer trailer did was make me go "oh...."

somehow i can't see this foray outside the realms of riding shopping trolleys into kerbs being overly successful.

Well that's true of all three Matrix films.

Correct, it's what you call a teaser. This is usually just a short clip of the movie. Pixar do teasers sometimes a year before they release their movie. So it's kind of a quick trailer while the movie is (usually) still being filmed or in post-production.

I think it's more of a preview clip rather than a full trailer.
At least, I hope so.

it strikes me that if this movie was any good, there'd have been significantly more to the trailer than that one gag.

Hahaha

Neo and Trinity die.

You suck, monkey_man. Not funny at all thanks to thee.

I think I exploded my nose :(

Ah, well.

I thought the whole special olympics bit was just a gag, but it's the entire plot. Sights I'm hoping to see are Johnny Knoxville getting beaten up at mong-boxing, and those kids that have super-human power doing weights. Also pole vault.

?
I'm saying by explaining the trailer in your post, it robs the clip of the element of surprise - and that is where the comedy is for the trailer.
Telling people what they'll see = not so funny.
