That&#8217;s because the studio has bought an unprecedented four commercial spots throughout the February 5th game day. The studio will have two commercials airing during the Super Bowl pre-game show, one during the game&#8217;s fourth quarter and one more during the post-game show.<\/p>\n<p>With prime Super Bowl advertising time going for up to $4 million per 30 seconds, Summit is banking a lot on the film. But that bet may be a smart one. Last year, the studio bought one commercial for the Bradley Cooper thriller <strong>Limitless<\/strong> and the film opened a month later and managed to pull $79 million, a good return for Summit against the film&#8217;s $27 million budget.<\/p>\n<p>According to the <em>Los Angeles Times<\/em>, Paramount Pictures, Walt Disney Pictures and Universal Pictures have also purchased ad time for the Super Bowl, though there hasn&#8217;t been any official announcement what film each studio will feature in those spots. Paramount is very likely to feature either of their two big summer action tent pole films, <strong>The Avengers<\/strong> or <strong>GI Joe: Retaliation<\/strong>. Universal could very well go with either the actioner <strong>Battleship<\/strong> or the comedy <strong>American Reunion<\/strong>. Disney will most likely feature their big fantasy epic John Carter which will be opening on March 9. The film is a big gamble for the studio with a reported budget in the neighborhood of $250 million.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s the current trailer for <strong>Act Of Valor<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><object width=\"520\" height=\"286\" classid=\"clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000\" codebase=\"http:\/\/download.macromedia.com\/pub\/shockwave\/cabs\/flash\/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0\"><param name=\"allowscriptaccess\" value=\"always\" \/><param name=\"wmode\" value=\"transparent\" \/><param name=\"allowfullscreen\" value=\"true\" \/><param name=\"src\" value=\"http:\/\/www.traileraddict.com\/emd\/50257\" \/><embed width=\"520\" height=\"286\" type=\"application\/x-shockwave-flash\" src=\"http:\/\/www.traileraddict.com\/emd\/50257\" allowscriptaccess=\"always\" wmode=\"transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" \/><\/object><\/p>\n<p>Via Reuters.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\">Summit bets big on the most expensive television advertising day of the year.<\/div>\n<p> <a class=\"mh-excerpt-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/2012\/01\/12\/summits-act-of-valor-taking-four-super-bowl-spots\/\" title=\"Summit&#8217;s ACT OF VALOR Taking Four Super Bowl Spots\">[click for more]<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":18137,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_ef_editorial_meta_date_first-draft-date":"","_ef_editorial_meta_paragraph_assignment":"","_ef_editorial_meta_checkbox_needs-photo":"","_ef_editorial_meta_number_word-count":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[84],"tags":[4660,7886],"series":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-18129","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-news","8":"tag-act-of-valor","9":"tag-superbowl"},"aioseo_notices":[],"nelio_content":{"autoShareEndMode":"never","automationSources":{"useCustomSentences":false,"customSentences":[]},"efiAlt":"","efiUrl":"","followers":[2],"highlights":[],"isAutoShareEnabled":false,"networkImageIds":[],"permalinkQueryArgs":[],"series":[],"suggestedReferences":[]},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18129","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=18129"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18129\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/18137"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=18129"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=18129"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=18129"},{"taxonomy":"series","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.filmbuffonline.com\/FBOLNewsreel\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/series?post=18129"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
