Hmm I'm not sure that's quite accurate :p

Based on previous experience, does anyone have an idea as to when during this 2 hour broadcast the new footage will get shown? I don't really wanna sit through that movie/short again for 2 mins new trailer...

I think it's implying on Japanese television and it would most likely be after the movie and short and you should be able to find out how long they both go for together if you look up the running time for the both of them.
 
I'm a little disappointed. I thought we'd get another pre-movie special/semi-prequel.

Cartoon Network might have something to say about that...

To be fair Kids' WB! used to use the phrase "World Premiere" for their broadcasts of the English dub despite the fact that the dub was like a full year behind the Japanese version back in those days. This is just the same thing, only in reverse.
 
Yes, indeed. And also...

"The 2015 blockbuster Hoopa and the Clash of Ages & Pikachu and the Pokémon Music Squad."

A bit self-flattering, eh? Considering it bombed at the box office.

How bad did it bomb? And why? This information is kinda hard to find......

I don't know what the film's budget was (and apparently they don't want to reveal it), but it made only ¥2.61 billion (which is about $22 million). Not sure why it happened, though. And it's possible that all that is why this year's movie has barely been mentioned until now.
