SB Commercialism

All Ads, and my thoughts:

1. Bud Light: Office - Its alright. I wasnt expecting to see them tearing up the office, but why was an intern hiding beer, and why did he expect the exec to appreciate it?

2. Burger King: Whopperettes - Excellent. Very funny, over the top silly, the stacking on the burger was laugh-out-loud. Musical without grating on my nerves. very nice. Love seeing the "freaky king."

3. Sierra Mist: Airport - Yawn. Sierra Mist always seems to think their commercials are funnier than they actually are. Must be a Pepsi phenomenon. It was a cute commerical for april, but during the superbowl? bah.

4. Bud Light: Hidden Fridge - Nice. The praying was a good sealer to it.

5. Movie - blah, why bother?

6. Toytota: Camry - Wow, how better than me you are, speaking two languages and driving a hybrid. Too bad no one told you that you'll have to drive it for 12 years to make up the difference in price of a hybrid. Oh, and the battery wont last that long, and it wont be covered under warrenty. Screwed!

7. FedEx: Cavemen - Thats funny! "not my problem" The stepping on was a little much, but overall funny.

8. Bud Light: Camping - OK. The bear wants a Budlight? How did they guy get away? Well, seeing the 'yoink' was surprising and funny. Not the best Bud ad, but it was ok.

9. Another movie.. does anyone make movies that aren't sci-fi-comic-booky anymore? Blah.

10. Diet pepsi: Brown and Bubby - Terrible. Has pepsi ever commissioned a tollerable ad ever? At all? They fail more assuredly in the Super Bowl than the public mass transit system.

11. Aleve: Mr Nimoy - I suppose if you like Star Trek Wars or whatever sci-fi crap this is from, it was good. I did like the "i dont get it" aspect, folloed by the reveal, though it wasnt funny, so much.

12. Ameriquest: hospital - Excellent! Ameriquest is the new Budweiser! That killed him.. ha! It killed me!

13. Bud Light: Roof Grill - Very nice. This was two full gags, all in one. They could have split up the guy falling through and getting hit by his tool box to a whole separate commercial. Nice.

14. Diet Pepsi: Crap Fu Can - seriously, did Jay Mohr read these scripts before signing on? I guess Pepsi has enough money to make anyone do anything, no matter how stupid.

15. Disney: Cars - Hmm. I hadnt seen any previews of this before (were there any?) but i'm not... impressed. It seems ok, and I wanna (and will) see it... but i was hoping fo rmore. Oh well.

16. Budweiser: Streaker - Nice. I like the horses playing football gag. The shaved sheep was good.

2nd Quarter

17. ESPN Mobile - Uhmm.. OK. Its not like the service is really THAT great. Kinda cool visual, i guess. I just like my SB commericals like my movies, full of punchlines.. or at least punches.

18. Careerbuilder: Monkeys - Very nice. I love the little dance at the end. Pretty good.

19. Cadillac - Nice looking truck. I like the look of the new GM van-replacements. (I know they are SUVs, but they only exist so whiney little bitches dont have to drive minivans, like real parents should) Kind of creative to have it appear from the watery.. stuff. I like it. Car reveals in Super Bowl ads are kinda neat.

20. Dove: Girls - Good commercial, great cause, wrong audience. This is a drunken, amped up, party-atmosphere watching grown men obliterate each other int he name of advancing a ball. Not exactly the 'love the differences in little girls' venue. Though I appreicate the idea behind it, and would support it.

21.Movie – blah, blah

22. Ford: Kermit- Kermit climbing, singing, sees an suv, end commercial. Uhm… ok. Now Ford is hiring the muppets to shill its crap-fest of cars? Beautiful. Another beloved childhood institution perverted for commercial value. Blah.

23. Michelobe: Tackle – Not their fault, but is anyone else getting tired of seeing folks fall down or get hit for laughs? Yeah, me either. It was ok.

24. GoDaddy: Strap – Uhmm.. ok.. I like boobies, but this was just more of the same. Give subscribers the video of her showing those things bare, and I’ll move my hosting. Until then, good luck fielding all the calls from 6th grade boys, who are the only ones who’d be excited by what you can show in a SB commercial.

25. Movie – blah

26. Gillette: Fusion – The next one will have 9 blades! I do think the one blade on the back is a good idea, but otherwise, these things bore me.

27. Overstock.com – I was surprised to learn that this lady isn’t like, the wife of the owner or something. She’s a model they picked for their commercials. Shes ok, I guess, but not what I’d call hot. Plus, this commercial bored me. Yawn.

28. Disney: Disney – OK, walt was a great man, and I should go patronize all of their parks and buy their things, but I couldn’t pay attention through this whole thing. Someone tell me if it has a payoff at the end.

29. Sprint: locker Room – This was a dumb idea, that I’m surprised made it out of concepting, but it actually worked fairly well. I wanna throw my phone at someone’s face, then when it hits the ground and shatters into a million pieces, take it back and say, I want a new one, the security feature failed. I’m not gonna. But I want to.

30. United: Flight – A slightly cool, slightly creepy style, and a bizarre plot. I mean.. ok, I want to fly… do you have the best rate on Hotwire? OK, then I will fly your company. Save this money to discount your rates, people. Not funny.

Geez. This is a bigger undertaking than I thought it would be. Whew.

31. Disney: NFL – OK. It was alright, I guess… Steelers based, any surprise?

Wow.. OK, so that was the first half. Second half later.
