Blogging Superbowl Ads
AdJab is blogging Superbowl ads.
Updated: I’m just going to categorize my own.
Liked: I liked the iTunes ones and the “I work with a bunch of monkeys” one. Robbery. NFL players singing tomorrow. Soldiers coming home (tugging on the heartstrings, I still don’t like watery beer). Clouding up the car windows. Cooking the cat. Working with a bunch of monkeys II. The nuts with the fairy tale characters. Working with a bunch of monkeys III.
Tasteless: GoDaddy. Apparently, the tasteless godaddy ad was pulled from a second showing by request of the NFL. Heh.
Huh?: The muppets (my daughter didn’t get that one).
Had to live during the 80s:MC Hammer.
Oooh lala: A single Brad Pitt drinks Heineken? I didn’t know that. (I missed the Diet Pepsi walking down the street one.)
Most likely to use the product they’re advertising: I work with a bunch of monkeys (careerbuilder). iTunes/Pepsi. Napster. Prius (ok, the commercial was cool.)
Lame commercials of the night: The Cadillac in the tunnel one. The countertop one. Frozen guy in a car (all three times of it is lame). Talking Baby. Tobasco. The easy button - seen that already, lame-o. Drug for can’t getting it up syndrome - even showing a couple in two seperate bathtubs. Verizon wireless miniaturization.
Ok: Bud light jumping out of an airplane. The guys on the picture phone. Budweiser Clydesdale wanna bes. The bold and smooth one. Pepsi truck.
Didn’t make an impression on me: The movie commercials. The rest of the car commercials. mbna. Comcast.

What’s so extremely interesting about Super Bowl commercials??

well, because advertisers are spending 2.4 million to say something. I’m just hoping they’re funny.

It seems like the ads have been getting more expensive and less entertaining. I used to actually watch the entire game for the commercials, but the past two years I’ve given up around half-time, completely unenthralled.
… Of course, it’d be cool if the Seahawks were in the game for once, but I’m not getting my hopes up.

Wow… seems like it was a bonus to be Canadian, and forced to not see the US ads. Then again, seeing a Canandian Tire ad each time the game came back on, well, that’s not so special either.
