Superbowl commercials!
Feb. 4th, 2007 06:25 pmI know this may not make much sense to anyone outside the US, but. I'm not a football fan, so like many, I only watch the Superbowl for the commercials.
So: Superbowl commercial commentary!
• Snickers: two guys "accidentally" kiss
• Bud Light: "English class"
• Budweiser: the wannabe Dalmatian (Awww...)
• The awesome Japanese monster movie spoof for a personal navigation system (can't remember the brand name)
• Coke: The machinima commercial -- yet another example of fan practices being picked up by popular culture.
• Chevrolet: OMG the one where all the guys were stripping and washing the car with the four cringing women inside!!
• GM: the little robot trying to pick up the pieces of his shattered life to the tune of "All By Myself" totally made me cry. I can't even blame hormones.
• Coke: MDH just explained to me that the "milestones in Black history" one refers to the fact that the coaches of both teams are Black, a first in the history of the Superbowl. So, very cool.
• Sprint: Connectile dysfunction. *snerk*
Halftime: Okay, Prince? ROCKED. God, I love him. He sure looks good for a man on the verge of turning 50.
• Sheryl Crowe, have you SOLD YOUR SOUL? :-P
• Taco Bell: the lions were hilarious! "Dude, Ricardo Montalban?"
• Emerald Nuts: They always have weird-ass commercials. Is Robert Goulet that hard-up for work?
• Motorola: Waitress, referring to Charles Barkely: "Is this your dad?" LOL!
• That insurance company: K-Fed! Even though I'd seen it before, it's still funny. I bet Britney got a laugh.
• Bud Light: The hitchhiker one. "Honey, he has an axe!" "But he has Bud Light!" And then the next hitchhiker has a chainsaw, and axe man is all "He has a chainsaw!" "But he has Bud Light!" :-D
• HEB (local one, I think): Emmit Smith is superfly! That was cute.
• Budweiser: crabs worshiping the cooler of beer. The animation was good, but I think I missed something with that one...
• HP: I love OCC, so it was great to see the guys in such a cool commercial.
• eTrade: "Things you can do with one finger". Funny that they didn't mention any of the ones that popped into my mind. *coughs*
&bull: CareerBuilder: I didn't like the ads at first, but they're starting to grow on me.
Note: Most of the commercials can be seen HERE. :-D
