Google puts videos of Super Bowl XL commercials on one page.
Magic Fridge, The Streak... and The Baby Clydesdale-every mom had to just love that one!! It was soooo cute!
as soon as I heard brownandbubbly.com all I could think of was septic tanks.....
yeah, like where was the farting horse commercial? that one from last year really cracked me up.
that's about the dumbest slogan I ever heard. kinda reminds of of passing very wet gas...
I thought most were pretty lame, but the Budweiser "Magic Refrigerator" was pretty good. My favorite was the one with the young colt entering the barn.
It checks out the picture of the Budweiser Clydesdale Team. It checks out the beer wagon. It sticks its small neck into the horse collar and starts pulling. The wagon starts to move the camera pulls back to show two adult horses pushing from the back.
I noted that on the disgusting list as well. Sounds more like a bad Taco Bell experience than a refreshing drink.
I saw that as a great putdown of Broke Back Mountain.
Bump for later.
Some were good, but it seems this year's were not as good as in the past.
Hey, NFL, it's like putting Lawrence Welk on in the 60's. Our group was yelling for him to lip sync ... and the "rent a groupie" bunch was dreadful. "Come on grampa, shake it".... When you have to rehearse folks to look star stuck, the thrill is gone.
The Stones must all be going deaf. They couldn't hear how much they sucked.
They missed a great opportunity by not putting the UPS logo (United Parcel Smashers) on the big foot at the very end end. I guess that would have meant a lawsuit, though.
The Bud stadium ad was the best.
LOL! I turned to my wife and told her that if Mick was on American Idol, Randy would say, "Dog, you almost sound like Mick jagger, but you just don't have it." Simon would say, "That was awful, every note was off key." And Paula would say, "Kind of interesting, but I'm sorry, it's just not appropriate for what we're looking for here."
This was part of a concerted effort by the NFL and advertisers to "target" female viewers. They've already ruined the olympics and made them unwatchable. The "competition" is secondary, and only a part of "the soap opera". If they do this to the Super Bowl, I'll have to turn in my man-card.
That being said, the one about the backyard football game when the man pile-drives the trash talking woman was quite funny. I thought it was going to be another "girl-power" commercial, till they threw in that twist.
I niticed that too, but I assumed that was intentional, but not sure. I also don't recall seeing a satellite dish on the other house, but i could have missed it.
The Clydesdale colt was the cutest. The FEDEX caveman was the funniest.
Someone please tell Aretha Franklin, that in the last stanza of the Ntl. Anthem, the word "brave" only has one syllable, not seven!!
I thought it was somewhat awkward though.
