The Official Super Bowl Commercials Thread
The tebow commercial won't be the only one, after all ... so share your thoughts about the commercials (everyone's favorite part of the Super Bowl anyway) here. :)

1. Just watched Mickey D's commercial. Had to look up the original on YouTube so the kids got the joke.

Seriously, a Focus on the Family commercial that involves tackling your mom is creepy.

20. Creepy is indeed the word i would use.
between the tackle and the snuggle at end of the commercial, it just struck me as creepy.

l ilked the Simpsons one (hope Coke paid a lot for that- kind of odd). Haven't really seen anything "amazing" yet. The Dove commercial was kind of sweet.

63. This may be the worst collection of S.B. commercials in a long time
Edited on Mon Feb-08-10 05:38 AM by Auggie
Inane/stupid.

Missing, opaque selling propositions.

Boring/Seen it before

Too complicated/too many confusing messages.

Google is a standout for it's effective product demo. The Betty White Snickers spot works well too, though it took a couple viewings for me to understand what they were trying to say. It wasn't edited well.

Bud Light -- professional quality spots.
