    Okay i didn't see a post about it and i am kind of surprised. What was your favorite commercial during superbowl? I had to work so most of them were a blur but the one i remember a lot and was laughing hard was the one that had the convient store clerks beat the hell out of a guy they use a taser gun on him.

    Then they just said don't judge too quick...pretty funny in my opinion

    I liked the first Bud Light ad where the guy pilot jumps out of the plane without a chute, and the FedEx Burt Reynolds/Dancing Bear ad.

    Hell yes. I was really going to say these exact same commercials. Bud Light dominates again with every commercial being laugh-out-loud funny (except the one with the rooster at the bar, that one was just dumb). I'd say the plane one was their best effort, a good one at that. Their commercial with Cedric the Entertainer having an island fantasy was good also.

    I like how a few commercials stated they were SuperBowl commercials, pretty funny and smart marketing if you ask me. The FedEx one was the most random and random is hilarious to me. One of the funniest commercials I can remember seeing for a long time.

    The 24 commercials were all great, not because they were special promos but just because 24 is incredible and just hearing anything about it is a good thing.

    I liked the Mustang commercial, but they played it too much.

    It may have been shown before, but I liked the Anheuser Busch commercial with the soldiers in the airport. Basic...emotional...no product endorsement...just a simple support message.

    Pepsi needs to drop out of SB advertising. Their commercials get weaker and weaker every year.

    The Ameriquest commercial where the guy is making a suprise dinner for his girl and the cat spills the sauce pot was pretty funny.

    AND...it's always great to see MC Hammer gettin' some work...can't touch this!:D

    I like the FedEx and the cat one too.

    I was surprised that the one Bud ad got pulled but it was ok to show that GoDaddy ad where the girl kept falling out of her top before some committee.

    I take that back, Looks like that ad was supposed to air twice and got pulled by fox.

    I like the airplane one. Cat one was funny in a sick way. I like the one where the gay guy shows up.

    Go Daddy.com was almost too good. I'm surprised they let 'em air it.

    Every year the SB commercials get so overhyped. The offerings this year were lacking at best. I liked the FedEx Bear commercial though.

    I tell ya, these Ad Marketing people are stealing money coming up with this crap for these businesses.

    To me, much of it was just bland or been there done that. Nothing innovative.

    I think the SB commercials have really lost their luster. These businesses would come up with a great idea and wait until the SB to showcase their new ads but these days businesses cant wait and come up with a great idea and just show it whenever, in the middle of the year. When the SB comes around we just have mediocre commercials comparitively.

    To use a Rockets example, the Tmac Addidas commercial with the helicopers holding him down was awesome. Very cool and innovative. That would have been better than ANY of the commercials in the SB. And that was just thrown on the TV in late fall.

    That reminds me. I liked the T-Mac, Duncan, and KG commercial. I hadn't seen that yet until Sunday. Very different.

    spot on. SB commercials are so blah, I really don't see what the big deal is other than the fact that people shell out so much to put this crap on the air. It really baffles me that some people actually watch the SB for the commercials, like you wont see them plenty enough later on.

    I thought the bloody cat one was great....as was the frozen mustang one.

    The career builder one with the monkeys and the whoopie cushion was funny too.

    Overall, I thought this years ads were very below average.
