Supper Bowel Ads so far. Yuck.
Lame. not funny. not interesting. pathetic.

Violence against your honey is the norm?
Seeing rich people beg for champagne behind bars . . . . . . Well, it's a good start, but not the way they did it.
Really bad Pepsi ads.

one thing is for sure. Audi needs to fire their ad agency's creative director. He/She/It blows.

2. The Doritos one was good.
Only one to show promise thus far, IMO.

I know there's going to be a good Volkswagen one.

17. They just showed it.
Totally cute.

Leave it up to Volkswagen to come up with good commercials.

40. That was the only one I liked.
The Doritos sucking finger/smelling pants commercial was gross. Based on the yuck factor it would never entice me to buy Doritos. Ever. I like pugs and I'm glad the little cutie flattened the knucklehead at the door. I still don't want to buy Doritos.

Little boy Darth for VW reminded me of my nephew who wore that same costume for trick or treating when he was 3. It was my favorite commercial.

The Budweiser Clydesdale commercials used to be the one to wait for. This year's offering was okay but not even close to those of the past.

5. Sucking fingers and sniffing pants I thought was more sick
But the gold fish being revived and grampa too I thought was good.

3. Awe, I liked the one where the guy was tempting his dog with the
Doritos. I admit I didn't watch all of them but ne was pretty good.

8. I think that was one of the "home-made" ones.
I saw/heard an interview with the guy and he thought his girlfriend's dog looked really funny when it ran.

There was some kind of contest but not sure who the winner is.

27. I agree. So far that is about the only good one. I've been disappointed so far.
Edited on Sun Feb-06-11 08:00 PM by KatieW
The Darth Vador one was good too. And I thought the one for the New Google pad was good. (Was that a take off on the Apple 1984 one from years ago? I think that was an Apple commercial.)


YEA. Steelers JUST SCORED!!!!!!!!!!

31. The worst ones are the crappy movie ads
Must have been 4 or 5 of them so far.

And every one of them was for some futuristic sci fi "thriller" with apocalyptic overtones and shitty looking special effects.

And they all sucked.

36. Bud Light with kitchen remodel was hilarious to me
Maybe we've done too much remodeling. The "before" was a kitchen; the "after" was a shot of the same exact kitchen with a bucket of Bud Light on the counter. The homeowners oohed and ahhed over the "new" kitchen.

52. I was partial to the Bud Light with all the dogs, the VW with the little bug...
...running through the wilds, and the apocalyptic alien invasion movies.

They've been on zombies for too long, aliens have a tendency to follow zombie crazes and it's been foreshadowed with Falling Skies and the remade V. The timing was pretty good for them. OTOH, Cowboys and Aliens seems...lame. :(
