Diet Pepsi Max one was decent. The Budweiser Clydesdale (Hank) one was good. So was the Bud Light "wine and cheese" one. And the Toyota one where all the people are racing Big Wheels was good.

The Coke one with Stewie, Underdog and Charlie Brown was my wife's favorite.

One of the quotes from the Jackie Moon/Bud Light commercial is currently my IM away message: "A lot of sweat goes into every bottle. Not literally, that would be gross, but you know what I mean."
I really liked that one too. I was waiting for Lucy to come outta nowhere and take the coke away from Chuck at the end though.

I did not think that the writers strike would affect advertisments.

Anything by Victoria's Secret.

Oh and the Will Ferell one was funny too.

I think there's been a pretty serious public backlash in recent years with respect to the halftime show and the ads. After the whole Janet Jackson boob thing everything has seemed a lot tamer. I would've let my two year old watch this year's halftime show, and I don't really recall anything that would stir up much in the way of FCC complaints as far as the ads go.

The whole production seemed to get edgier and edgier every year, and now it seems a lot tamer and family friendly.

I hated the halftime show. Everyone got all crazy just because of a stupid boob. Granted it was awful timing but it's a boob for crying out loud!

I bet they'll whip out Simon and Garfunkle for the halftime show next year and play "Sounds of Silence". At least everyone will have a nice 30 minute nap.

Re: Favorite Super Bowl 08 Commercials

For anyone who didn't see the salesgenie commercial (This one is for the Asian pandas), here's a link to it from a gossip website. (Yeah I know a lot of my links are from gossip sites. I'm a girl. Give me a break. )

2008 Super Bowl, 1908 Advertising / Mollygood

Ingenious. A commercial that rebuts all SB Commercials. Plus the high life commercials are funny anyways...that one was great.

Re: Favorite Super Bowl 08 Commercials

Rather than start a new thread 09 Begins here.

I liked the Troy Polamalu Coke Zero commercial which is a parody of the Mean Joe Greene one.



All in all though, I think that they are just getting worse and worse every year.

Re: Favorite Super Bowl 08 Commercials

I want to see the movies that are coming out. Star Trek, GI Joe, and Tranformers. What can I say? I'm a nerd. Those were the best. I did like Troy's commercial. The one where they daydreamed about punching the animals (by Monster?, some job agency) was good too.

Re: Favorite Super Bowl 08 Commercials
