So I really liked the Planters commercial (w/ the unibrow girl) and the Clydesdale horse commercial.

I would get up, stretch and grab food during the commercials so I didn't get to see all of them.

My favorite one was the one where the patriots lost and the frattiest QB in the NFL won super bowl MVP.

Yes, and that movie terrified me as a small child. So when we first started seeing the paper cut-out ads in the theater, me and my bf thought that it was a remake of that. However, it's completely going to be something else that apparently just has a similar design. I'm trying to figure out how Pixar is going to make this one interesting. But I trust them so much, because I thought "Cars" was going to be a complete mess, but I was hooked the minutes I first met Lightning, and now, even though I'm a grown girl-I have a custom made shirt and bag (since they don't make it in cute things for grown ups) and the poster on my door and the stickers on my wall. I'm crazy for McQueen! My first paddle is even Lightning. So I guess I'll love Wall-E too!

I have to admit that I laughed out loud at the Bridgestone tire commercial with Richard Simmons. There he was exercising in the middle of a dark road when the car came and he started screaming like a girl. After the car swerved around him, it sped on, Richard resumed exercising and we could hear him call after the car saying something like, "I believe in you!!". LOL

Also, I gotta love the commercial with SDSU Aztecs, Salaam and Pitts. :)

Finally, I thought the Justin Timberlake Pepsi commercial was pretty clever; especially the end with the dad's flying TV coming into the frame.

.....Kelly :)

I loved the Justin Timberlake Pepsi commercial, and I thought the Coke one with Stewie, Underdog & Charlie Brown was adorable.

None of the spots really jumped out at me, although a lot of them were pretty good.

An interesting piece of marketing, was showing the "clock" with "less than a minute" to go until kickoff in the pregame show, and then running a single 30 second Ford commercial was brilliant placement.

I wonder what kind of premium Ford payed for that...

Had to be huge.

The Doritos commercial with the mouse was the only one that got me cracking up.

Me too! I actually laughed out loud at that one.

I really liked the Will Ferrell Commercial... was that for Bud Light? I can't remember, but I do remember nearly spitting out my own drink when he said "suck one."

That was my favorite, hands down. My kids loved it because of Stewie, my husband and I loved it because of Underdog, and then we all started cheering when Charlie Brown showed up. After 40 years Charlie Brown finally beats someone and wins a Coke. Priceless, although I'm sure Coca-Cola had to pay some serious cash to get good ole Charlie Brown.

Ditto.

My favorite was the Pepsi Max commercial.
I did like the one with the squirrel, too, the cricket screaming was hilarious.
CareerBuilder.com is coming up, I see. I lol'd when the lady's heart jumped out of her chest.
And Tide to Go was funnneeee... lol....

I did NOT like the E*Trade ads or the GoDaddy.com ones, either.

UnderArmour got the drool award though: all those muscles.... whew!!! :D

The expressions on the faces of LL Cool J and Busta are priceless.
