Super Bowl Commercials

Anyone find a single commerical worth remembering tonight? I found them all terrible. Seems like they spent all of the money on the time slot and forgot to budget in the cost of actually creating something significant haha.
 
I like the Paul Harvey tribute to farmers (Dodge RAM)

and the Budweiser spot where the horse rememebers and chases after the trainer.

Both excellent and memorable.

Thumbs down to Go Daddy and Calvin Kein.:thumbdown
 
Typical Superbowl.
Most ranged from simply non-memorable to stupid to disturbing.

GoDaddy was disturbing.
The one right after it made no sense (don't recall the product).
There were several that left me thinking "What product was that?" And that is a big danger with making really cool spots that aren't closely tied to the product through other marketing. You remember the spot, but you can't remember the product.. that's wasted ad money.

Kia had a couple of good spots.
The first Coke spot was good, didn't care for the "race" spots.
Star Trek made me want to see it... but that was destined to happen anyways.
Likewise for Iron Man III (though I missed Avengers).
Bud Light with Stevie Wonder was entertaining.
VW wasn't as bad as some made it out to be... but it would have worked better in 1990... people have pretty much forgotten Bobby McFerrin
I didn't even notice the Klein spot, but large segments of that game could not hold my attention.

I'm sure there were others that I enjoyed and detested, but those were the spots that stuck out.
 
I guess I am old fashioned, I liked hearing Paul Harvey's distinctive delivery for the Farmer's commercial (Dodge Ram). Its the one that stuck with me.
 
Was there any sport amongst the commercials? This is where I'm glad we have the BBC!

Watched the first two games of the Rugby Six Nations on Saturday and not a commercial in sight!

I liked the Audi commercial where the kids goes to Prom alone in Dad's Audi. Only one I remembered without reading this thread.

Needs milk and a bidet!
Paul Harvey farmers one was good..until the end and it ended up being a Dodge Ram commercial.

and Psy and the pistachio one. that was funny.

I went to bed after the 3rd quarter though so missed all the other.
 
Star Trek and Iron Man 3 were givens already. I'm almost wondering if it was even worth airing the commercials. I didn't catch much of the game because it would be difficult for me to care less about it, but this one made me actually laugh aloud.
