I'm curious what people though in general of the Superbowl ads. Do you have a favorite. Did you like them?

Worst Super Bowl ads I’ve ever seen. Worst halftime show, too.

I also thought the "cram it in the boot" Mini Cooper Pepsi ad with the guy thinking over and over "I want to sleep with her. I want to sleep with her" was vulgar and offensive.

I completely agree on the Doritos ad.

Many of the ads were vulgar.

The Bud Light product placement ad was one of the few I actually liked.

We’ve already decided that the Darth Vader ad will be replicated on some of my buddy’s grandkids at some future date. (it’s ALL in the set-up)

“I did like the Career Builder monkey parking ad, although I’m not sure why they used monkeys.”

It was a takeoff on a previous add about finding a new job because you work with chimps.

So what we have here is an Avenger/Sebring made over to look better as it sits in the airport rental car lots.

The 'new' Chrysler 200 reminds me of previous generation Hyundai.

i was shocked at the tacky faith hill ad. i think it
was for pepsi. i know she supports dems but i
was still surprised that she agreed to it.
vulgar, sophomoric and really inappropriate
for family show.

Did you note the socialist imagery in that Detroit ad?

“Doritos. “Grandpa??”

Best commercial of the game.

The Darth Vader kid was cute. The one with the monkeys in the car came in second for me. Beyond that, worthless. As were the movie promotions.

There was a lot of in-your-face sexual innuendo that was pretty awful. One of the first ads showed some guy changing from manly-man into a cross-dresser. I don’t remember who the ad was for.

The best line was Ozzy’s: “How many bloody Gs are there?”

I liked the Darth Vader add. The Tibet add made me chuckle as well.

The Detroit add was well done, but.... it was made by GM, Detroit is still a horrible horrible city, and Eminem (I don’t understand how he’s a respectable artist now) is still a horrible person. Just thought the commercial was well done.

Same here. That finger licking pants smelling ad from Doritos was disgusting. And what was the other ad with the guy cross-dressing? Now that was gross.

There were a few good ones. I loved the ad with the kid in the Darth Vader costume.

Ozzie calling Bieber a girl - that was the one I remember!!

We get Biebered out as I have a 10 year old granddaughter who thinks he’s the bee’s knees - I can’t STAND him, so I did enjoy the Ozzie commercial

Watched the puppybowl mostly. Just switched back and forth to watch a few ads.

VW/Darth Vader commercial was the winner for me.

Humorous, cute, clean and memorable.

Not just the flubbed Anthem, but the coordinated flyover over a closed dome stadium. Who planned that move?
