And dreamy Tim.

Though neither of these spots really did it for me. Snickers seems to be trying to make it fresh and punchy but it’s as stale as last week’s gym socks. Worn twice. And the tackle on Tebow’s mom is SO badly CG’d. I see Boost trying to go viral like last year’s Miller High’s 1 second ad but not getting anywhere close to the punch Miller packs.

Doritos “Play Nice” tries to surprise…I love the kid but, it’s too easy. Like cheating. And I thought Bud Light’s “Voice Box” was going to follow the old Budweiser “Whasssup” styles. But no.

The Hangover Part 2, brought to you by Bridgestone. VERY disappointed, considering last year’s Mr & Mrs Potato Head was my favourite.

GoDaddy.com continues with their GoDaddy girl campaign. Yawn.

Nothing impressed me in the second quarter.

Third quarter, Megan Fox and Motorola, cheating. I LOVE the VW Punching Game, it was SO EASY for them, and so cleverly done up to remind people of the VW line, not just the Beetle. A few chuckles, like hitting Gramps in the nards, and the EMS boys. It’s gone online to Facebook now too. Michelob, how many times has Song 2 been used in a commercial already?

E*Trade continues with the babies! Google’s Parisian Love has a nice touch. Simple. It works. Kia’s Joy Ride is cute, but very much for the young moms I think. Love the Sock Monkey riding the bull :) Don’t recognize the other toys though, but of course I’m not the target. Who did Round Up’s ad? Waste of money.

Emerald’s Mixed Nuts? Mixed feelings. I’m creeped out by the balding pedo man in the skin tight neon-ness. Budweiser brings in a friend for the Clydesdale horsies. I love moo-cows. They must be successful with this campaign, they’ve been doing it for years now.
Denny’s Chickens are doing it for me at all. I’m more annoyed than anything. I am liking Audi’s Green Police spot. If there are more coming from them, I could see it catching on nicely. Maybe. We’ll see.

And isn’t Charles Barkley BASKETBALL??? Why get an NBA’er to do SuperBowl commercials??? So confused. And it’s a TERRIBLE song…it might’ve have worked if it had some beat to it, it’s hardly memorable. The final Doritos ad was funny. But eh…I much preferred the campaign for their double flavours.

Well…I learned more about football today. Still unsure of alot of things, but I’m getting there. Yay for the Saints.
