Best Super Bowl Commercials

-Painted Fan- · February 05, 2006, 05:49:47 pm

The Super Bowl is known for some of the best, most inventive, and expensive commercials to be shown on television. I know it's early (midway through the 1st quarter right now), but what are your favs.
As of now, my pick goes to the "Magic Fridge" Bud Light commercial.
Burger King was inventive, and a little weird (the women dressed in the "toppings dresses" piling on each other as the final "bun dress" comes down).
The Fed Ex caveman one was great, as was the Bud bear one.

"That killed him."

The Bud Light bear one was hilarious, too.

-Painted Fan- · February 05, 2006, 06:16:56 pm

Check that. The Bud "streaker" one is hilarious.
"I didn't need to see that one."
So far, Bud has owned the commercials.
Ameriquest one was great also.

The Bud commercial with the bear was the funniest with the Magic Frig next. I liked the chimp commercial also.

Stones are terrible and I grew up with them. Hmmm I never liked them in the 60's so I guess I am consistent.

"We bow down to the Magic Fridge."

I liked the Sprint one. "Crime deterrent"...lol. The commericals are not near as good this year as they usually are! What's up with that?

My favorite was the Budweiser horse one when the baby pulled the cart and the big horse was pushing it from behind.

Streaker and the magic refrigerator.

Blue Collar · February 05, 2006, 10:16:15 pm

Whenever the the guy tackled girl in the football Jersey. And then later on tackled the guy. It was funny. Overall i didn't see any commerical that really stuck out or was mostly talked one.

CF_fan_#1 · February 05, 2006, 10:22:26 pm

I noticed that there weren't too many new commercials, there were a few, but not like usual.

RD™ · February 05, 2006, 10:24:31 pm

Magic Fridge by far.

HA_Fan · February 05, 2006, 10:44:22 pm

The woman on the airplane. "Don't judge too quickly."

Father Guido · February 05, 2006, 10:54:24 pm

Magic Fridge, then the woman in the guys lap in the plane, "don't judge too quickly". Also the one with the Clydesdale colt "pulling" the wagon.

The fly one was better.........I thought there was some really funny ones this year.

My favorite was the FedEx commercial with the cavemen. I died laughing.

The "Don't judge too quickly" commercials for Ameriquest were also very interesting, particularly the one on the airplane. When I laughed at the other one, the one with the zapped fly, I got a harsh comment about how that wasn't funny.... tried to explain to no avail that it was the situational irony that provoked my response.

Guys, hurry up, the magic fridge is back! Magic fridge, magic fridge, magic fridge! ROFLMAO

The ads are all collected here at IFILM, listed alphabetically and viewable with a mouse click.

Both Ameriquest were excellent. I would rate them a tie for the best... along with the Magic Fridge

Magic Fridge and the FedEX cavemen for sure. Yes, there were not that many new ones like there usually is?

Yeah, I agree the quantity seems to be off but I think that the quality and creativity have improved tremendously, helped along by liberal doses of CGI and humor.

What I like is that many of the ads nowdays hook you from the start with something bizarre or twisted but they don't let you know what they are advertising until the end. You are almost forced to watch due to the suspense. Sort of micro-short story in 15 - 30 seconds. The best ads are serials and seek to make you react, typically with laughter but sometimes with a groan.

I liked the "Lost" commercial that used the old video of the late Robert Palmer.
"Might as well face it you're addicted to LOST".

And I see that Michael J. Fox and Tom Selleck are joining Boston Legal.
It's good to see Michael back on the screen.
Keep up the fight.

I wonder how much it cost to use Shaq, Sugar Ray, etc. in the Desperate Housewives ads?

I thought so too!

However, some folks have too much up close and personal experience with folks dying in hospitals and don't quite see the humor in it, instead empathizing with the family members standing in the doorway.

Humor about such things is good in my opinion.

The FoxSports site is a bit easier to use, but it does not have all the ads like the IFILM site does. FoxSports just has the most popular ones. I like the IFILM player, you can scroll all the ads there once you open it.

The death of a fly is no laughing matter, my friend.
