Late - but better late then never - the SuperBowl being over, half of the discussion is about the game, the other half is about the ads during the game. If you pay $2.6Million for 30 seconds, you better show something memorable. The internet gives everyone now the ability to take a look at the ads. I don't know all the sites publishing the ads, but iFilm has the 2007 Ads here, you can also see Super Bowl Classics, the Most Popular, or the 'banned ads'.
And this years ads? Perhaps you can say, more of the usual? Car company commercial are still booooring, and go so far as destroying the advertised car (dropping it off a helicopter) or want you to feel sorry for a robot (some unemployed workers might think differently). I mean these are the memorable car commercials to me, not because they are good, but because I find them questionable...
The good commercials are not surprisingly the same as in the past: beer commercials! - the Best one perhaps by Bud? But hard to say. On the positive side, Coke finally back with solid commercial(s) (where did Pepsi go?), on the negative side SalesGenie stands out. What are they doing? Increasing sales or what? But not by advertising.
The half-time show? Prince - I don't like him too much ... but 'Purple Rain' (which I actually like) got a new meaning during a soggy half-time show. Also, the act while you saw him playing his guitar as a shadow against a huge fabric looked 'strange', not as bad as Janet last year, but if you want to be offended, you might be able to .... don't know, perhaps I'm over-analyzing ....
