Usually we end up getting superbowl commercial commentary scattered throughout various threads and then someone ends up making a thread halfway through the game. So here I am, making a discussion about it up front.
So… yay… commercials. Might as well throw any non-football content in here, too, like the halftime show or whatever. There’s a thread for football content here: NFL 2021: The Super Bowl
My favorite part of the game.
Another dinosaur movie? Remind me, are the dinosaurs DC or Marvel?
The McD’s “Uhhhhhhh…” commercial is flashback-inducing for anyone who’s ever worked a drive-thru.
Okay. Little Peggy was very cute, and now I want my own Peggy.
It’s definitely realistic. I can’t imagine that I’ll want to see it often in the future, though.
Just saw the Dolly Parton commercial. All-in-all, not Super Bowl quality, but it does have one funny part. (And I love Dolly!)
Honestly, I’m a little excited about the Jurassic World flick. Them bringing the OG characters together with the new characters is actually something that sounds fun. Plus if it’s the conclusion of the franchise I’m in.
QR code bouncing for 30 seconds? I’m not gonna read it.
They correctly predicted my inability to ignore it.
Bringing back characters from old movies feels like stage 4 of some Hollywood formula to distract us from them having zero new ideas by selling our own nostalgia back to us.
You’re absolutely correct, but I really liked that first movie. In this specific instance I’m willing to allow it.
So you read the qr code? Where’d it lead?
Posted in the other thread, but it’s an ad for Coinbase. Takes you to a page to sign up for a promotion for new customers for their crypto exchange.
I liked the Doritos one with the sloth and the beatboxing fox, and the next one with the callback to the Rock-a-fire Explosion.
Pant…Dr. Strange Commercial…pant…cant breath…cant breath…
That was a roller coaster. Barbie realizes the crushing dystopia we live in where ultra-wealthy people are pricing out normal people from having a place to live, but… rocket mortgage… so… okay… or something.
That was a real commercial? Got my vote for worst of the night.
Part 2 of Dolly/Miley for T-mobile underwhelms.
I think everyone loves Dolly Parton and stooping for cell phones feels below her.
Pretty much all the “funny” celeb ads are pure cringe.
