Those Super Bowl commercials

I loved the Tubi commercial, though I absolutely had no idea what it was for until the end. Does Tubi mostly show horror movies, because the rabbits made me think of Donnie Darko and the falling down the hole bit was very reminiscent of IT. Dumb question I guess, since the slogan explains it, but when I think of “rabbit holes” I think of web sites, not movie channels.

I like the commercial, but it ends by saying the vehicle is coming “late 2024”, so it’s about eighteen months away.

People don’t typically drink beer in commercials. I’m pretty sure the dancing to the hold music couple was drinking Pepsi,… or Coke, or something like that.

No, Tubi doesn’t mostly show horror movies to my knowledge-- it seems like a grab bag of old TV shows and movies of varying genres. A year or two ago I watched every Columbo on Tubi.

Heh, I was getting a 'Donnie Darko / IT" vibe as well, as if an army of Pennywise clowns were cosplaying as rabbits.

FYI, that was a commercial for Bud Light and the dancing couple was the actor Miles Teller and his wife Keleigh. (He was in the Top Gun sequel, among other things.)

Did anyone have a positive reaction to the idea that it is supposedly a good thing that you can buy dresses for under $10? What kinda pollution and worker exploitation is going on where to enable that?

I also thought that was strange. Shopping like a Billionaire, but buying cheap ass junk? I don’t think that’s how billionaires shop.

I thought the Sarah McLachlan spot was a little bit mean…

But I laughed. :laughing:

My hypothesis: It’s the SNL problem. You only remember the really great ads. You forget all the crap ones and forget the years where there weren’t any great ones.

Sure, billionaire ladies wear dresses only once… because they are custom made for the event and then returned to the designer. You wear a $10 dress once because at the end of the evening it is already falling apart.

It was a total of probably less than 12 seconds air time, but for some odd reason I laughed hardest at Ozzie’s lines:

Hamm and Brie were fun too. I always like seeing Hamm in ads; he’s a great actor who isn’t afraid of self-deprecation or just silliness.

Another thumbs down for the giant rabbit ad. I also had the reaction “WTF is this? Whatever they are advertising, I am not buying it.”

That was filmed about a mile from where I live.

It seemed to me like it was marketing itself to young women who don’t have $30 in their checking accounts to shop like maniacs.

Agree with this. Another “WTF?” for me was the Bradley Cooper and mom schtick.

And the Pepsi/Acting? one was a swing and a miss, IMHO.

One of those under ten-dollar clothing companies is a Chinese company called Shein. I don’t shop there but my understanding is the people who do buy stuff often.

A swig and a miss?

I’ve had a day to think about it and I still can’t decide if Ben Affleck and Matt Damon are really making a movie titled Air or if that was just a Nike ad.

Apparently it’s real.

And apparently it doesn’t feature Michael Jordan at all. Maybe they should’ve called it Air Minus Air.

Too bad. As a sneaker ad, it was clever (although imitative of the Dundee ad campaign). As a trailer for an actual movie, it doesn’t look very promising.
