    Chrysler knocked their spot out of the park.

    The Bud Light dog ad was pretty funny.

    Loved the VW Darth Vader ad.

    The Camaro ad with the teacher was decent.

    NFL killed with their last ad also.

    The best ad was an NFL house ad. Second, the VW. Third, the Detroit ad. Honorable mention, the Bud ad with the Elton John gunslinger. The rest, uh, I forget.

    I'll give the title to the pug/doritos ad. any ad with animals automatically gets the nod. Bud had one Clydesdale spot. It gets runnerup honors because, well, it had Clydesdales in it.

    I can't wait to see Cowboys vs. Aliens. Indiana Jones and James Bond playing cowboys fighting aliens. It can't miss. I also can't wait to see Captain America because well, it's Captain freakin America.

    My favorite one-liner from the Super Bowl party I attended, during the Ozzy-Beiber ad: "Now's your chance, Ozzy, bite his head off!"

    The e-Trade one had to be the best, if only because it just may have made Starman's head explode. Bwahahaha!

    They've used it before:



    And using a song that uses your product to make a biting social commentary about materialism may not be so "natural" just because it mentions your product by name.

    I loved that ad, but I still wouldn't buy a Chrysler.

    We Bengals fans appreciate how the team's mention in the NFL house ad was a guy in an orange-and-black wheelchair. Unless I missed something...sheesh.

    We sure that wasn't who they're planning to take in the first round of the draft?

    Groupon was a riot. For 10 seconds I thought "what the hell is this, a political ad on the Super Bowl?" I'm sure Timothy Hutton will take a lot of shit from his Hollywood friends for mocking their activism, but my whole party got a good solid laugh out of that one.
