The Return of the Commercials

42 is the answer to the Ultimate Question
This year, that question was: “When will the Super Bowl commercials be good again?”
Remarkably absent were the riské commercials so prevalent in years past- which was good. So sit back and relax as I give you the Top 10 Commercials of Super Bowl 42.
10. Bud Light – Fly
A little lame, but still is half way decent overall

9. Bud Light – Fire
A little bit stronger of a showing, but not the best Bud commercial of the night- and no where close to beating out the Frogs

8. Sobe – Thriller
Not especially funny, but the one lizard eating the other is classic. Not as good as Andy Serkis’ version (or this one), but it still made it to #8

7. Budweiser – Rocky, Equine version
Strongest Bud showing of the night, but still a little flat (plenty of pun intended)

6. ETrade – Clown
The baby is completely correct in stating that the clown is in fact creepy.

5. Wall E
Who would have thought that a commercial with Toy Story characters would still be mildly entertaining? This would have been #1 had this dysfunctional robot admitted at the end that he was, in fact, a Mac

4. Bridgestone – Richard Simmons
Tempting to not steer away from the 3rd obstacle…

3. FedEx
I literally lolled when I saw this one. Spell checker not kicking in when I say “lolled” is a bonus.

2. Bridgestone – Screaming match
Pretty good. The bug makes the video.

1. ETrade – Puking baby
What’s not to like? Investment returns.. a cute baby with an adult voice (Stewie minus the accent), and random baby vomit.

Funny in premise, but not execution… Seriously though, that was on my list until I realized I had 11

Ok so the only one I didn’t really think was all that funny was the Budweiser Fly one…It would have been even funnier had the actually squashed Richard Simmons..and lastly I see baby puke everyday….They were my favorite

Some were mildly funny… I personally thought the Bridgestone commercials were the best.
Thanks for sharing. ^_^
