02.08.10 THE 5 MOST MEMORABLE SUPER BOWL ADS
While there were some disappointing trends last night, not every ad that aired during the Super Bowl was about not wearing pants or how much women totally harsh your buzz. Doritos and Bud Light, for example, appealed to the chip-eating, piss-swilling demographic with stupid, unrealistic gags.
Thankfully, a couple companies decided to hire ad agencies that employ people under the age of 35 who use the Internet. Here are the five ads that stuck out for being at least somewhat clever and original — and, most importantly, for being memorable.
5. Motorola’s MEGAN FOX NUDE IN A BATHTUB:
The crowd I watched with appreciated the masturbation joke. Afterwards, I said, “Wait, what was she advertising?” The room went quiet for a moment before someone ventured, “Like… a phone? Or chips. Or soda. Or something.”
4. Google’s Parisian Love:
Frankly, I didn’t like this one all that much. Some jackass can’t spell “Louvre” and doesn’t know who Truffaut is, yet he picks up a French woman because of his Internet searching skills. Whatever, man. The only woman Google can get you is a Russian bride. Or possibly Thai whores.
3. Denny’s Screaming Chickens:
I can’t defend liking this ad. It’s just a bunch of chickens screaming, and yet that’s exactly why I like it. I don’t know, Space Chicken’s silent scream just really worked for me. Probably because I was drunk.
2. Kia Sorento’s partying toys:
Sock monkey on a jet ski, teddy bear in a hot tub with a sexy girl, a tattoo being stitched on, a robot dance-off — there’s nothing about this commercial I didn’t like. Applause.
1. Audi’s Green Police:
Cheap Trick, eco jokes, and — why yes, that IS a tamandua on a leash.
You can watch all the Super Bowl ads here. Although why you’d want to do that, I don’t know.
