Thought they sucked for the most part. I think the whole super bowl commercial thing peaked in the late 90's early 2000's. Now you get a real good one every couple years.

What the fuck was the point of the cats in the cradle Nissan commercial? I like the song, just didn't see why they played out the song to a shitty race car driver.

    And the nationwide commercial about kids dying was a real buzz kill.

    The esurance commercial with Walter White was pretty good. It's always good to hear say my name.

    The only commercial we found entertaining was the one where it seemed like the cable went out. All others just didn't really do it for me.

    And that kid dying ad? Really? I don't think that people will be remembering Nationwide in the way that they had hoped.

    I don't think that people will be remembering the Seahawks in the way that they had hoped, either. ~X(

    That was a horrible commercial. They must have hired the same ad agency that came up with "What can Brown do for you?"

    Everyone involved with that commercial should be fired as well as anyone at Nationwide who gave it the 4 million dollar green light.

    Yeah what was with that???

    Doritos with the hot girl with the baby on the plane and the Walter White ones were the only entertaining ones to me.

    Thought the 'throw like a girl' one had a great message but wtf does it have to do with tampons?

    I liked the puppy commercial.
    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    Terminator 5? 6? Is coming out. Arnold may be getting a bit too old for that role. It's almost getting sad now.

    And I only just became aware during the game of a new Jurassic Park coming out! Looks good.... but you'd think they'd have learned their lesson about building amusement parks with real dinosaurs by now....

    seems about the same concept to me:

    Premise[edit]

    Twenty-two years after the events of Jurassic Park, Isla Nublar, off Costa Rica's Pacific coast, now features a fully functioning dinosaur theme park, Jurassic World, as originally envisioned by John Hammond. This new park is owned by the Masrani Global Corporation. Owen (Chris Pratt), a member of the park's on-site staff, conducts behavioral research on the Velociraptors. At the corporation's request, the park's geneticists create the Indominus Rex,[5] a genetically modified hybrid dinosaur, to boost visitor attendance,[6] but it soon breaks loose and runs wild on the island, forcing the staff to consider unique measures to stop it.

    I didn't see the Jurassic World commercial during the Super Bowl. Or see/pay attention to many of the commercials. I did see a Jurassic World teaser trailer a few weeks ago, it wasn't enough to tell whether it was going to be cool or not. I'm looking forward to it though, I like all 3 of the others. Obviously the second two aren't as great, but they're still fun/entertaining.

    That would be the aforementioned Kate Upton. Justin Verlander's girlfriend.

    Yeah they're horrible for the most part. It's kinda silly that it's even a thing anymore. A good portion of the viewing audience actually "cares" about the commercials. I've been "shhhed" during the commercials before. Women.....

    That was beyond horrible. I made fun of it for a few mintues following it. But in spite of that, when I tried to reference it at the end of the game, nobody got it. After Wilson threw the pick, I said, "Well at least his TV didn't fall off the wall and crush him" and everybody was like "what?"

    Yeah that was the only one I laughed at. I liked when he picked the sloth and Jerry Rice says "Off-the-field issues" and Doug Flutie replies "Not a locker-room guy"
