Second Half of Commercials in Super Bowl

First Break--
Coca Cola--The Star Wars like things was ok, but not great. Seems they are always trying to chase the "Buy the world a coke" commercial from years gone by.
Bridgestone--Getting Car tires stolen in outer space with rap music. I laughed. Not in the top 5, but maybe the top 10
Denny's Commercial--Free Grand Slam. This looks good, and is competing with IHOP. New commercial on a recently developed theme.
Monster--The mooses rear end commercial is good. My wife was laughing out loud.

Second Break--
Budweiser--Another Clydsdale commercial. Sentimental and sweet, but not outsanding.
Race to Witch Mountain--Isnt this a remake?

Third Break--
Transformers Commercial--Dont want to see this.
Career Builders--It may be time. This is a brilliant commercial. I LOVED it. My favorite so far. Especially the punching small animals part

Fourth Break
Coca Cola--Coke botthe thefts by the animals in the park. This was a creative and fun commercial.
Frosted Flakes--A look at us, we are helping people commercial. I hate those. And another commercial driving people to the website. Why does Frosted Flakes need web traffic?
Conan--I liked this Conan OBrien Commercial Better.


Fifth Break
Southwest Motors Commercials--Good commercial. Homeof the halfprice car
American Family Commercial--blah blah blah.
Honda Commercial--Also boring and samey

Sixth Break
Freedom Financial Services--Refinancing. Boring
Springs Hosting--Interesting local commercial specially made for Super Bowl

Seventh Break
Hyundai Assurance--Again Hyundai. They are working hard to move into the US market in force.
Coke Zero--This spoof on the old coke Mean Joe Green Commercial is great. Extremely well done.
Cash for Gold--Mc Hammer and Ed McMahon commercial is hillarious. I love it when commercials make fun of themselves

Eighth Break
Vizio--Very simple. Interesting concept. Not sure it worked.
Taco Bell--Again the same commercial. It is somewhat funny but....
GE--I like the Tinman commercial. Good stuff

Ninth Break
Hulu--Funny because it makes fun of television and computer stuff. "An evil plot to destroy the world...enjoy. "

Tenth Break
GE--Old wind energy commercial
Pepsi--Commerical like an SNL skit. It was of the better half, but not great. Spoof of McGuiver.

Eleventh Break
Bud Light Lime--Hip hop music. A scene that changes from winter to summer. A decent commercial to introduce a new product.
GoDaddy.com--another Go Daddy commercial that leads you to the web site to see the more risque version. Smart marketing I think.

The best is still to come. Joe Namath is presenting the trophy. Maybe he'll be drunk and try to kiss Santonio Holmes.
