Consumerist’s Super Bowl Ad Liveblog [Superbowl]
the wonderful fantastic super trundle ad liveblog kicks off now! click this post’s subtitle to go inside…
This Hulu player, which you may or may not see depending on how slammed their servers are, is supposed to be updated with the most recent ads after they air:
If you can’t see it, hit refresh or CastTV has all the ads up.
10:27 Ok I guess all the $3 mil ads are over. WINNERS: Denny’s mobster one, Denny’s nanapus, Cars.com, and both Coke ads. LOSERS: GoDaddy - for proving that it is possible to have too much breasts - all the Budweiser ads featuring Cyldsedales - get over it! it’s just a freakin’ horse- and Vizio - because you know what even if your ad is just a voiceover with text, I think it still costs you three million dollars. And with that, I’m out. Thanks for hanging with us! - Ben 10:23 Did he just thank Obama? 10:19 NetJets - If you’re not enough of an asshole to buy a jet, rent one with us. 10:18 HAHA “nanapus!” Denny’s had an ad where there was a banana peel being puppeted by strings and like singing “nanapus, nanapus.” Then it got stomped and they said, “Ready for a serious breakfast? Denny’s.” Actually, no, I am not ready for a serious breakfast, more banana puppeting please. Anyone know who did Denny’s ads? I want to make them a charm bracelet. 10:17 Etrade baby plays golf. 10:16 You know, the Heineken concept is inspired by Dos Equis “The Most Interesting Man In The World” series, I believe. 10:14 I though the Smart Balance butter ad was going to be like an astroturfing thing by the fast food industry about why trans fats are good. 10:14 USA network comes in with their own multi-cast commercial. USA network is all about programming bargains. 10:11 Some say the pass was totally incomplete. See, it was more important for American self-esteem for the steel industry to win, it was download sci-fi movie a hidden rider in the stimulus package. Come the economic apocalypse, birds can still pick the eyes of the dead if they have to - but what’s steel going to eat? 10:09 Steelers win! Ad agencies lose. 10:07 I guess it’s now safe for me to start drinking my snobby trappist ale. 10:05 NBC has now officially switched to “the game is more interesting than the ads” mode. 10:02 Touchdown! 26-23 Steelers. 10:00 WHOA great catch by the Steelers in the endzone! Is it good? 9:59 GoDaddy - “because chicks never buy domain names” 9:58 dtenery re: GoDaddy ads: “seriously, does danica patrick need money that bad? it’s sad… 1 step forward with women in racing and 2 steps back with women only being useful to sell things if they flash their rack” 9:53 GoDaddy comes with another ad that’s about boobs for no particular reason except for the fact that they’re known for being the guys who run Super Bowl ads that try to show lots of boobs. At least this year they didn’t have the Jr AV Club president edit it between 3 VCRs. 9:53 Bud Light Lime - tried trope - the product travels and creates glowing effect in its wake. 9:52 Note to the Chuck ad-writers: If they were in 1-D, they’d be dots. You know, like pinheads or something. Chuck is supposed to be super smart and he doesn’t even know basic geometry? 9:50 Oh and for anyone watching the actual game, the Cards just pulled ahead with a major play with 2 and change left to go in the 4th. 9:48 Could “punching the koala” supplant “jump the shark” as catchphrase? 9:47 Denny’s website is also slammed. I predict an article in NYT’s business section tomorrow chewing the cud on what it means for America for advertisers to not have their servers ready for the so-called “advertising your URL on the Super Bowl” effect. 9:41 A tipster says that was the only Miller High Life ad. Just Wendell saying, “High Life!” Sad. I had high hopes for that campaign. At least they stuck to their “we’re not gonna waste a bunch of money” ethos. 9:33 The Pepsi ad is the McGrubber spot from last night’s SNL. “PEPSUBER!” All brands taste more delicious combined. It’s like having a forkfull of steak speared with pineapple and dipped in gravy! 9:33 GE wind energy - full of hot air. 9:30 drjayphgk: “You missed the most important detail from the Cash4Gold.com commercial: MC Hammer still owns pants.” 9:29 “Cerebal gelatinizing shows” may have post-game stickability. 9:28 Alec Baldwin: “You know what it takes to sell streaming tv on the internet? Brass balls.” 9:27 Did you know Hulu’s secret headquarters is located inside the HOLLYWOOD sign? 9:26 Vizio gets hit by karma. Talks smack about other tvs, but their server can’t handle the surge. 9:24 download horror GE - Wizard of Oz strawman rolling around in power transformer. Guess he really does have straw for brains. Good thing they didn’t try it with the Tin Man …
