Hey, let's talk about the important stuff, mmkay?

Sony Ericsson's Xperia Play (aka the Playstation Phone) is expected to be announced during a Super Bowl commercial (http://www.examiner.com/smartphones-in-national/sony-xperia-play-to-be-announced-during-a-super-bowl-commercial). Said to be very creepy Super Bowl commercial, at that. Surprisingly, I haven't watched it yet. :D

The livingsocial ad in pregame was terrible.Yes, and no. It got my attention, even though it made me throw up a little.

So far I've loved the Doritos ads, the Bud Light ads have been decent, and the Pepsi Max ad where the jealous wife hit the hot jogger chick with a can of Pepsi Max made me laugh out loud.

Hulu's already posting all the ads (http://www.hulu.com/adzone2011) ... I guess all the ones that have already aired, can't tell for sure.

LOVE the car commercial with the kid dressed up like Darth Vader and trying to use the force on things and the dad makes the car start and the kid freaks out.

Wow. Football fans who worried about the commercials.

The pussification of America continues...

And don't think for a second my opinion is related to my team being in the Super Bowl or to them losing. In years where the Steelers are not in the Super Bowl, I still wanna punch that guy who says, "did you see what that baby did?!?! Ahahahaha! That was sooooo funny".

Ghey!!!

Wow. Football fans who worried about the commercials.I wouldn't say "worried". I'd say "were entertained by".

It's the only time of the year I'll watch commercials. :: shrug ::

Yeah this one was really good.

I did really like the Groupon ones though because I absolutely hate those Susanne Summers type help the people in another country shit and glad someone is making fun of it.

That and when the dude says... uummmm cheese I absolutely lose it.

JB, your top 5 and mine might be in exact agreement.
