tiffanie referred to this somewhat offhandedly yesterday, but i just found out that google video has all of the super bowl commercials nicely lumped together in one place.

in case you didn’t catch them.
or were watching Football.

my general impression after the game was that they weren’t as good, on the whole, as they’ve been in the past, but it’s kind of fun to have them all in one place, and a few are pretty funny.
i liked:

• emerald nuts (i have no idea what they do, but i thought it was damn funny, and stand by that even after tripping over some stats and this quote from medialife magazine: *And Emerald Nuts, which made several top 10 lists last year, scored very low this year with an odd ad that combined machete enthusiasts and a druid.*
  sounds like comic gold to me… ;)
• fed ex: stick
• dove: campaign for real beauty (jacki mentions this campaign in a recent comment thread on erik’s blog, and i have been intending to add my own two cents (but alas, i am a pitiful slacker))
• sprint: locker room (this was the only one i could recall from memory after the super bowl, which is somewhat pathetic since i am listing 425 of them now that i have the links to jog my memory. i think it just says something about the lasting impression of physical comedy… or the fact that lucy brought it up as her favorite… yeah, that might have made it stick.)
• sprint: couch
• mastercard: macgyver

and budweiser: the wave was also pretty fun, though it would get higher props somehow if someone really took the time to figure it out for real. but they didn’t.

and finally, in a lovely display of the potential next wave of internet-driven commercial fandom, google led me to discover these, which i didn’t see on sunday because i must have been snacking or going to the bathroom, but which nevertheless amuse me:

• sierra mist
• bud light: secret fridge
• united: dragon

enough rampant commercialism.
yaargh.
