Each year, the country looks forward to the millions of dollars spent towards creating the most memorable, comical, informational Super Bowl commercials. Some watch the sports game simply to see the seven minutes of commercial in between. In today’s fast-paced, technological society, we are able to fast forward through everyday commercials that one may find boring, dreary, and a waste of time. Instead on this day, people tune into the Super Bowl to watch the new, innovative commercials. In my opinion, one of my favorite commercials is the Chevy Camaro entitled ‘Miss Evelyn’. It is narrated by two young men fantasizing about this new car, its attractive drivers, and its ‘outrageous’ abilities. The narration is comical and relatable to many, if not all, young men. What I found most appealing was after I took away the actual marketable/selling aspect of the commercial. I found most interest in the actual filming/action of the commercial. There are car chases, helicopters, flying cars, high speed chases, etc. which create for a high quality, quite expensive creation. Though the tone of the commercial is comical, the actual cinematography of the commercial is impressive.
The commercial I found to be one of the worst of the hundreds played on Super Bowl Sunday was for Telefora, a florist company. It starred an everyday man who struggled to find the words to express his love for his significant other. Alongside him was country star, Faith Hill, who attempted to help him come up with a message. They realize only Telefora can help them come up with the right words. Overall, I thought the commercial was boring and lifeless. It lacked comedy and though it had a story line, it was extremely lacking.

Amanda, I completely agree with you! Car commercials are usually huge during the super bowl. Even though we picked different favorites for super bowl commercials, we both picked similar commercials. You picked the commercial about Chevy Camaro, while I would obviously pick the commercial about the VW. Both commercials could attract a large audience ranging in all different viewers. Each of the cars in real life are very nice and are a large seller.

I completely agree with you when your discussing the Teleflora commercial. I almost hate that commercial because of the words it uses. If the commercial used different words the commercial would have been better. However, because of the improper words they used, I think that the commercial is just wrong.
