Sooooo...Remember when you used to watch the Superbowl, spot after spot, and thought "wish I thought of that," in amazement of the brilliant conceptual work? Those were the days.
Last night seemed like lots of re-hashed creative ideas that looked like they came out of the first 20 minutes of a brainstorm.
These were my only highlights of creative wondermont:
+ Alice Cooper. Excellent casting.
+ Taste the Smoke. Excellent copywriting/tag line.
+ If stains could talk. Excellent execution.
+ Coke. Excellent family entertainment.
+ Suck One. The only line from the entire night that has a chance of working its way into pop culture. (Ironically, that would have been a good tag line for the Justin Timberlake/Pepsi spot, too.)
I'm just going to work "suck one" into my conversation all day today. Just to see how many times I can do that. You should try it too.

as predicted, my votes are for the screaming animals ad and the "don't wake up the mama badger ad"
and yes, I actually applauded the dalmation training the clydesdale spot
if my super bowl watching crew is any indicator, i agree about suck one. donkeylips isn't getting as much pop culture love as i thought either. amp could have leveraged salute your shorts perhaps. e*trade had an underestimated the creepiness line that could stick a bit. coke still delivers a smile through content. as a planner, i thought the audi ad was interesting from a strategic perspective. though, i always heard "your strategy is showing" is a bad thing. "old luxury just got put on notice" = strategy in the ppt. still deciding how i feel about the execution.
