The Top 5 Super Bowl Ads of 2015 (Super Bowl XLIX)


This year's batch of Super Bowl ads were good, however, there were more ads that had a message about something than ads with humor. I felt that there should be more balance but with more funny commercials next year. Nevertheless, I thought the Super Bowl game was great, possibly, one of the best games ever because both teams, The New England Patriots and the Seattle Seahawks, played extremely well with the game ending with The Patriots winning 28-24 earning their fourth Super Bowl title.

So, here are my 5 favorite Super Bowl ads of 2015 along with a few honorable mentions:

5. Fiat

At first, I thought we were going to get a Pfizer or a Viagra Super Bowl commercial. It would've still been funny. But, since I get that this was in Italy and it was building up to the product regarding the car, Fiat, then they will get consumers to rush to get a Fiat.

4. Snickers

The Brady Bunch+Danny Trejo+Steve Buscemi and you got a Robert Rodriguez crossover with The Brady Bunch. Nevertheless, it was funny and nostalgic.

3. Coca-Cola #MakeItHappy

This was a fresh take on how social media is used today with mostly a negative vibe turning into a positive and happier vibe and spread around happiness all over the world. It is a very good ad that makes you feel good.

2. Budweiser

I had this commercial at #2 because we already have this one that is reminiscent and similar last year but it still worked on many audiences. I do have one advice for Budweiser: Don't be too predictable next year and start a little fresh with another original concept. It'll make the ad agency or team think harder come up with maybe a better ad for next year.

1. Doritos

This is the ad that I laughed the hardest with the guy trying to get mostly everybody to avoid sitting with him during the whole fight until he finds a hot woman and then...well, watch the commercial. It's hilarious!


HONORABLE MENTIONS (The runner-ups):

McDonald's

Clash of Clans

Always

eSurance

(3-way TIE because of the fatherly theme of the ads) Toyota Camry

(TIE) Dove Men+Care

(TIE) Nissan

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (2007), PG-13, ★★1/2

We're about halfway through the Harry Potter franchise and this is the turning point in which I found the material to be darker and more mature when the storyline surrounding Lord Voldemort grows. And, also we see another new and fresh direction as David Yates comes into the spotlight to finish off the franchise with the last four movies. I remember watching the trailer in the theaters and I was excited for this movie as it was mostly action-packed. The bottom line is despite the camaraderie between the young Hogwarts characters and a real-good action sequence in the climax, it is a choppily edited and more grounded movie that does not provoke much magic or memorable scenery. Harry Potter (Daniel Radcliffe) is enduring a hot summer and Dudley (Harry Melling) provokes him by making fun of the fact that Harry is haunted by Cedric's death from The Goblet of Fire and also his mom's death. As a storm approaches, demeanors come into the tunnel sucking Dudley's so...

The Best 10 Talking Movie Animals

I have to admit when thinking about doing a list of the best movie talking animals, live-action or animated, I thought to myself: "This may be an easy list to do." I was certainly proven wrong because when researching every likable character, it was down to about 25-30. What that proves is that animators, storytellers and filmmakers work real hard on not just its special effects, hand drawn or computer animations, but its persona. How do we, the audience or the viewers, connect with a talking animal? How do you all get us to like the animal? About each of the characters I list have a different personality and charm that we have immediately or have grown to adjust to. Plus, I thought that this was a fun list to do bringing back some of the childhood talking animals that I grew up to watch and also maybe show some of much little cousins the characters that are lovable. 10.
