Hasta La Creative!

Ok, boys and girls – it’s game time!
There were a few notable ads, including Audi, Pepsi Diet Max and Underarmor. We’re also twittering the spots as they air here.
First Quarter:
Bud Light – “Fire” – :30 – Pretty much expect type of work for Bud Light (ie. sophomoric humor).
Agency: DDB, Chicago
It’s everything you want in a beer, plus the ability to breathe fire. Guy lights candles by breathing fire and then a cat walks by, he sneezes and fire shoots out his mouth as well.

Audi – “Godfather” :60 – Nice spoof of the horse head in the bed, instead with front grill and headlights of a car.
Agency: Venables Bell & Partners, San Francisco
Ad promotes the R8 sportscar and is the brand’s first Super Bowl spot in 20 years. The ad referenced “The Godfather” and featured actor Alex Rocco, who portrayed the character of Moe Greene in the first Godfather. The spot was shot on location at the Fleur de Lys house in Los Angeles.

Diet Pepsi Max – “Nod” – :60 – Great spot – very Super Bowl-esque and what we have come to expect of the ads.
Agency: BBDO NY
This star-studded spot features Joe Buck, Troy Aikman, Busta Rhymes, LL Cool J, Missy Elliot and every day people falling asleep. The spot is a nod (pun intended people!) to SNL’s “Night at the Roxy”, complete with “What is Love” by Haddaway.
