THE DAILY DIVERSION

I forgot a couple of things about the Super Bowl commercials yesterday.

First and foremost, many of them were based solely around violence. Don't get me wrong, I love some blood and guts, but really? That's all they can throw out there? Pretty weak folks! Pretty weak!

Secondly, unless you go to the theaters relatively often you wouldn't realize this, but... About half of the commercials from the game have been showing prior to movies for the last 6 months. The Coke ad (cartoon) where the "bad" guy turns good, well that one I saw back when I saw "The Prestige", and again when I saw "Smokin' Aces". The Honda CR-V (Crave) commercial? Same as the Coke commercial. All in all, there were probably 8 commercials which had already been seen.

So, to sum it up, again, they did a truly shitty job on the commercials for the Super Bowl, all except the Nationwide "Life comes at you fast" commercial with K-Fed. That one was amusing.

Okay, I'm finished ranting about that!
