they preshowed 2 commercials apple's and bud's sexy commercial. but idont think its reliable. they are always making stuff up. ex: 9/11 2airplanes hit the tower at the same time. god! oh, i mean bob🙄
Along with the Matrix Reloaded trailer should be the new Hulk trailer, the new X2 trailer, possibly a new Daredevil trailer and a Charlie's Angels 2 trailer. Oh, and a new Terminator 3 trailer.
Other than that, I haven't been able to find a list of advetisers other than the above for the Superbowl.
New commercial or not, I'm sure Apple will have quite a few commercials in there somewhere.

LOL!!!! That's right I forgot all those corny Jerry like shows! Man that's funny!
Anyhow- back to the topic. "1984" would be cool in 2003, but something needs to change to have an impact on this economy. Why run such an expensive ad that really does not sell much? It'll excite the mac community, but we're sold already.

That's a bogus report. The only ads remaining are for the fourth quarter (if those aren't sold yet). There's no way they'd just now get the pre-halftime slot. We would have long ago heard about it.
Anyway, why would rerunning the 1984 ad do any good? It's a 20-year-old Mac. If anything, they would run a revised version with new models.
They won't do it this year, anyway. Makes more sense to do it next year, on the 20th anniversary--but it would be some sort of redo even than.
[Edit:] Also, see yesterday's Wall St. J. (marketplace Section), which lists the ads. No apple.

Seems that they are just like ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, and FOX. In fact I think Telemundo (or is it Univision?) is owned by NBC. I guess TV news in general not a reliable source of information.

The difference, is that most spanish stations will release informatin that they haven't confirmed yet, acting as if it was true. Sometimes it is, sometimes it isn't. I could probably call in saying that someone shot the pope, and they might say something about it. US news agencies usually make sure their informatin is relatively solid before using it, although sometimes they have been known to skip that step...
