Super Bowl XLI Apple Ad?

[TC2COOL]

You mean football with craploads of protective gear... and without using your foot on the ball.

You step in front of a 300+ pound man and see what you can do. (That's 22 Stone for you Brits.)

It's all good fun.

there was a get a mac ad here in canada on global like 4 minutes ago

with a replacment mac person then justin came in!

ya that ones aired three times already up here

 

[MacNut]

That ad has been around for years.

Yes I saw that ad last week here in the states.

I was never a fan of Prince. I wish the NFL would give us a real halftime show. I guarantee the die hard football fan could care less about Prince.

what would be your "real halftime show?" Black Eyed Peas?

How about no pop stars at all.

Hmmm... interesting....

now then, I know this question has been asked 43563459687 times, so I'm sorry in advance.

When was the 1984 commercial aired, like in what point in the show?

I think it was near the front.

For those waiting for the big Apple ad, I found it.

If you play the Budweiser commercial backwards, it clearly shows the Apple Geeks crowding around a stack of iPods fighting over who's gonna get the pink one.

Then, it pans to the iPhone, and one guy trying to give them away to customers of Verizon. No one's biting. I guess it's the fear of commitment to Cingular.

Oh, well.


Wait, there it is, the new Mac. It's in the background with subliminal messages flashing on it's screen. It's says.......

Too late, I'm a drone now.

Question about the Coca-Cola ad that just aired (the one in which the guy puts his money into the vending machine, and then you see a fantasy-like world in the machine prepare his bottle).

Is that a brand-new ad, aired for the first time during the Super Bowl?

The reason I ask is because I've already seen that ad last night on TV here in Japan.

So, if it made its US debut in the US, it was actually on the air here first.

That's been shown in Australia too for a few months now.

I think it was near the front.

Hmmm....

I have great doubtr about the commercial now.

The only sensible time they would do it now to open up 2007 would be at the very end to be a final shocker.

thoughts?

If pray tell this magic Beatles announcement were to not be announced tonight, would pairing it with the upcoming special event (aka the feb. 20th rumor) be likely?

I guess the iTunes update coming soon would go with iLife, so...


we'll see.

Kewl, thanks for the answer.

But seriously, for years? Or do you just mean it's been around for a long time?

Like I said, I saw it last night, and I thought the animation was pretty interesting.

Not that it has anything to do with the Game, but it kind of ties in with recent rumors... I just went to iLounge and, across the top of the home page is a banner ad for Circuit City showing an iPod (and two other music players) and the ipod screen image is the Beatles 'Love' album.

 

[Jwalker9]

Vista

As surprised as I am that there has been no Apple commercial, I think I am more surprised that we havent seen any Vista commercials. What kind of crazy budget do they have for advertising that thing? Hah, Kevin Federline..funny.

where

where is the ********* apple ad!

 

[age234]

what is this ATN business about??

I'm wondering the same thing...

 

[flyinmac]

I don't know what game you're watching. But, I've seen a ton of them. Perhaps you're watching the wrong game (got 3 or 4 on here)

Just keep watching, I'm sure you're dreams will all come true

 

[obeygiant]

Kevin Federline..funny.

That was perfect. Self-reflexive.

 

[direzz]

where is the ********* apple ad!

Its not ********* coming!

 

[Mgkwho]

Something with the Beatles/Love is obviously coming soon.

I really think it will be tonight, if not very very soon-

It may sound rediculous, but on iLounge.com that circut city ad kdavis references convinces me of something more...especially since 3rd part ads would need some sort of advance warning, right?

I dunno, maybe that didn't make any sense. But for some reason that simple banner ad stands out.

+ the fact that SJ had it on his iPhone.

What did I miss? I looke back through the forums and didn't find anything!

 

[FocusAndEarnIt]

With the way things are rolling, I'm starting to think no Apple ad.
