Watch the Super Bowl Movie Ads!

This is the most original zombie depiction I have seen. Instead of shambling individuals, they are a horde that moves without concern for self-preservation and personal space. After Katrina, the 2004 tsunami, Fukushima, and Sandy, how appropriate it is to portray zombies as an unstoppable torrent?

Yeah, they move more like a entire ant colony covering some animal. I haven't seen a zombie movie which anything close to that before.

They look so silly though, and the Zombie Jenga Pile HA wow...This looks like it could be un-intentionally hilarious.

Fast and Furious 6 and Star Trek Into Darkness were the best ones.

I'm drunk right now, and I'm not raping anybody. I feel like crashing this plane though.

Feb 4 - 07:33 PM

LOL!

Hay! This here is 'Merica and if ye dont like it you can geet out!!

Feb 4 - 06:29 PM

Ha, when I first saw the Iron Man 3 ad I thought it was for Flight!

Feb 4 - 06:31 PM

Really? That's an odd coincidence, lol...

Feb 4 - 06:59 PM

Well the beginning with the plane crashing made me think of that lol.

Feb 4 - 08:08 PM

Denzel gets paid 100 times more than those teachers and educators too. Where's your crusade against him?

Feb 4 - 06:47 PM

This Mick Travis guy kind of makes me laugh. He says he's seen over 100K movies. That's about 20 years worth of viewing. Factor in work and sleep, and I find that claim quite suspicious, unless he's about 70 and that's all he ever did with his free time. However, given his profile pic, I'm doubting he's an old timer. Such a strange thing to lie about.

So how old are you? You do realize 100K movies is roughly 20 years of viewing time, right?

Feb 4 - 07:35 PM

It just sounds like a made up claim. How do you even know you've watched 100K? Do you have a list or count somewhere? It seems like quite an exaggeration that you pulled out of your ass to defend your stance on Memento. Even professional film critics have not watched that many.

Feb 4 - 07:42 PM

If you watched 6 films a day (12 hours approx), it would take 45 years to reach 100,000.

I've seen enough movies to have long ago given up any attempt of counting how many movies I've seen. I own a couple thousand though.

Feb 4 - 07:43 PM

Oh, and you don't want to get me started on MEMENTO, that shit really pissed me off. Don't even start!

Feb 4 - 07:50 PM

That's another ridiculous claim. 80% of films worldwide during that time frame, or just US? The AFI catalog only has around 60K films and that includes stuff that would be really hard to find, even in today's market. As Janson pointed out, watching movies would basically had to have been your full time job since you were a kid. I don't care if you hated Momento, but when I see these kinds of ridiculous claims, I just don't understand it. I'm not a fan of hyperbole, I guess.

Feb 4 - 08:55 PM

On a side note, how crappy is this message board? Can't edit my "Momento" typo and can't even reply to a specific comment once it's a few entries deep.

Well, yes. Truthful is good. I don't see why you would think otherwise.

Got to give you credit Mick, whenever I see a movie I usually forget about the movie's first hour by the next day. You seem to have a good memory of movies from over time.

Feb 4 - 06:59 PM

Thank you! :)

"a bunch of overpaid barbarians who make 100 times more money than teachers and educators." lol after reading these comments I was forced to register and add my two cents. I feel sorry for everyone who just quickly bashed this kid Mick Travis, he's got a great point and all of you who didnt take the time to think about what he actually said are the unfortunate americanized "jersey shore" babies. You guys were more worried about punking this kid as he's trying to make a decent logical point. What america produces these days is extremely horrific. maybe we should be as a nation worrying more about education than the garbage Hollywood copies and recycles & paying some asshole who has a high school mentality $400 mil to throw a ball. the majority of great "hollywood movies" anyways are all dumbed down recreations of cinema from around the world such as The Departed... Stop worrying about nonsense and think abouut what does matter you fat uneducated in the dark americanized disapointments.

Feb 5 - 04:54 AM

I'm not fat. Don't make me drop a book on your foot.

Feb 5 - 01:14 PM

That wasn't the point I and others were disagreeing with it was the assumption that because we enjoy football that we're all drunken assholes. You can have a valid point, but if you present it in the way Mick did you can't really blame people for missing it.

Thanks for accusing me of an assumption while in the same breath confirming that that assumption was accurate.

Feb 5 - 03:51 PM

A lot of assholes doing a lot of things. But neither drink nor football makes one an asshole.

Feb 5 - 04:04 PM

In addition, your description of 'Hollywood' is about as accurate Hollywood depictions of foreigners.

quit watching sports, go watch the stock market instead

Feb 5 - 04:59 AM

It's all gambling. Try watching Kubrick instead, bitch.

Feb 5 - 01:12 PM

I agree, I never understood what was so great about watching sports, Wouldn't it be better to actually play it then to watch someone and then have him get paid 400 mil for it?

Feb 5 - 01:22 PM

What's this crap? Who, exactly, makes 400 million playing to throw a ball? The top quarterback (Peyton Manning) makes 17 million a year. And Tom Cruise makes an average of 65 million a year. Donald Trump (that useless duck) earns 60 million a year. And guess what, Kim Kardashian is worth 40 million. You want to tax the shit out of these folks, I'm all for it. But, you want to hate on sports players? You are aware that over half of the income in sports revenue goes to the team owners, right? Anyone want to question the earnings of Dan Snyder, Robert Kraft, Rooney Mara's families or Jerry Jones? But, sure, let's hate on those actually doing the work on the field. Morons.

Feb 5 - 02:17 PM

Work? Uh, they are playing a GAME. That is not WORK. It also pisses me off when people refer to football players as "heroes." War veterans are heroes, not football players.

Feb 5 - 03:03 PM

Could you do it Mick? I'd love to see that. I'm betting half the people criticizing the NFL players would be crippled attempting the workouts most of these guys put themselves through much less actually trying to play the games. I agree with you that they're probably overpaid, but it's supply and demand and the players unions at work. Don't disagree with you at all about the heroes thing. Though I don't believe the military has a monopoly on heroes. I think Kurt Warner, Charles Tillman and Jason Witten to name a few meet the definition of heroes, not for what they do on the football field, but what they've taken their celebrity and money and done with it.

Feb 5 - 03:23 PM

We're on a site that considers Batman and Iron Man as "heroes", so let's inject some sanity into the equation for a moment. I'm more of a casual sports fan. I like an exciting game of football or basketball occasionally, and I'm not about to feel guilty for that. So we can argue over the financial priority that people (Americans?) put into spending on sports, but as long as that money is being spent, I fully support players getting their fair share, because they're the ones making it exciting to watch. Again, if you want to tax these billionaire franchise owners to pay for better public education, I'll support that wholly. But whether we're talking about Jackie Robinson, Jessie Owens, Ted Williams, Joe Namath, Wilma Rupolph, Muhammad Ali, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar...these are every bit as much "heroes" as, say, JJ Abrams or Joss Whedon. And, technically, Hitler was a war veteran (of WWI), so obviously these things are conditional. It's about strength of character and perseverance.

Feb 5 - 04:02 PM

That was hyperbole

Feb 5 - 04:55 PM

Bradly Martin

Can we all still watch Sports movies? heh

Feb 7 - 11:29 AM

Mark Marquis

I dunno. I've easily watched over 100K sporting events. At least 80% of all games played between 1969 and 2010.

When an athlete is referred to as a hero they are typically saying it as in his play was heroic to his team. Although I do agree that soldiers are real heroes, athletes a lot of the times are too; although no to the extent of soldiers. A good portion of athletes take their very fortunate circumstance and use it to help others, very similar to some one like Batman, who was referenced above. In that respect they are heroes because they are using their wealth and fame to help others who are less fortunate. I don't know about you, but that's pretty heroic to me.

Feb 5 - 05:59 PM

Bradly Martin

What about when a Soldier is a Rapist or child molester like in Black Hawk Down. Ewan McGreggor's character had to be completely re-named and changed because people found that the actual man was far to offensive to the idea of the Heroic Soldier....though everything McGreggor did in the film was what the real man did apparently. What about when this happens?

Feb 7 - 11:30 AM

Or the veteran who shot dead his two buddies at a gun range recently, or John Muhammad, the Beltway sniper, another Iraq vet, etc.

All of these ads just reminded me that it is a terrible year for film. But yet, simple minded idiots will still pay to go see Fast and Furious 6. Unbelievable.

Feb 6 - 10:22 AM

Fuck you, asshole. Long Live The Fast and Furious films! it's those godawful, incoherent Transformers films you should going after. At least the Fast and Furious know their dumb fun

There's nothing fun about being dumb, ask your parents when they raised you
