The Best Super Bowl 2012 Commercials on YouTube

There are 2  types of people: the ones who think of the Super Bowl as the biggest football game of the year, and yet, there are the ones who think of is as a chance to see the best advertisements of the season.

That’s right, the best commercials are saved for the Super Bowl and every company that wants to see its commercial there needs to cash out approximately $2.8 million dollars! But they’re worth every penny; if a commercial is great, chances are it will become viral and spread throughout the Internet.

Last year’s Volkswagens The Force commercial had over 50 million views on YouTube! This year, The Dog Strikes Back got over 10 million views in just ten days. Amazing, right? Let’s see what other Super Bowl videos are getting some YouTube heat!

Coca-Cola – “Catch”

The cute polar bears with their favorite soda drink are back! This time, Coke had them catch a bottle of their beverage just like a football player scores for their team.

Chrysler – “Halftime”

This 2-minute advert features Clint Eastwood talking about halftime. It’s a metaphor, a motivational comment on the current state of the world itself and the USA within it.

Best Buy – The Innovators

The ad begins with Philippe Kahn, the person who created the camera phone, followed by Ray Kurzweil, the creator of text-to-speech system. The list goes on, featuring creators of Shazam, founder of Square Mobile Pay and even Kevin Systrom, the founder of Instagram. At the end, there’s Best Buy, creators of the best way to get a smartphone.

Acura NSX

Jerry Seinfeld wants to be the first buyer of Acura NSX car. The problem is – he got to be the second so now he’s trying everything to convince the gentleman in the first place to change. And soon as he does it, in comes Jay Leno, stealing the key to the car, which is probably a reference to that whole Late Night Show episode with Jay and Conan O’Brien.
