The Super Bowl has come and gone, and with it a bevy of ads aimed at the captive audience. As the (self-appointed) authority on television advertising for the Collegian, here is my take on Sunday night's offerings.

Best Cameo:

These Cash4Gold adds usually piss me off, but they pulled a brilliant move here. If MC Hammer and Ed McMahon use this service, everyone should.

Most Honest:

Most Super Bowl ads have little to do with the actual service or product the company offers. HULU took a different approach, letting everybody know exactly the intent of the company. Aliens and evil plots to destroy the world? Who cares if I can watch as much TV as I want.

Best Cinematography:

This one seriously deserves an Oscar nod for Best Short Subject.

Most Unsettling:

Seriously, who exactly are they marketing to? That was just downright harsh. The last line is the kicker for me.

Best Trailer:

Forget Transformers 2, this trailer made sure to let everyone know that the next Star Trek movie is not going to be the standard nerd fodder the rest of the series was (which in my opinion is awesome).

Best Thing EVER:

Seriously, this commercial made my life. I can now die happy.
