For many, the thing people look forward to during the Super Bowl are the commercials. That’s right, many people that are enjoying the NFC vs. AFC Championship game are much more interested in the Bud Light Knight falling off a cliff than they are seeing Tom Brady getting a chance to win his seventh championship ring. Because advertisers know this fact, they tend to offer up some interesting and unique commercials.

What gets most people talking are the comedic commercials. Who doesn’t want to share a funny moment between pals at the virtual water cooler the next morning? And a very funny commercial will get people talking about your brand for days or even weeks.

Over the course of the Big Game, there were quite a few commercials that were standouts and had us laughing during the evening. Check out a few of them below.

Super Bowl Sunday isn’t just about football. It’s also long been a huge opportunity for Hollywood to promote some of their hottest upcoming movies during what is frequently the most-watched live TV event in the US every year.

But with the pandemic perpetually postponing film openings, studios are expected to dial back on pushing theatrical releases in their Big Game Spots this year in favor of touting their respective streaming services and hybrid theatrical/digital movie releases.

The first big movie spot to drop during the pre-game for Super Bowl LV was for F9, Universal’s next installment in their long-running Fast & Furious saga. The movie was supposed to open last year but was postponed to 2021 due to the pandemic. The studio also dropped a spot for Nobody, their upcoming action-thriller that sees Bob Odenkirk go full John Wick on a bunch of bad guys.

Universal also revealed the first trailer for director M. Night Shyamalan’s next thriller, Old.

Disney also dropped the first look at Marvel’s Falcon and the Winter Soldier and a new spot for Raya and the Last Dragon.

We’ll be updating this list throughout the Super Bowl broadcast so be sure to check back here for the latest movie spots!
