That refuses to watch any of the Super Bowl ad teasers/Straight up pre-released ads. I actually hate the fact that they try advertise the advertisements. Don't get me wrong, I love actually watching them, so long as it's actually during the Super Bowl.

It makes no sense! It's like releasing a movie on the internet and expecting people to go and see it in theaters.

i don't watch tv, and complain loudly when ads get in the way of my internetting. i really wish they'd stop trying to peddle their shit to me, i ain't buying. one of these days we'll be able to treat advertisers like the terrorists they are.

I'm not watching any of them either. I'll wait for the game.

I've watched a few of this year's ads, but I'm with you otherwise - I haven't watched the majority of them and won't be doing so until they actually air during the game.

Although, given the costs involved and how people are probably going to forget about the product/brand being promoted if an ad focuses more on a story to be told rather than on the product to be sold, I can understand why they'd try to get more exposure by spoiling the point of Super Bowl ads.

I'm odd in that I don't care about the ads to begin with. The good ones are few and far between anyways (in my opinion).

Exactly. If anything I think it ruins the hype.

Amen! Those corporations spend a ton of money for those Super Bowl spots. I want them to get what they paid for, me viewing them while watching the game.

I 100% agree. It's kinda like the fact that I'm trying to avoid seeing cars before they are officially released now.

Same here. Whats the point if they're not during the big game?
