Can't say what my favorite was but the Audi one was pretty clever with everyone breaking out of jail.
I can say that I'll never eat another Dorito again after seeing the commercial where that dude sucked the other dude's finger, etc.

Anyone like the two BMW ads? I thought they were well done and each with a clear message.

BMW Returned To the Super Bowl Broadcast Tonight With Two Clear Messages for America
07.02.2011 Press Release
Woodcliff Lake, NJ ? February 6, 2011? BMW returned to the Super Bowl broadcast tonight after a 10-year hiatus, unveiling a strategy that forcefully communicates two competitive advantages of BMW.
The first commercial is a poignant piece focusing on BMW?s economic commitment in America as told through the voices of the company?s associates at its manufacturing facility in South Carolina. The second commercial uses humor to showcase BMW Advanced Diesel vehicles as a cleaner, efficient alternative to other types of vehicles.
?We have two clear messages we would like millions of Americans watching the Super Bowl to know about BMW,? said Dan Creed, Vice President, Marketing, BMW of North America. ?Even in the depths of the recession, BMW continued to invest in America, and as the global benchmark for clean diesel technology, we?re challenging stereotypes to show our advanced diesels are part of the future.?
Both these messages will be carried through BMW?s marketing efforts throughout the year. The Super Bowl advertisements also mark the debut of actor Chris Pine from Star Trek in 2009 and Unstoppable in 2010 as the voice of BMW.
The commercial underscoring BMW?s commitment in America, dubbed Defying Logic, showcases the company as a significant contributor to the economy and a vital part of the American automobile manufacturing industry. It was filmed in BMW?s Spartanburg, South Carolina manufacturing facility where all BMW X3, X5 and X6 vehicles are produced and exported to 130 markets worldwide. The advertisement features the new BMW X3 vehicle, which was also designed in America and offers consumers 10 million unique configuration options.
Instead of actors, real-life BMW associates and citizens of the local community, including the Spartanburg High School football team, are featured in the commercial. In the ads, real plant associates note that during the height of the recession, BMW intensified its commitment to U.S. manufacturing with a $750 million plant expansion, as part of an overall $1 billion investment in its U.S. operations. BMW Group?s direct and indirect employment in America is more than 50,000 jobs.
Changes, the second commercial, takes a playful jab at America?s misperceptions of diesel and highlights BMW?s Advanced Diesel vehicles as a cleaner, high-performance, efficient alternative. The ad, set to David Bowie?s iconic melody ?Changes,? depicts a truck driver bellowing black smoke, an older-model diesel vehicle sputtering up a hill, and pedestrians surrounded by clouds of filthy exhaust. In the spot, the BMW 3 Series Advanced Diesel makes a grand entrance highlighting its smooth, clean, efficient performance and powers away leaving them all in its dust.
The Super Bowl is one of the world?s most televised sporting events, reaching more than 100 million viewers in one night. BMW last advertised in the national broadcast of the Super Bowl in 2000. Both commercials aired in the second quarter and can be viewed on BMWUSANews.com, Facebook.com/BMWUSA, and YouTube.com/BMWUSA. Video commentary from Trudy Hardy, Manager, Marketing Communications and Consumer Events, BMW of North America, will also be available on BMWUSANews.com.
BMW is also running an interactive contest on Facebook tied to the BMW X3 Commitment in America Super Bowl advertisement. The contest, dubbed ?The X3 Matchup,? gives viewers the opportunity to guess the configuration of the BMW X3 featured in the advertisement for a chance to win a Grand Prize two-year lease on the vehicle. In addition, the winner will receive a trip for two to BMW?s Spartanburg manufacturing facility to pick up their vehicle and attend a two-day performance driving school at the BMW Performance Center. BMW fans can enter on the BMW USA Facebook page (Facebook.com/BMWUSA) through Thursday, February 10.
The commercials were developed by kirshenbaum bond senecal + partners, the media buy was coordinated by UM and the online components were created by Dotglu.

The BMW Diesel commercial was good.
The Go-Daddy commercial with Joan Rivers was clever.
That no talent Kim Kardashian looked awesome in that Sketchers ad, however, pulling at my heartstrings (largely because I've lived here for the last 29 years), was the 2 minute Chrysler spot with Eminem touting "made in Detroit" and the Chrysler 200. I loved the tag at the end of the commercial: Imported . . . . . . . . from Detroit.

Really disliked the X3 commercial. BMW's are unique cars and they should always be built in Germany. No exceptions...if they start doing this for all their cars I will certainly take my business elsewhere when it comes to choosing the next car.
