12 Big Commercials that Aired During the 2014 Super Bowl

View fullsize

I usually really enjoy the commercials during the Super Bowl, but this year it seemed like most of them were just as bad as the game. I thought I'd do a compilation post featuring several of the commercials that aired during the game. I have to point out, though, that the Axe commercial was so laughably bad. You might be surprised by some of the directors that made these commercial as well. What were your favorite and least favorite commercials during the big game?
