How was your 3D Super Bowl ad experience

Add comment February 2nd, 2009

I brought 28 pairs of free cardboard 3D glasses to a Super Bowl party yesterday to watch the DreamWorks and SoBe commercials.

And we were way underwhelmed. Our host turned the lights down, but it wasn’t dark. We all watched the two hi-def TVs on the garage walls. But when it was all over, none of us felt like we’d experienced much 3D at all.

But then I came into the office this morning. put my 3D glasses on and checked out this video of the dancing lizards, and there was the 3D experience I’d hoped to see.

Bet if I’d have turned off all the lights in the office, it would have been even better. I’m going to try to catch “Chuck” tonight on NBC to check out the 3D effects there.

How was your 3D experience during the Super Bowl commercials?

And what were your favorite commercials??

I liked the Pedigree one showing unusual pets such as an ostrich and a rhino.  The upshot: “Maybe you should get a dog.” This writer said the Go Daddy ad featuring Roscoe native and car racer Danica Patrick in a shower scene was a loser. Agree? Disagree?
