Eastwood & Broderick, Superbowl ad favorites

Life moves pretty fast. Hear the roar of our engines. Let’s find out who directed* this Chrysler ad so we’ll remember his roots when he’s up for an Oscar in a few years. Ferris Bueller redux, after the cut.

*Answer: David Gordon Green (thanks, scott ferguson) So this ad is way beyond roots and up in the high branches as a fresh bud.

  1. Supposedly David Gordon Green directed it. He also shot a second one with Al Pacino.

  2. Yes, I loved the Eastwood commercial even though it wasn’t the typical sort people tune in for.

  3. I love how Halftime in America has crawled up the butts of conservatives and they’ve been squirming all day about how it’s pro-auto industry bailout.

    Other favorites? Which ads were the most controversial? (I haven’t seen but a few of yesterday’s ads. Tell me which ones I need to seek out.)

  4. The Jerry Seinfeld-Acura NSX ad was probably my favorite. Plus the old NSX’s were boss cars.

  7. If you haven’t seen George Washington and All the Real Girls, you really should. Green’s gone on to more commercial stuff and that’s a shame, hopefully he’ll go back to his roots and really uncork some more amazing films.

  9. UGH, this is the David Gordon Green I miss. I hope he comes back b/c he shows here that he’s still capable of capturing Americana in a Malick-esque way but with his own flair.

  10. I don’t like the ferris bueller one. all it is doing is repeating famous scenes from the first movie. there should be a little more wit and originality to it.
