As much as I like Chevy, that ad is just simply putting a bad name on the company. Especially for people like me who think none of it is real anyhow.

That's actually pretty clever and amusing, a few subtle movie references tossed in to boot. Just the thing Super Bowl ads are all about.

Irony: The page took forever to load and then the video would not play. I refreshed the page and got the video to play but it kept freezing up. It got annoying so I just closed the page.

I`m so glad I`ve got a Jeep, and not one of those Chrysler specials, a real live AMC.

Funny ad.

What they don't show is Dave in his F-350 coming to the rescue after the Chevys are burried in Frogs.

Enjoy the Twinkies boys.

The thing that throws me off is a chevy being the only thing that survived.The creators of the commercial did there job,it got your attention

yup. drive-in theaters. i fondly remember the Fort Drive-in in Lynchburg, VA... as well as the Amherst Drive-in in Madison Heights.
"let's all go to the snack bar, let's all go to the snack bar..."

all-night horror movie marathons and spaghetti western nights..... fireworks on the 4th of July. tire spikes in the driveway to the ticket office; "DO NOT REVERSE" on the ticket window. my buddy Jeff backed over them one night. that was a cold walk home.
