Film Theory: Why Super Bowl Commercials LOSE the Big Game!

Every year, millions of Americans gather in front of their televisions to watch the biggest sporting event of the year: the SUPER BOWL. But it turns out that a huge portion of these people are only watching for the commercials! WHY?! Do they actually get people to buy anything?? In this episode, I prove that these ads DON'T WORK, and reveal how to make the BEST SUPER BOWL COMMERCIALS!

THANKS to Thomas and Edward for their amazing editing work on this video!

I agree but first, a word from our sponsors, RAID SHADOW LEGENDS is a free rpg turn basedgame

[owensquelch]

what I don't get is company's always want adverts on the super bowl that only reachs 100M people, while the world cup reachs over 3B yet they almost never have any good adverts on them.

America should make a National Competition for Dodgeball. It would be so fun if America recognized that as a competing sport and made a tournament out of it. I would 100% pay to see that.

Yeah! Throw some YouTubers in the mix!

The major problem with Mats calculation to spend your money on YouTube instead of TV, is the target group. If you are targeting young people, YouTube ads will do the job fine, but that's it. He already mentioned the most predominant ads on the Superbowl: Beer, cars and insurances. None of those are really marketed to the usual YouTube viewer group. There is a reason both kind of ads exist.

The more ads I see for a product the less likely I am to buy that product.

I have a theory. All this illuminati talk reminds me of a while ago when MatPat said he would probably do a gravity falls theory. Illuminati? One of the characters from that show is know as "dapper *dorito*" or "dapper *illuminati" both things mention in this video. But hey, that's just a theory, a dumb YouTube comment section theory.

Matthew failing at talking about yogurt is actually adorable. You know, like when you see a kitten doing something cute? That kind of adorable.
