13 | Barry Keoghan features in period empowerment commercial. | $4.75 | While Barry Keoghan is a rising star, the specificity of a period empowerment commercial featuring him is quite niche, making this a less likely scenario for a mainstream event like the Super Bowl. | No |

30 | Bud Light tries to win back college jocks by becoming the proud new sponsor of hazing. | $10.00 | Hazing is widely condemned and associating with it would be a highly risky and controversial move for a major brand like Bud Light, likely to provoke backlash. | No |
31 | Something referred to as a person’s “Roman Empire”. | $4.50 | This phrase, which has surged in popularity on social media, could be a contemporary and relatable theme for an advertising campaign.

34 | Pedro Pascal steams in ad about the end of the world. | $3.30 | Pedro Pascal, known for his roles in action and drama genres, could bring a compelling presence to an ad with a dramatic theme like ‘the end of the world’. This could align with products or services that emphasize urgency or significant change. However, the specificity of this scenario makes it a less common choice for Super Bowl ads, which usually opt for broader appeal. | No |
35 | Big Temu brand spot. | $2.50 | New or emerging brands, like Temu, often use prominent platforms like the Super Bowl to launch significant marketing campaigns.

36 | Scorcese directs an ad that is 3x longer than necessary. | $8.90 | Martin Scorsese is a filmmaker renowned for his unique style, but a Super Bowl ad significantly longer than the standard format is highly unconventional.

38 | Posh and Becks “tell the truth” in a big brand commercial. | $3.00 | David and Victoria Beckham are global icons with significant media presence. An ad featuring them in a candid setup, perhaps revealing personal insights or breaking the fourth wall, could attract considerable attention.

39 | At least one celebrity alcohol brand ad (e.g. Brother’s Bond Whiskey, Casamigos Tequila, Aviation Gin). | $1.70 | Celebrity-owned alcohol brands have seen a surge in popularity.

40 | Will Smith and Chris Rock co-star in a slapstick comedy commercial. | $12.50 | While a commercial featuring Will Smith and Chris Rock, especially in a comedic context, would undoubtedly draw attention, their recent controversial altercation might make this pairing a risky choice for advertisers. The potential for humor could be significant, but brands might be cautious about associating with a sensitive topic. | No |
41 | A ‘quiet luxury’ brand does the first ever Super Bowl commerical with no sound. | $5.80 | A silent ad would be groundbreaking, but Super Bowl’s lively atmosphere makes this a risky approach. It would rely on strong visual storytelling to capture attention amidst the event’s usual noise and excitement. | No |
42 | Ryan Gosling cameos in an ad as ‘Ken’. | $3.25 | Gosling’s portrayal of ‘Ken’ could be a creative angle for ads seeking pop culture relevance. However, such a specific character tie-in would depend on partnership agreements and the ad’s timing relative to related media releases. | No |

This approach would resonate with current economic trends and viewer experiences. | Yes |
44 | An ad featuring ONLY nepo babies (either ironically or unintentionally). | $4.75 | Featuring exclusively ‘nepo babies’ (children of celebrities) could be seen as a tongue-in-cheek nod to industry nepotism.

47 | ChatGPT features in more ads than any individual celebrity or influencer. | $3.60 | As AI technology becomes more prominent, it’s plausible to see ChatGPT featured in multiple ads, either as a tool or a thematic element. However, surpassing individual celebrity presence would be a significant trend shift. | No |
48 | Tom Brady cashes in on his career and appears in multiple spots. | $1.95 | Tom Brady, a notable NFL figure, is a likely choice for multiple ads, capitalizing on his fame and appeal to football fans. This aligns with the Super Bowl’s tradition of featuring sports celebrities in ads. | Yes |
