Justin Timberlake's Superbowl Commercial

How many slurps of Pepsi does it take to get Justin Timberlake into your backyard? We lost count. But in this commercial for Pepsi and Amazon's MP3 Store, the journey includes one of the creepier Andy Samberg cameo's on record along with Tony Romo in an SVU sans Jessica (and yet this is still the only way we'll see him at the Superbowl ... Go Giants). JT did his own stunts? If that's true, we're starting to understand how he's able to hit those high notes. (Wait for the mailbox sequence.)

Justin's too mature for the straw-up-the-nose gag 'cause he's a douchebag. Y/y?

I think Justin Timberlake makes a lot more sense as a comic actor than as a singer. He's quite funny.

Looks like the video's been removed.

I dont understand this at all. Why would a company want to TAKE DOWN AN ADVERTISEMENT because somebody liked it enough that they wanted to share it? It's the most counter productive thing i've ever heard of.
