Creative Excellence Fridays - The greatest superbowl spots ever made

Well the big event is this Sunday. And apparently they'll be playing a football game too.
The real event being, well Fergie in the halftime show, followed by the commercials of course.
I'd like to thank Ad Age for doing most of the work this week. They recently compiled a list of the greatest Superbowl spots of all time. They were compiled by category. The full list and additional Superbowl commercials are here if your all time favourite was missed.

Monkey spots; Coke spots; Pepsi spots; Car spots; Critter commercials; Worst Super Bowl ads; Anheuser-Busch spots.

Now, on with the spots. Watch, and let us know your favourite, and we'll pass the results on next week when we feature this year's crop.

Enjoy!

Note: In some cases we've gone with a descriptive title rather than the spot's actual title to help clarify things in our poll.
