Chevy Goes Post-Apocalyptic With 2012 Silverado Super Bowl Ad. Needs Zombie Follow-Up ASAP.

I'm going to spoil the 2012 Chevy Silverado Super Bowl ad for you: Zombies do not swarm at the end only to be turned to goo by a fleet of trucks picking them off like it was Grand Theft Auto meets Shaun of the Dead.

This commercial needs a sequel now. With zombies. Lots of zombies. You know the Raptor could handle a zombie attack.

I like the Twinky part, although I guess we won't have those anymore now that Hostess is bankrupt. My friends and I used to joke that Twinkies could survive a nuclear apocalypse.

Ouch on the Ford slam. I like the frogs.

That's pretty funny commercial.
How's this for Ford's rebuttal?
All you see is dust and hear a roaring motor. The camera closes in on what turns out to be the back of a pickup and you see "DAVE" on the plate.
The camera rises up and it's really a group of Raptor's in the desert.
They blow by a white 70's Ford pickup. Charles Bronson is driving with his elbow hanging out.
I know they would have to CGI him in for this.
He snorts something like 'Kids', then flashes back to some scenes from Mr Majestyk.
Smiles and pats the door of the truck.
