Not to worry: I haven't taken Danny O'Neil captive. We just wanted to give you a chance to watch some of the Super Bowl commercials, just in case you need to get up for a snack during the breaks in the game.

Many of the Super Bowl commercials have been released early. What do you think about that phenomenon? Would you rather wait until the game to see the ads? In case you do want to see the ads, here are a few (with more after the jump). You can also watch commercials from previous years, and we'll have the 2012 ads during the game. Come back after the game to vote for your favorite.
