During the game, the Super Bowl ads were inserted into an on-line survey and sent to thousands of study participants. Participants answered questions regarding their perceptions of the ads using various parameters, including breakthrough, emotion, memorability and involvement. They also utilized an on-line dial testing system to indicate their levels of interest as they watched the ads.
The interest levels were analyzed in the form of curves to determine which commercials had the highest sustained levels of interest. The curves were used as part of a metric to calculate and rank the advertisements. The metric also includes a measurement for emotions and an index for “word of mouth” impact of the ads.

"Exciting trailor but not enough to make me definitely want to see it." Lisa from IL
"Can't wait for the movie! Love Russel Crowe and Robin Hood" Barbara from FL
"I think this is a great commercial. I have not heard anything about this movie yet and to introduce it during the Super Bowl was a great idea. To see "Gladiator" in the beggining is an attention grabber because of the success of Russell Crowe in that movie as well. I will definately be keeping my eyes open for more about this movie." Leanna from NY
"I think I have seen and loved Errol Flynn as the original Robin Hood to be objective about a new one with an actor I do not care for as an actor." Katharyn from MO
"great trailer - makes you WANT to see the movie" Thomas from NC
"I can't believe they made another Robin Hood movie" Emily from OH
"The commercial is exciting, but makes the movie seem too similar to Gladiator." Elysha from CA
