Newcastle Brown Ale Pokes Fun of Super Bowl Advertising with Anna Kendrick

Staying out of the Super Bowl madness this year isn't always a bad thing.

Newcastle Brown Ale decided to have a little fun by releasing this commercial making fun of the brewer's absence. Anna Kendrick "stars" as a disgruntled castoff of Newcastle's failed Super Bowl ambitions, being let go when the company realizes they can't actually afford to pay her. The result is a very solid and entertaining commercial that's probably better than most spots I'll see on Sunday.
