The broadcast version of the Super Bowl ad for 84 Lumber was much shorter, because six minutes would have cost $60 million.

Instead, viewers were directed to the ad's website. Who knows how many people actually did that instead of watching Lady Gaga's halftime show. Anyway, here's the extended version, which is beautifully cinematic, and quite pointed.
