So how many  LEDs did they use to pull that show off? Anyone know that the technology behind the displays?

Curious mind would like to know

Looked like some projectors were used ... Not sure much if any of the singing was live ... But was believable

Compared to last year not much of a light show ... Liked "world peace" at the end

They were using back projected screens under the floor for most of it.  Interesting half-time show

The show was executed a lot better than last year ... smoother and audio was clear and consistent.

I was just watching last years halftime show ... and it was way more RGB lights and experimental ... but
the singing was awful, audio was in and out constantly ... and well, it was at least live, but not high quality.
I just loved last years lights and the people wearing lights, etc.

This year, it was mostly lip sync (good lip sync) except for the last song ... and well produced for typical high drama ... so I found it enjoyable.  The lights were less of a focus, but far better execution compared to last year ... which would have been a producers worst nightmare.

I thought it was funny that out came Madonna in her Roman inspired theme ... and my 11 year old was like "who is she?" ... and I'm like 'thats Madonna'.  And then when the other artists came out, they knew and sometimes I didn't. 

I also though disappearing into the smoke, then world peace ... was nice ... and Madonna seemed a little less self absorbed than normal, which was nice.

My wife who for years has HATED Madonna, actually said she liked the show.  But we both felt really old and smiled when at one point we could hear the music playing the back during the game, not on the regular broadcast, but could be heard at times was AC/DC.
