The purpose of a lens hood is to keep stray light from entering the elements and causing lens flare. Stray light can also decrease contrast in an image.
The purpose of $1000+ "Super Hoods" is to bend extraneous light around your camera; preventing lens flare and contrast fogging. This bent light then collapses on the Nikon shooting hack standing next to you; totally ruining his shot. It's been known to even crack the lens hoods of Nikon cameras in bright sunlight.
