Commercials :)

[GeorgeMichael]

This is the place to discuss recent or past commercials that you have seen :) You can talk about whether you liked them, how stupid they were, something you thought was clever or funny, etc...


Let's see if people have a lot to say about the commercials they see every day.

[Andy]

There's the Geico commercials, and how they've changed a lot over time. They used to be just those stick-men, then the Gecko complaining about name similarities, then the Gecko joined Geico, then they did the cavemen...

[GeorgeMichael]

Yeah, I like the gecko, but I hate that stupid Caveman. Especially since they made a show about him...


I like the freecreditreport.com one with the pirate singing in the restaurant :P

[Ichigo]

I love that commercial that's like:
This is the best F***** food you'll ever have.

Frozen, doesn't have to be a bad word.


Hahahaha.
Haha.

I love the mini-wheats commercials (the vanilla one and the strawberry one), they're just so damn catchy;)
If you haven't seen them you can watch them on youtube. Here's the link to the vanilla one (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F1YcgDIO3J0&feature=related) and this is the strawberry one. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EGqlXBx_bBc&feature=related)

I doubt anyone else has seen this since it's a) British, and b) really old and most of you weren't born ...

The Cheerios advert with ... that bloke ... James someoneorother. That had the most ANNOYING tune ever. :glare:

I hate any commercial with Jessica Simpson or Britney Spears in it for the following reasons:
1. I can't stand either of them.
2. I can't stand people who claim to be smart and act like complete morons.
3. I can't stand people who act like ignorant, disgusting, vile human beings while being a role model for millions of young girls everywhere.
4. I can't stand stupid people.
5. I can't stand people who sing crappy music and get popular for having songs with strong sexual content that is aimed at young teenagers. After all, if Britney can be a slut...why can't you?
6. Did I mention I hate both these people?


I do like the Geico commercials but I hated when they changed the gecko's accent. He was really cute and Australian before wasn't he?

Car commercials and movie commercials are the best. Cars cuz' of the delicious vehicles they show as well as the graphics and I like movie trailers (usually the high0action ones) cuz' of the way they edit it...

The McDonald's commercial with the soccer teams.
Gets on my nerves EVERY TIME.
Number one, it's totally unhealthy. DISGUSTINGLY unhealthy. Go watch Super Size Me if you don't agree.
Number two, it's got kids in it. They think that since this stuff tastes good, it's gonna be great. Then kids that are watching the commercial feel the same way, hence America being one of the fattest countries in the world.
Ayiyi.

Yeah, really. I would love to see a parody of that commercial in which that team loses 3 more championships, gets McDonald's every time....and is fatter every time. :devious:

Wow, evil much Andy? :P



And on the topic of commercials, one that started coming on TV recently (I had first seen it in theaters) is one REALLY annoying woman's deodorant commercial. She's walking down the street and she like raises up her arms to stop a taxi and goes "Nevermind, I'll walk." and then she raises her arm to high five a guy "I didn't even know that guy!" And it's just UGH! So irritating...

omg I spent all last year in science singing those songs. hahha. By the end of the year it was super popular at our school. And guess who got it that hot?!?!?! moi and ma amies! :)

[Andy]

Wow, evil much Andy? :P
Writers have to know how to be evil. ;) Sometimes characters are just asking for it. :devious:

[appleofmyeye]

Oh, I love the Hillshire Farm salad commercials. Here it is, by heart:

Go meat, meat
Go meat, meat

That salad rocks, the best
Make it easy at your desk.
It's second to none
Just add lettuce and your done.
It's crazy girl, I swear
There is so much stuff in there!

Sa-sa-sa-salad
Yeah, a meaty salad.
Why?
Because you hungry, you hungry, yo mamma says you hungry.

When you say Hillshire you say farm.
Hillshire!
Farm!
GO MEAT!

^End complete nerdgasm.

Genius. xD

I also hate that commercial with that one skin product, and they go rubbing against people they don't even know on the bus, in a club... it freaks me out.

[Andy]

I think that may be the Clearasil ad, actually. "Warning: May cause confidence." Sound familiar? And yeah, that commercial kind of freaks me out too.

Oh, gee. I love that one. :rolleyes:

[appleofmyeye]

I like the Clearasil when the guy stands up and says

"I know public speakers use techniques to not be nervous, and I just want you to know you can picture me naked." Then to the girl he says 'you too'. Or something like that :P.

[Andy]

Aren't parodies fun? :D

This one's one of those Mac-PC commercial parodies. It's a pretty funny one, too. South Park style.
