Apple iPhone Yup. If you don't have an iPhone, well...you don't have an iPhone.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=onLYKU-CNhM Tupping Liberty posted:And you can buy the song on itunes! wooooo! It's the program so far up it's own rear end, we've called it "Genius". But why stop there? Popeye's Chicken Time fo' some of that sweeeeeeeet ice tea. Fo' sho'. You'll clean surrender. I've said it before, the Popeye's commercials are literally a re-write or two away from becoming The General's Fried Chicken commercial from Undercover Brother.

Smegma Enigma posted:I can't be the only one who had never heard of Magnum ice cream and thought the first 20 seconds of this commercial were about a chick day-dreaming about a truck driver's giant dick. You're not far off. The imagery is intentionally evocative of everything you think of when you think of the word "Magnum" (condom not gun).

Attention advertising executives: Having to listen to anybody chew on or suck down food by way of a boom mic is gross and doesn't encourage me to want to buy your product. I know you're trying to convince me that the actors/actresses are supposed to be enjoying the food, but really it's just reminiscent of Andrew Zimmern trying to talk around giant mouthfuls of food in Bizarre Foods. Unlike that show, your commercial probably isn't hocking half-rotted chicken embryos that have been buried for nearly a month before they're consumed. That doesn't make it any less gross. That being said, gently caress everyone responsible for this Kit Kat ad campaign. It strikes this primal font of irritation and anger in me; nails on a chalkboard or balloon rubbing doesn't bother me, but the sound of chewing and crunching drives me up a wall.

Yeah, I suppose I should've clarifiedElectricSheep posted:You're not far off. The imagery is intentionally evocative of everything you think of when you think of the word "Magnum" (condom not gun). that I didn't mean condoms specifically a little better, but the fact of the matter is that the commercial's about as subtle with its sexual imagery as an Axe ad.

moleman posted:This Chevy commercial is quite possible the worst I've ever seen. I honestly thought it was a joke the first time I watched it. Terrible acting, terrible camera work, terrible audio issues... Unsurprisingly, it's got a lot of REAL MUHRICANS staunchly defending it in the Youtube comments.

Pink's "Raise Your Glass" is one of the most obnoxious songs I've heard in months, and now it's running in the background of no less than 3 commercials right now. It's become such a bad earworm that I've woken up two mornings in a row with that drat song as the first thought that enters my mind and the last thing I remember before I go to sleep.

The eBay ad had both my wife and I yelling at the TV after about 15 seconds of that incessant bullshit the girl was spewing. Jesus, doesn't anyone actually watch these things or put them through some sort of QA before they foist them upon us?

That commercial for St. Ives lotion just annoys the poo poo out of me now, and it's probably a combination of it being obnoxiously twee and playing all the drat time.

^^Fantasy. Trucks can't snowboard. Do not attempt.^^ElwoodCuse posted:There's a new commercial for those sleazy bullshit commerative coins and they've hit a new low--the 9/11 and combination "we killed osama bin laden" coin that also comes with a pile of poo poo that makes the manual to a Call of Duty game look like a David McCollough book. It really is abominable how they market these things. I have a commercial for the "Justice Coin" here but I don't think it's the exact same commercial we're thinking of here. Same concept, though.

Mister Kingdom posted:I really want to smack the Gazelle lady with an old iPhone. There's something really obnoxious about her delivery but I just can't put my finger on it. On the other hand she kind of reminds me of Sabrina from Raising Hope, so I'm kind of torn about how I feel.

Since I've seen a couple of radio ads dropped in here: if I can help it I will never, ever fill a prescription for Tamiflu ever. It starts with a man coughing, then hoarsely whispering for the entire commercial in a register that annoys me in a way I just can't describe. All I know is that as soon as my brain realizes the commercial's playing, my arm shoots forward almost involuntarily and hits a different radio preset.

Rirse posted:I suggest when we make the next thread that the title be about Go Daddy, because I don't think they have ever had a single good ad. Everyone of their commercials has been awful, non stop. Well, obviously you didn't get to see the UNRATED CONTENT on their website that they can't show you on TV! ...ridiculous as that line is, it delivered hits to the site and probably continues to do so.

I'm getting pretty tired of Depot Time. All I really know about Depot Time is that the clock hits Depot Time on pretty much every commercial break so that Tony Stewart and some helium-voiced blonde can tell me that it's Depot Time. depot time

TontoCorazon posted:Oh holy gently caress kitkat commercials suck so loving much. Chewing/drinking/slurping sounds are incredibly unappetizing to me, e.g.: - KitKat commercials; - York Peppermint Patty commercials that are aping Requiem for a Dream; - Taco Bell commercials with the guy sucking his Dorito Loco Taco-stained fingers; - Any radio commercial for a soda, ever; and some others I'm sure I've missed. I don't know who likes these things or what focus groups ad companies find that are cool with hearing or watching people eat and drink. Yet somehow I've always liked this commercial.

Having a Top Chef Masters also-ran try to convince me that Taco Bell is selling food that's either a)authentic or b)good somehow winds up being more annoying than KFC's or Quizno's attempts to make me believe that they employ "chefs" too. I don't know. Maybe it's because she went to the Sofia Vergara School of Elocution.

Rhyno posted:The new Old Navy commercials are pretty amazing. They got Chevy Chase, Beverly D'angelo and Juliette Lewis to stand around for 45 seconds and hope someone out there remembers the movie they were in together. I think it's ironic that Chevy Chase was recently bashing sitcoms (and by extension, Community) as being one of the lowest forms of entertainment. Now he's in an Old Navy commercial. I guess being an rear end in a top hat your entire life won't pay the bills.

Looks like they replaced the music in those K-mart commercials (thelightsthelightsthelights) with modern covers of Christmas songs. I only noticed it today, but I wondered if it was a total replacement of the commercials or not.

Shaman Ooglaboogla posted:I maintain the worst commercials ever are the one's that heavily feature the sounds of ingestion or digestion. The worst ad ever was for Sunkist on the radio that features really enhanced sounds of someone slurping up Sunkist out of the can and gulping that poo poo noisily down their gullet. Finished off by a horrid "ahhh" noise that no one wants to hear. I almost decided to crash my car off the cliff in anger from this soda ad. Kit-Kat commercials are the absolute worst for this.

muscles like this? posted:Except she totally does show up in their commercials? They have two sets, one with fake Wendy and one with real Wendy. Real Wendy looks like she has a severe case of lockjaw whenever she talks. Words come out, her cheeks puff with air, but...nothing much seems to happen with her mouth. It's creepy.
