SpazmasterX posted:It's hilarious that they think we honestly care even a tenth as much about starving african children than we do about abused animals. They've been trying to get us to give them money for years, and then the ASPCA rolls up and depresses the poo poo out of everyone. The ASPCA's commercials come closer to pulling heart strings because it's harder to read animal expressions. To a lot of people all a dog needs to do to look happy is have its mouth open. All the animal pictures they use are just what dogs and cats look like when they're bored and not doing anything. It's just more obvious with UNICEF's commercials that they just went up to some random kids and filmed them, even though they weren't too sad looking.

On the other spectrum I really love the new mini cooper commercials. Short, sweet, and they sell the product nicely. One of the commercials has the colour scheme changing like it was from a video game, its short and I can wrap my head around what they are trying to say. Makes me want to buy a mini cooper.

What exactly are we supposed to take from the commercial where some blonde chick buys one for her dad, and then is so proud that she bought one for herself and "it's better to receive than give!"? Also holy lol Jennifer Lopez's "elegance is hard" spot

That song is only "not terrible" in comparison to Pamplemoose or whatever the gently caress last year's Youtube shitsation was called, and once you notice how her lower jaw is struggling to escape your face you can't unsee it.

This ad for Sylvania headlight bulbs drives me up a wall. It's not overtly offensive, there are no annoying singers or cutesy little animated animals and it doesn't insult your intelligence by screaming at you. So what's the problem? The problem is, the chick at the end who says "Thanks, Dad" looks to be the same age as the dad. At least find an older actor or a younger actress so that there's an obvious age difference.

The Pam Spray commercial with the talking muffins makes me so angry. There's talking food, and then there's this. At least with ones like Burger King's talking burgers, the parents are the larger size and the kid is the junior burger whatever, which makes a shred of sense. These muffins are both regular looking muffins. The daughter says she told the dad one to use Pam, which means she talking to him when he was still... what? Muffin mix? Flour? Was she a muffin while he was still muffin sperm, or were they both bits of flour and she went into the second batch? How would muffin sperm have any choice in what kind of spray was used? Why did this woman use Pam spray with one set of muffins, but some other form when making the dad muffin's batch? Nothing about it even slightly makes sense.

There's a recent Progressive insurance commercial where 'Flo' is having dreams, and she looks like a corpse because of the amount of makeup on her. It's honestly pretty unnerving.

This Chevy Cruze ad isn't really grating or anything, it just catches me as "off" because it seems to be advertising that one simply settles for the Cruze, as if it's only the best of the bad options. Maybe it's part of a series and I'm missing something though.

I don't think there's supposed to be any subtext like that, but I definitely see it now. I think it's just supposed to be that drove around to all of those apartments without having to stop at a gas station or something. You idea makes it funnier, though.

I just saw an Enzyte ad for the first time in like 4 years. Seems like they're still using the same footage from the old commercials, just with a different voice over and a different song instead of Ginger Snaps now. I thought they had been shut down entirely for fraud though, is that just something I made up in my head?

Dear Nikon: while I do admit to getting a slightly ironic chuckle nowadays out of your commercial featuring Ashton Kutcher taking pictures of various attractive women on the beach (and I'm sure Demi Moore has that bit in the other commercial where he's getting fired out of a cannon on permanent loop), at this point I'm really thoroughly sick of seeing him everywhere and so I am asking that you please tell the basic cable networks to stop airing these ads. TIA, Yr. Pal, GP

Mozi posted:I'm not a fan of the car ad where everyone misremembers the lyrics to "Rocketman." In announcing this fact to my family, I probably could have done better than saying "this is a stupid ad, everyone knows the lyrics are obviously 'burning up his fumes up there alone.'" Motherfucking this. There are songs that are famously misheard or singers that are infamous for sounding like they've got a mouth full of marbles. Literally any song by Pearl Jam would have made more sense than the fairly straightforward Rocketman talking about being alone in space. How can you misunderstand that? They're really forcing the joke. I mean, "cheap cologne". Really?? Hell, even in Elton John's own repertoire he's got songs that are hard to understand. Hold me closer Tony Danza? Half of Benny and the Jets is totally incomprehensible. Musty Motorhome? For gently caress's sake... Xander B Coolridge fucked around with this message at 04:11 on Dec 20, 2011 |

The scenes that actually show her were filmed in Los Angeles. Yes, she couldn't even be bothered to fly to NYC to film a commercial that is about how loving proud she is to be from The Bronx. Also, I heard that the car broke down during filming. I dunno if that is true, but I hope it is.
