I do legitimately really like the new Nokia smartphone ad where Chris Parnell goes around telling everyone they've participated in a beta test with all their various crappy phones. It's clever and he's funny.

On the other side, there's an ad I can't find on Youtube for the local Worlds of Fun theme park, which is a family sitting around the table communicating in screams. Fun.

Hi5 Kansas City buddy. Worlds of Fun has never had good commercials. Also gently caress them for removing the Orient Express. I don't care how many people could have died on it, that poo poo was fun.

Don't know if "The Cabin in the Woods" is any good, but gently caress it for bringing back one of the most annoying practices in Hollywood, which is having a commercial then cutting to people in the theater talking about how scary it is. :fuckoff:

Also there was a really terrible Cars.com ad earlier where it had some lady's hair having a second version of her face singing and it was just gently caress up.

That's good to hear. Probably have to see it when it comes out on blu-ray. The earlier commercials did make it look very different from the typical horror movies, but the new batch are the generic kinds paint it generic or the above example.

Cabin in the Woods is a comedy and a total joke of a horror movie. It's about as scary as Buffy the Vampire Slayer which makes sense since it's made by the same guy.

"This fruit punch is Geico. This raw sewage is our competitor. Oh, you like the fruit punch? That means Geico is better!"

The fact that some ad firm was paid millions of dollars to come up with the concept makes me ill.

Those commercials are produced by the cigarette companies, so there's some incentive there to be annoying.

And, like someone mentioned earlier, Cars.com's singing head commercials. A singing tumor is trying to sell me something in an utterly infuriating way. Wonderful.

These new anti-smoking ads are put out by the CDC (Centers for Disease Control). They won't ban it simply because of all the tax revenue they get. Sometimes, I think they should ban tobacco in hopes that America the Stupid will finally figure out that PROHIBITION DOES NOT WORK. It didn't work for alcohol in the 1920s, and it isn't working for drugs now.

This commercial should end with the family staring at the waitress, then silently getting up and leaving. That's what I would do.
