Kawalimus posted:This one I keep seeing now is a car commercial some stupid family singing "Buddy Holly" by the band Weezer. I've seen three iterations of this sort of commercial and every one of them is completely cringeworthy. The other two were families singing "Sweet child of mine" and "Crazy Train". What annoys me is that no person under 20 is probably going to know who Weezer is nowadays. And then the Grandpa chimes in and no person over 60 is probably going to know who Weezer is. That commercial made me realize that Weezer is loving Dad Music now and it made me feel old even though the Blue Album came out when I was like nine. Sneeing Emu posted:The newest TV spots for Ex Machina explicitly show scenes from the end of the movie and it's goddamn infuriating. They also promote the movie as "SEXY ROBOTS" when it's so much more than that stupid tag line. Ex Machina is a good movie with terrible marketing. I was going to skip it until a friend told me that it was one of the better sci-fi movies he's seen in a while. The marketing made it seem like something completely different than what it is.

I'm guessing whoever came up with the Sweet Child o Mine one has never seen Step Brothers.

This is a new one that's been airing for about a month, now. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tmuwxUnKOlI "Buy a Subaru. The perfect car for taking your dying dog on a bucket list vacation."

The commercials for Trainwreck claiming that it's the best movie ever made has made me hate it without even seeing it.

I just saw a Nissan commercial where it was apparently some great feat that the car was faster than a schoolbus. They didn't really think that through, did they?

I have to dive for the remote to mute the tv or change the channel whenever that Buddy Holly commercial comes on so it doesn't ruin the actual song for me.

Until I noticed it was pantyhose for your arms I was puzzled as to how the old white lady dancing a little had anything to do with a product to disguise yourself as a black person.

That tape measure one is pretty accurate, if you're using one of them little bitty ones that only has a quarter inch wide tape that can't support its own weight.

They've overselling it, but this one's not unreasonable. Mattresses are unwieldly, floppy sons of bitches.

What's the product though? Something that has to support a mattress seems like it would be unwieldy itself.

Maybe it's those straps you can hook to the bottom of furniture to hold it steady/lift easier. If so, that commercial would involve the two guys going overboard along with the mattress.

I kind of like the new Match.com commercial where they make fun of other dating sites, like how eHarmony focuses on getting married.

Hey, DirecTV, your new series of "I'm (celebrity) and I'm (alternate universe celebrity)" suck. You shot your wad with Rob Lowe. Stop it now.

I fell asleep with the TV on the other night and woke up in at like 3am to this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_sSwgTG5XjU I thought at first that I'd fallen asleep with Adult Swim on again, but much to my chagrin it was Comedy Central and was a real commercial.

So apple has a new commercial out. What are they going to advertise their quality of their camera? Maybe something new or something? Nope, the only thing they can muster is their apps. Pretty much the same apps you can find on android and they make a commercial about it.

Has that talking pizza add for breath freshener or whatever the gently caress it is popped up itt yet? Because that commercial is a perfect shitstorm of creepy, annoying and racist stereotypes all at once.

They're just doing the same thing Coke or McDonalds or whoever is doing. Product doesn't change much/if at all and everyone knows who they are but there's noticeable dips in sales if they stop advertising.
