from that Halifax ad news story:
..and a waxwork model of Brown was exhibited in Madame Tussauds.
are they fucking kidding us?

Thierry Henry, Tiger Woods and the tennis bloke (whose name esacpes me right now) who are all good pals who like nothing more than a good shave and never even think about yesterday. Grrrrr.

The Pot Noodle "Put the pan down" advert can fuck off as well.
― Dom Passantino, Friday, 18 April 2008 10:31 (eighteen years ago)
The advert with the chef guy making the beat with the repetition of 'Sha' 'cla' or whatever he says. It's annoying but kinda funny too.

Always irritated by that accident insurance ad where the woman informs us that "... the floor was wet with no warning signs". Huh? Whussat?

So many car adverts that look like a computer graphics grad project right now.
That one where they use some desperately uninteresting box of a car as a skateboard. So shit. And that one where the car is doing acrobatics off skyscrapers etc - total vertigo nightmare, that one. Ugh.

The Samsung ad with the Chelsea players and ...Donna Air. Most conceptually vapid ad ever and looks like it took 3 minutes to make.
― Zoe Espera, Wednesday, 7 May 2008 07:35 (eighteen years ago)
And it's not an ad, but the Gordon Ramsay Braveheart trailer. The sound quality is really bad and I can't tell what he says before and after the chefs run down the hill.

the pepsi max(?) ad, which seems to be random people in street picking a footballer and a plot point. the thing ends up as a mess.
the singing worm on that compost ad.
― koogs, Wednesday, 7 May 2008 08:33 (eighteen years ago)
Ha, was about to say about the Pepsi Max ad - clearly none of the footy players featured have had to be in the same room at any moment during filming. Even at the 'party' at the end.

The moment of genius in that pepsi ad is that Fat Frank is only seen very briefly, but is EATING.

I can't cope with the awful adverts for heat - with the woman singing ni the car. They actually make me feel ill, like I'm in the first stages of a heavy cold, in a William-Gibson-Pattern-Recognition way.

Pompous car advert - take your pick really - with female bodybuilder ("Is this beauty... or obsession"), CCTV ("Is this for our safety... or theirs"? (or something like that)) etc etc etc, shut up, it's a fucking car
― Tom D., Friday, 9 May 2008 10:46 (eighteen years ago)
There's that advert for Berocca which is plainly ripped off the video for OK Go's single - you know, the one with them on treadmills.

We've been whinging about this ad on the mongrel thread. Does it make you want to visit Melbourne?

In fairness, it does give you some advance symbolic warning of Melbourne's traffic problems.

Latest UK McDonalds advert (where adults and children are making a garden representing McD's foodstuffs) is a horrible piece of faux-sincere bullshit including:
1. Use of every tired cliché from every advert made in the last five years ie. indie-twee whistling song, outdoors setting, people working "togevver" to make pointless object which is revealed at the end.
2. Implication that teamwork and community are a part of McDonalds "core brand values".
3. Dreadful chummy reference to potatoes as "Spuds".
4. Hateful reprise of indie-twee whistling shitbaggery for "I'm Lovin' It" motif at end.

New McCoy's ad yet another celebration of pig-ignorant laddishness, apparently knowing about anything that isn't football is grounds for immediate banishment, possibly death.

What's up with that ad for a generic brand of Asian cars, featuring what appears to be a miniature version of The Feeling playing a shit song from inside the glove box?
