Commercials you hate

[Hank_Scorpio]

The Under Armor commercials. They're extremely annoying.

Click, clack.

What's up with that? ???

The first one last year explained that some. It's the last sound you hear before you enter the field. Your cleats hitting the cement, click, clack. Pretty stupid, if you ask me.

Nice sig, Hank!

The Burger King ones....all of them. From the father and son chicken arguing over fries being in the family room to the ones for the value menu (the men being lifted up as the women are dancing), all the commercials are boring and really lack creativity.

I find that to be hilarious. I don't know why.

The KY lubricant ads.

Shocking.

I found it hilarious at the beginning, but I've seen it way too many times the last couple weeks. It's wearing on me.

[Claws for Concern]

The same commercials that run during every break in sports action (re: hockey).

Bad movies you know are going to be bad that run commercial trailers ad nauseum three weeks before the theater debut.

Translation: Trailers run more weeks than the movie once it is in the theater.

I keep seeing commercials for how popular Tim Horton's is in Canada, to the point where people go there for their wedding parties.

Um, I don't live in Canada.

Not sure which pregnancy test it's for...but the hook is "the most advanced piece of technology you'll ever urinate on"
Fantastic.
In regards to the esurance ads, Slate actually did an article on the spots.

I hate the Dr. Scholl's commercials.

In fact, I'd risk becoming a felon so I could smash them all in their collective melon. Then I'd stand there and laugh while they were swellin.

Indeed. They're SO not gellin'.

The news Axe Body Spray commercial.

It's set in a grocery store. The stock boy is stocking fruit/veggies and the girl starts dancing seductively singing "bow chica bow bow" (sp?) a la 70s' porno music.

I can't ****ing stand it!!!!

 

[boots]

The right guard commercial where the jackass if fighting a deer then suggest to his girl friend that they pitch a tent. I don't get it.

 

[suburbanite]

The Midas one where the boy scares the girls with the salamander then somehow drops it in the street, screams "MIKE!" and runs out back in front of a car after it.

If it was my kid, I would have tanned his hide for almost getting killed. If I was the driver, I would have yelled at him, not smirked like the woman in the commercial did. The kid looks back at her like he didn't do anything wrong. Damn kids.

Yeah, the idiot kid just took 10 years off her ****ing life, and she smiles at him. Moron.

 

[suburbanite]

This thread has been done to death, but to repeat: Any ad that makes white guys look like bumbling idiots while the woman/minority is the super genius will never get my money.

Ziploc has carried that one a step farther--now white families are jackasses 'cause they buy bargain bags and the food goes bad, while minority families buy Ziploc bags and everything is fresh.

I'll also add any that any Bud Light spot sucks, and I'm tired of all of Geico's campaigns--the cavemen are played out, and the gecko with the British accent is just plain stupid.

...and I'm tired of all of Geico's campaigns--the cavemen are played out, and the gecko with the British accent is just plain stupid

BLASPHEMY!!!

Those cavemen ads are hilarious every single time.

"I wouldn't be having an existential...MELTDOWN...right now."

"It's my mother. I'll put her on speaker."

"Hey guess what? Tina's here and we're getting back together."
"Hey! Could you give us a minute?"
Then the caveman looks all sad.

Hilarious campaign. But I agree if they turn it into a TV show it'll suck worse than the Dirty Dancing TV show. Which, uhh, I heard sucked.

Most all body spray ads are made of fail. The exception -- the Right Guard one with the ungodly hot brunette. The ad still sucks, but she's hot.
