A guy in a wheelchair with 2 broken legs in plaster is watching the Rugby World Cup. He's jumping out of his chair with a TAB form (A betting ticket) in his hand very very excited. He's like 3 foot in the air with plaster on his feet.
That's not the point. The slogan on the poster is:
"Rugby Union. It's better when you bet"
Now all me and my friends could think of when we saw this was. "He can't be the worlds best gambler because he's had both his kneecaps broken by Blades and Mr.Icehook"
I don’t mind slogans as much as commercials that simply say, buy me! Yet they give no facts or information on the product.
Ex: The 1-800-Collect commercials: Horrible acting with some lady in an angle costume (WTH why?), and all they ever say is use 1-800-collect, it’s the obvious choice, over and over, but they never give any kind of information, or even say that they are better/cheaper/faster.
The most abhorrent, atrocious, awful, base, beastly, contemptible, cursed, deplorable, despicable, detestable, disgusting, execrable, foul, grim, hairy, hateful, heinous, hellish, horrible, loathsome, lousy, nasty, nauseating, obnoxious, odious, offensive, repellent, reprehensible, repugnant, repulsive, revolting, rotten, sleazeball, stinking, terrible, very bad, vile, wretched things I've ever had burned into my eyes and ears.
WHAT THE HELL ARE THEY ADVERTISING FOR? Black models singing hiphop in a limo while listening to the most horrendous (Hmm I missed that one) rendition of 'let it snow' ever? Stupid women making corny lines with squeaky voices that make me want tear out her vocal cords and hang myself with them?
And for the record, the best commercials were the Eagle Insurance commercials.
Two stupid bimbos standing by a car. "Oh no! What am I going to do now! Wait! What's that! It's a plane! No, it's... <b>eagleman!</b>"
(The most terrible eagle costume you've ever seen materializes on top of their car. Honestly an Eagle that big would probably weigh about 1400 pounds.)
"Iiiiii'vee got soooommeeethiiiinng for yooooooooou!"
(Eagle then squats to prepare to take an olympic pool-sized bird **** on the car, and much to my dismay, an egg materializes instead (EagleMAN lays eggs... right))
(Egg hatches and a little eagle puppet pops out with an insurance form)
Bimbos in unison: "Wow! Look at those LOOOW RAATES!!!"

You know in supermarkets the crap that they hang up in the aisles; not quite products on the shelves but little impulse-buy things? Usually cheap plastic toys? At a local supermarket they've got a range of... everything, really, entitled <something>It. Like, the knife is called "CutIt", the lights are called "LightIt".
I'm sure somewhere there's some poor moron who appreciates these thoughtful names. I can just imagine him looking at the kebab skewers, helpfully called "SkewerIt", and saying to himself "Ooooh! I thought these were cleaning implements", and then pondering what he's supposed to Skewer.

Marketing is designed to prey on idiots... so yeah they're gonna go down to their level. Anyone with a half a brain and a shred of willpower isn't going to be impressed by a fancy slogon, or want to mimic some ninny they have acting in the commercial just because they're attractive or funny or whatever.
I really have to wonder what Pepsi and McDonalds and all the other megacorps think they have to gain from advertising, other than for a special offer. It's not like we don't already know who they are. I guess they're trying to foil our efforts to scrub them out of our minds.
At least every once in a while you get an ad for something that you might actually want to buy, but had no idea it existed. Somehow I think those work out better.
It is a necissary evil, however. Our current systems of internet and television content providing rely on it.

-It's The Cola. (Pepsi) No it isnt, Coka-Cola is. And shouldn't it be "Its The Cola" since its reffering to a singular object thingie?
Commercials: -Car Commercials In General When was the last time you WANTED to see a car commercial? Why can't they ever show cool cars? Why do they keep making the same type of crap?
-Victoria's Secret Commercials I would like to take the executives that made these things and make them sit through one with their mothers.
-Any Commercial for an NBC/CBS/Fox Show They all suck. Even the Simpsons has been tainted by suckitude.
-Video Game Commercials I love video games, but the commercials for them are always sucky. Mostly because they show stuff that would look very boring to anyone not familiar to how hard it is to make something like that. Like for the Max Payne 2 ad, they had an explosion go off and a guy get tossed accross the room, big deal to the average viewer. To a gamer, its awsome because it really shows off the physics and lighting.

Why should I?
-Its Good To Play Together. (Microsoft XBox)
What ever happened to short and sweet? Why not "Kickass with Your Friends"?
-In the Year 2003, Uma Thurman will Kill Bill. (Kill Bill)
Nice way to give away the ending. Especially since the final Volume won't be released until <b>2004</b>!
-It's The Cola. (Pepsi)
No it isnt, Coka-Cola is. And shouldn't it be "Its The Cola" since its reffering to a singular object thingie?
Commercials:
-Car Commercials In General
When was the last time you WANTED to see a car commercial? Why can't they ever show cool cars? Why do they keep making the same type of crap?
-Victoria's Secret Commercials
I would like to take the executives that made these things and make them sit through one with their mothers.
-Any Commercial for an NBC/CBS/Fox Show
They all suck. Even the Simpsons has been tainted by suckitude.
-Video Game Commercials
I love video games, but the commercials for them are always sucky. Mostly because they show stuff that would look very boring to anyone not familiar to how hard it is to make something like that. Like for the Max Payne 2 ad, they had an explosion go off and a guy get tossed accross the room, big deal to the average viewer. To a gamer, its awsome because it really shows off the physics and lighting.
