Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion The Water Cooler The "Big Game" Commercials, what'd ya think?

Such a smack you are gonna get.

Actually, we "really old" folks learned, a long time ago, that when commercials come on, you can actually push a button and temporarily watch something that isn't trying to sell you drinks or tires or other things in which you have no interest. The few SB commercials I DID happen to see didn't make much of an impression on me. Although, I do remember having a general feeling that good taste and wit no longer are a factor in our society.

Hmm. If I agree with you, am I old, too?

No, just accurately wise.

No, that's coincidental.

I'm a big Jason Statham fan, so the Audi commercial he did was pretty funny. I thought it was very well done with lots of nice references, but it really helped if you knew his movies.

Reminds me of philosophy class. Not causal, coincidental. For example:

Bug spray causes drownings!

1. Sales of bug spray go up in the summer
2. Drownings go up in the summer
3. Bug spray causes drownings!

+1 for Rich.

I had sort of forgotten about that one. But yes, that commercial wasn't too bad. I do remember chuckling at the look he gives the Lexus.

I'm with you Ken, for some reason I just can't get into a whiny woman race car driver who really believes she's the hottest thing since sliced bread ... and the media really hypes her.

I thought the Doritos was the best commercial last night, overall they all pretty much sucked though.

Well, you have to admit, she is good. She's just not consistent. I have high hopes for Ana Beatriz (last year in Indy Lights). Of course, Target Chip Ganassi will probably be impossible to beat this year, but at least they dumped Dan Whatshisname.

I could beat both of them. I'm really good at Gran Turismo on the PS3.
