Cool Commercial

Just saw a commercial for the movie, Old School:

"The Miami Herald calls Old School, 'Pointless, stupid and offensive'. We say, 'Who cares?'"

I've got to admit -- I had no intention of seeing that movie, but I so liked the commercial that I may see it now.

If you're gonna watch commercials, at least watch funny ones.

with that, I give you Terry Tate, "office Linebacker."

I LOVE it when movie commercials showcase the bad reviews. I can't remember what other movie's done it (Howard Stern's Private Parts maybe?) but it always impresses me the way they say "fuck the critics".

Which reminds me, I think it's pretty sad if a movie can't put any better critic reviews on its ad than "***1/2 - a thrill ride".

Know whichs ones make me Laugh?

The IBM series

"Pixie dust"
"Pixe Dust?"
"How does it work?"
"Yes, Server goes down, Sprinkle some on, Server comes up, Sprinke enough on and the Server fixes itself"
"How expensive is it?
"Cheap"
"Chea?"
"Soy Based"
"Gentelment I think we have a winner"
Real life is not like this, But let IBM help you make it as close as we can

Truthfully, Old School was pretty funny. A hell of a lot funnier than most of the recent college movies.

I love the lie detector.

I also like the Old School commercial where it claims to be nominated for x amount of awards, shifts to one of the cast members giving a sappy speech about how great it is to be nominated, then shifts back to a different number of awards. It's funnier when you see it.

I like the Universal Business adapter, makes me laugh each time. I don't think we got the Pixie Dust one though.

Pity you guys never get to see the John Smith Beer adverts, they are funny as fuck.

I like the old IBM one where no-one could print.

The other movie commercial I really liked was for one of the Austin Powers movies a few years ago. The comercial went something like this:

IF YOU SEE ONE MOVIE THIS YEAR, SEE ..............

STAR WARS

IF YOU SEE TWO MOVIES THIS YEAR, SEE ....

AUSTIN POWERS

I really like the IBM commercials, they are funny. The time travel one is funny. "You go first!"

Those Terry Tate commercials are fricking funny too. Although, Ive never seen one outside of the website.

Anyone remember seeing the SmartBeep commercial where a girl gets in the car and blows a fart. Only to find out there already where people in the back seat?
