Commercials - Great and Crappy
« on: November 08, 2010, 10:25:27 PM »
a great commercial:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hncudrWXpX0

it's put together really well and the message is easy to understand.  bonus is the appearance of kobe and kimmel and the choice of music.

a shitty commercial:

ok, this one starts out well enough.  cute baby, cute song.  neat idea being able to take a photo and send it to your printer to print out.  but then at about the 23 second mark the mother says something like "k, now lets send one to susan" and given the context of the commercial, that tells me that if you have one of these printers, one of your ahole friends can just start printing out their photos on your printer...using up your photo stock paper.  fuck that.

knowing nothing about this product, but knowing plenty about technology i can assure you that there will be some kind of set up procedure that one will have to undertake in order to use a printer from your phone.

The Terry Tate: Office Linebacker commercials were phenomenal. But they're so long, I'm not even sure they really qualify as commercials.

Not sure if "annoying" falls under the 'Crappy' category, but here you go.
