Ralonzo Posted February 3, 2014 Author Share Posted February 3, 2014 8:45pm 1) In a world filled with war, sometimes the most powerful weapon is sex. Axe Piece. 2) Grizzly in store, Chobani. What a tubby, out-of-shape bear. Ironically, the "Axe Peace" commercial made me want to kill something. I thought they said "Arsepiece". I was trying to find the Burnistoun Gym sketch 8:52pm 1) The world of Morpheus has been pulled over a commercial. And the world of Pagliacci has been pulled over Lawrence Fishburn's Strachan-gap. Kia K-900. Kinda liked that. 2) Sprint Store. When are you going to have bars over more than 3 square blocks, you bums. 3) Heinz... my grandma sounds like that without ketchup. 8:56pm 1) Bruce Willis choking some guy out. Is that Jared from Subway? I hope so. Honda. 2) Lt Chuck's Nads came home. Budweiser trying to suck extra life for their "beating a dead horse" ad campaign by sending a dude to the Super Bowl. You aint fooling me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ralonzo Posted February 3, 2014 Author Share Posted February 3, 2014 9:03pm 1) Is there anything more American than America? I dunno, is there anything more bizarre than Bob Zimmerman? Let Germany brew your beer, let Asia assemble your watch? That reminds me of a joke: In Heaven you get: an American salary, a British house, a Chinese cook, and a Japanese wife.

I guess Scarlett Johansson has some pull. just not pulling on the things I would like her to. 3) Ho-hum, a British vehicle with an electrical fire. What a surprise. Oh wait, that IS Jack Bauer.

BillsFan-4-Ever Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 Was that really the Dynobots in Transformers 4? Yes they were. I turned the game off in the middle of the 3rd QTR. Even though I wanted to see the commercials the game had nothing left in it to interest me. in poor taste, at least to me, to hear America the Beautiful used as a promotional tool for such a crappy product like sugar water/Coca Cola. Even more insulting to use some sort of universal diversity type idea as the tool for the song. Sorry we speak English here. gotta be one or two in the crowd. What is America made up of? Immigrants. Immigrants that speak different languages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Immigrants that speak different languages. yep. We are just flag waving, patriotic homers. Can't stand the minorities. Need to close the borders and build fences. We hate everyone. Dude. Come on. If this was a game with international appeal. An event which would be watched by a diverse crowd. Something of actual importance to this world. It would be different. Its the Super Bowl. Playing what the rest of the world calls American Football. So why the hell does anything else but America matter? And since we are so great. Ya know, immigrants and all, cool. But we export our products and image. I am not cool with propping up celebs to tout products like Coke. We are one overweight country. We have so many issues beyond that but why do we sit here and believe Beyonce drinks Pepsi? Or whoever drinks coke? Outside of this country soft drinks are not that popular, compared to this country, at least. Using a fake image of Uhmerika to prop up a fake drink that creates real Americans while pandering to some international crowd reeks of stupidity. The only worse example yesterday was BOA and Apple teaming up and spending how many millions to pay U2 to give away a song for free? For every download paid for they'll donate to AIDS research...why not just donate a flat rate and cut the crap out of the middle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the commercial reeked of insincere pandering, but I'm certain the point was that America is diverse and should be celebrated as such, not that Coke was appealing to an international audience.

"Faster, B word!" 2) Prom commercial, TurboTax, guy gets his date stolen by Crispin Glover. 3) The Strain... is that like, 28 Days Later The Series? Oh s**t - a callout on the first page! Little did we know that Payton would have a full on Edward's like meltdown... Great commercial reviews Ralonzo, you were spot on most of the time! IMO this was one of the worst years ever for commercials - I'm not even sure I have a favorite spot and I'm a marketer who's client is one of the biggest spenders at the game.

Its not just Americans. Its people. Anyway. As chef points out. Drinking a beer doesn't mean youre an alcoholic. Or even after just 1 beer doesn't mean you're drunk. However. I will attempt to continue on your failed logic You must be 21 to drink. Able to make the decision of what you're doing. But its still bad calories, promoting a poor lifestyle and I don't agree with it either. Most of those beers are mass consumer beers and taste like crap anyway. We don't need to be consuming sugar at the rate we do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice Try chef.if pimping Coke and Pepsi promotes overweight FAT people, well then, what you said. I worked with a guy that loaded his plate to overflowing then ordered a diet soda. It's not always the sugar sweetened soda. I have traveled across the globe (well before you were born jboyst62). PEOPLE all over the world drink Soda. Look up Inca Kola for example. Better yet let me help you http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inca_Kola It is a soft drink that was created in Peru in 1935. remind me again.... when did obesity became a problem? and when was the last era in which sports people didn't do drugs for enhanced performance?
