Fadingpain Posted July 14, 2018 Share Posted July 14, 2018 The Paulaner All Fruit commercial isn't terrible! It's pretty great. I need to think of a good one and will post later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fadingpain Posted July 14, 2018 Share Posted July 14, 2018 How about any of the Lincoln car commercials with Matthew Mcconaughey? Artificially artistic, obtuse, irrelevant to the cars they are trying to sell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keukasmallies Posted July 14, 2018 Share Posted July 14, 2018 Any commercial that features the automobile "carnival barker" Billy Fucillo and the posse of idiots he hires to promote the motto "Huge." A pox on the house of anyone who buys a car from one of his dealerships and thus furthers the showing of these commercials. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
