Lately there have been more ads. on tv which have left me completely bewildered and wondering what on earth they have to do with the thing they are selling. Or maybe its just me not being brainy enough to keep up with these marketing ideas :shock: There are three which I find particularly mystifying as to what message they are trying to get across.
In one some guy throws himself down 2 very steep embankments just so he can land in front of a car and tell the driver what a great car it is rolleyes What the hell is all that about.
Then in another car ad we get some guy being chased through the streets, up stairs and down alleys by a trouser press redface :shock: confused:
And what the hell has some guy and some gal in the States spouting Shakespear at each otther have to do with selling jeans :roll:
These make the 'if its on the tin' guy seem intelligent and witty!!
What, if any, ads irritate you guys???

Never watch any adversts on TV, they are all a load of bilge !!!

the very fact you remember them means they have worked.

Doubtful. I remember loads of ads that have left me with absolutely no idea what I'm supposed to buy. The one that sticks in my mind most is an ad for mountain bikes, and after about 6 months someone told me it was advert for shoes. Precisely what shoes, I have no idea. dunno

Theres some sites now that tell you the tune so you can get hold of it. My fave tune at the minute is T-Mobile (U-Fix) its melt with you by nouvelle vague, great tune.
another great one from T-mobile is Crayon by Manitoba
