I know what I'd like to do with the tie

 

[Crabby Shrimper]

The current envirofone one really annoys me, especially the **** that says wonga!

 

[Vange Shrimper]

Go Compare is definitely one of the worst adverts ever made. I now switch the TV on mute whenever it comes on so I don't have to listen to that crap.

 

[Rudi Luftwaffe]

The George Clooney Martini commercial.

If he knocked on my door carrying a bottle of Martini I'd take it of him and wrap it round his ****ing head.

I find replacing the original words with "Go Compare, your Pubic Hair" makes it more acceptable.

I always wondered what you did for work Ken :winking:

Yeah the meercat voice really gets on my nerves now. They've flogged it to death.
We buy any car.CON. Try for yourself. Just type in your car registration number on their website and see what a pittance they offer you. Those blasted 118 commercials. Any one using that number must be very stupid or loaded. No wonder they can play them so many times.

Can't believe we've gotten this far without a mention of the Haribo advert, or that Figo just for men one.

Which one, the "sign the 'fession!" one? I love that!

 

[BLUEBLOOD]

Good call for Fig leaves awful acting ..

I see the Go Compare ad now has a troupe of busty honeys on it :thumbsup:

that opera singing see you next Tuesday remains though :thumbdown:

All advertising is the work of the devil.

The Confused.com advert is by far the most irritating on TV at the moment, the one where they are trying to shoe horn as many mentiones of Confused.com inot the YMCA song. I would like to meet the bright spark that dreamt that up.

Also, an honourable mention for any advert that's been dubbed for the UK market and the producers think we won't notice.

Invariably produced by huge companies like Procter and Gamble who are too tight to produce different adverts for each market.

That's why they are so big!

Leger Holidays (might just be a northern ad)

The guy who did Super Size Me has done another film called Super Sell Me all about product placement, should be interesting.

Indeed. I watched a documentary about Bill Hicks ( may he RIP) a month ago and his tirade against marketing/PR/advertising is eye opening.

Considering the amount of money spent on subsidising sport, I'm willing to overlook many of their excesses.

That advert is so annoying that it actually makes me feel borderline violent.

(although I quite like the Confused.com ones)

*blinks at the screen in complete and utter disbelief*
