Have we had the new Toyota advert on here yet?
The 'because' one?
FFS. Really? A load of morons on social media use the phrase 'Because [insert word here]', so they make an ad with it?
Yep, we've had that one. Universally hated.The 'because' one?

I was passed far too closely by a Toyota Rav 4 last week on my bicycle. Because
, i thought.
Halifax have a new one. They've moved away from the Hanna Barbera cartoons and have now green-screened a supposed employee into iconic scenes from The Wizard of Oz. The last scene with the "employee" reciting the line "there's no place like home" alongside Judy Garland is particularly cringeworthy.

A new low, bring back Howard, all is forgiven

Don't watch live TV much at all anymore except for the C4 F1 coverage; those BOSE adverts that are sponsoring this years coverage are annoying as fook.
Completely OT, but DC was rather amusing about Christina Aguilera - " She's a good singer but I understand she has a squeaky talking voice" and "there's Christina again, pretending to be an F1 fan...." The lad has promise..........cuprabob said:

The new Indeed job site advert, using the Sunny loans soundtrack confused me. I was expecting the sleeves rolled up cereal munching free-loading bandana wearing tt (you just know he arrived three months ago needing somewhere to stay for a night or two, now they can't get rid of him).
t (you just know he arrived three months ago needing somewhere to stay for a night or two, now they can't get rid of him).I don't watch TV much either, but I was subjected to Skoda's new advert for (not sure of the car, speaks volumes) a new SUV type thing.
Paloma Faith dressed like a prostitute singing in front of a CGI crowd, make your own kind of music.
I really don't what to say about it, but it certainly won't be making me go out and buy a new Skoda.
A new level of cringe.

I just don't understand why they haven't canned it.On another note, I had to sit through 30-odd minutes of advertising at the cinema over the weekend - the one-legged spaz ballet dancer Axa ad, followed by a herd of horses running down a beach for no apparent reason, with s
te muzak & all for a fking bank, then countless other ads featuring utterly ste cover versions of otherwise decent music, 'sung' by someone who is clearly hoarse. FFS - I'm not going to bother with the cinema for a while!Biker 1 said:

Really ought to stop using the S word chap.
If the current crop of ads wasn't utterly completely st, I wouldn't have to use the 's' word. Perhaps you are a member of the advertising community? If so, there's an awful lot of st out there - maybe you could have a word.....Gassing Station | TV, Film, Streaming & Radio | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
