Title: How Is This Suppose to Sell...
Post by: InformationGeek on March 20, 2010, 03:34:08 PM
Sometimes commercials do not work and only make me look at them with complete confusion and disbelief.  Then there are commercials that make me say, how this suppose to convince to buy that thing?  How many commercials can you think of that shouldn't really convince anyone to buy that product.  Here's two:

I remember when that second one aired a few years ago . . . the other I saw on Snopes.com; I don't hink it ever aired in the states.  I would definitely NOT buy that car!!

like half the ads are so dumb all you can think of is how bad they are and don't even consider the thing they are selling

I think if you graduate from film school and can't find a job (even Troma won't take you on as an unpaid intern), then you get a job in advertising.

I actually like the Sport Ka commercials.

I would never buy a Sport Ka, but at least this is better than about 99% of the other commercials I've seen.  I've always hated car commercials, jeans commercials, and the old MCI commercials.  I wish I could find the really annoying one with the annoying operator who says, "Put it in writing, AT&T."
