Entertainment & Music Shitty annoying TV ads

[JezzasOnTheAsphalt]

Isn't advertising a wonderful thing. Doing it badly becomes memorable and effective in achieving brand awareness. Do a half decent job and average Joe won't be able to recall the ad by the next day.

It's worse when you watch something on a pay TV sports channel you have paid for and see ads for the pay TV sports channel you are watching.

FFS I've already bought the product.

It's break free siren-to-siren...except for 50 ads telling you that it's break-free

 

[Gralin]

ads aimed at adults don't bother me that much because I ignore them

kids advertising is such bullshit though

the number of collect them all double blind toys for sale that they promote all over the place, yeah it's ******* gambling you scumbags

also love how kids ads have tiny writing saying, toys don't actually move, backgrounds not included, animation used, multiple sets etc like the kid is going to notice that

a pox on advertisers

What about Coles mini shop and Woolies Christmas thing? They are aimed at adults with kids marketing.

they are aimed at kids and collectors

Yeah they’re ******* painful, among the worse.

Why do they use kids advertising? Who is taken in by this s**t?

I would like the drop kick every last actor singing that Coles Xmas carol

 

[Reynolds Number]

especially as he was so outraged by horses dying in the big race but happy to promote dead cows on a burger

Is there anything Whatley doesn't get on the moral high horse over?

How on Earth did Channel 7 think their cricket ads were a good idea?

"Hold on... ... I'm coming."

 

[Scotland]

Channel 7 think that if you broadcast in SD people won't notice.

 

[Rich]

Almost every AAMI ad

Surely it’s time we heard from Rhonda and Ketut again?

 

[Reynolds Number]

That Optus fish and chip shop ad.

My eyes.

 

[Cuzz09]

That Optus fish and chip shop ad.

My eyes.

I waa just gonna write that!!

Every ad seens to have a fat ugly guy say a few words then do a weird slow-mo dance to some weird slow techno music.

Must be what the kids like these days?

It's an optus ad?

I thought it was an air-task ad

With racing we’re very lucky to have racing.com which is just a normal, dedicated racing channel.

The Channel 7 coverage is horrendous, as you describe.

What? Everytime someone or a graphic says Shesthefastest is $4.20, that's an ad. That s**t shouldn't even be allowed a free-to-air channel, it's a 24/7 ad for gambling which is illegal for children to do. Horse racing is a ******* joke.

What? Everytime someone or a graphic says Shesthefastest is $4.20, that's an ad for the gambling sponsor. That s**t shouldn't even be allowed a free-to-air channel, it's a 24/7 ad for gambling which is illegal for children to do.

Yes, a 24/7 ad for TABs.

 

[Bunk Moreland]

Do you have a point? Perhaps re-read the conversation.

 

[Bomberboyokay]

Do you have a point?

The channel is an ad for gambling.

 

[Hoops]

• The ******* ad with the kid who buys an ice cream and has a rhyme for hand sanitiser 'clean, clean clean' or some s**t. - the five second rule still applies at our house even for ice cream on dog s**t.
• your 'local' linesman doesn't really exist (likely lives 10s of Km away) and wouldn't know you, or care if you happen to pump thousands of volts through yourself. let alone know your ******* name
• Any ad with the word 'down' followed by the word 'down'

Thats what i mean. Optus, air task thing. Saw some other one last night with a big mauri bloke.

Dunno
..

 

[iluvparis]

I actually like that Optus add where he asks for both types of salt

 

[Bunk Moreland]

Right. Thanks for quoting me when making a statement totally unrelated to my post or the conversation that was being had.

 

[Bomberboyokay]

You don't know what you're talking about.

 

[the fly]

Hmmm, should I walk in and ask for both?
