Most annoying TV ads

i think everyone hated this ad. what i loved about it though was that after about the 6th month of their 'two week sale' the guy started sounding more and more suicidal. he was almost crying in those final ads. i thought by the end of the last ad we would hear a shotgun for sure.

I have to disagree with you on that one. I think there's only one thing more corny than an American ad - and that's an American ad with dubbed over Aussie voices. Do the people who dub those ads think that because the people are now speaking with an Australian accent, we will believe them more? The situation and context of the ad is still American, even if the voices are.
A lot of the ads that have been mentioned (like the Herbal Essences and the Franklins ones), I actually find amusing to watch because they're so corny and lame. There are few ads that I actually despise with a passion, but these include two new Coca Cola ads.
In one of them, a guy's car breaks down in the desert, but then he hitches a lift with an attractive young woman. In another, three guys are trying to carry a lounge up an apartment stairwell, but the lounge gets stuck, so all the women going up and down the stairs have to squeeze past the lounge in order to get past (of course the guys are now sitting on the lounge enjoying the view).
Quick! Pass me a bottle of coke!! If I drink some, perhaps I will fall into an amusing predicament in which hoardes of attractive young women will come out of nowhere and start flirting uncontrollably with me? And maybe if I drink enough of it, the situation will descend into a hard-core orgy of passion and sex, because God knows women can't resist the lure of a guy with a bottle of Coke!!

The add with the basketball player looking down the top of the chick interviewing him. It's for some mints or something, and it beyond pathetic.
 
those new mcdonalds ads with the kids singing "we do ron ron ron..." have you notice what a scary looking bugger ronald is? i would think those kids would be having nightmares now!
and i'll go one up on the annoyingness of the napi-san challenge... BIG KEV (Im EXCITED!) eeeugh!
Andromeda :)
 
That fucking shitty ad with all those people in that hous...
...hangon... that's Big Brother.
 
those fookin' new 'bill rage' adds by virgin mobile...my loathing cant be put into owrds (c wot i mean!)
..yeh and that mint add with the bballer and busty reporter...
FUCK OFF!
 
I love advertising.
I'd rather watch good ads, than bad shows.
People often make fun of funniest advertisment shows. "You watch ads, and then watch more ads. Ha."
Yeah, but advertising is an art. Filming shit 'dramas' week in week out isnt.
That said, there's a lot of ads I hate, but usually when I'm being lied to. Often by Telstra, or the government propaganga, and shit like that.
But if you see through their lies, the only thing to be sad about is that theres people out there who are dumber than you who don't realise it.
 
Fucking brand power commercials - Helping you buy better = BULLSHIT. Gee do you think that maybe those brands paid to get featured by brand power?? Of course not...its a totally independant body actiing out of good will. And those famous people like Jo Baily talking aboutu how great brand X washing detergent is. You have sold your fucking soul. I wonder if she even does the dishes??
The AFL using footage of poor aboriginal kids playing football and having a great time to promote the sport. Like they really give a damn about those kids, unless of course they will help them to win something and earn lots of money.
But mostly all those fucking bank adds trying to be your friends. The bank helping you grow through life, smiling children running home from school and sprinklers, lots of dogs and cute pets, happy families facing life tough challenges but making it because of a BANK???????
GET ME A BUCKET I WANT TO SPEW
ALL I EVER GET FROM THE BANK IS MAIL TELLING ME ABOUT NEW FEES AND CHARGES - THANKS FOR HELPING ME GROW
 
OOOOOOPPPPPS
Sorry I did not mean to post that 3 times. Had some difficulty making the post and therefore had to push the button a few times. Sorry, i'm not really that angry.
 
ok im not sure EXACTLY what the brand ios, but there a series of ads with the same lady... for medical insurance!
THE CHICK WITH THE HUGE EYES!!! shes blonde and is always talking and MAN HER EYES ARE FUCKING HUGE! coming from me (someone very used to seeing people with huge eyes hehe) THIS chick FREAKS me out!!!! lol
my flatmate thinks so too... shes so freaky!
 
^^^^^
They're ads for HCF, and yes I agree, her eyes are freakishly large. Not just that, but she's always smiling - ALWAYS. In one commercial she's recieving facial acupuncture. There's a guy standing over here sticking needles into her face and she's STILL smiling and talking into the camera.
For some reason, she reminds me of the kind of person who always puts on a happy face to the world, but deep down has a lot of repressed issues and psychological trauma. Sometimes when watching those ads, I get the impression she's just teetering on the brink of total insanity and any minute she could just explode!
She scares me. @_@

about the hcp ad, i seriously think her eyes have been digitally fixed to do that..they cant be REAL!
i also have to hand the LOWES ads with a bad ad award, they all suck and on purpose!
 
I'm with Andromeda, that Maccas ad scares the shit out of me. But the new Maccas ad has a different Ronald in it, they thought we wouldn't notice.
But that ad with the old lady who runs out to the mailbox and gets really excited and jumps around in circles...that ad gives me nighmares. *shudders*
