the plenty more fish (dot com!) advert

The Muller Rice 5 Grains advert is either terrible or fantastic. I can’t decide which. Both at the same time maybe.

That Sainsburys ‘singalong’ one is already looking like this year’s most annoying Xmas ad

Yeah I’m not a fan…disappointing as I like the cooking song they did, and that BBQ Tetris thing was pretty badass.

I’m a big fan of the bears and the tune, so I’m voting for brilliant.

Definitely terrible.

Ha ha, seen that as well about a month ago and couldn’t find it on youtube. Unbelievably bad

Not sure what’s best about it: the terrible acting, the cheesy joke at the end or the cool-in-1997 big beat soundtrack

When did it become a thing that every single supermarket chain has to release a five-minute Christmas ad? The fucking things are interminable and it’s still November FFS.

Also any advert for film or TV that includes an old song slowed down to sound all profound can seriously fucking do one. Come up with a new idea you coke-addled shitbuckets.

TBH I had pegged you as a Nestlé boycotter in any case.

Well that was meant to be a reply to TheWza but who knows what happened. Sorry.

What have I gobbed off about now?

Oh it was up there you saying you might boycott San Pelligrino due to the advert but I assumed you’d be a Nestlé boycott guy

Gotcha. Not religiously anti-Nestle but, yeah, fuck 'em, I try to avoid. :+1:

JFC I’ve only just clocked that Nestle own San Pellegrino. This world.

Easy peasy giving SP the swerve, though. Whole Earth, Cawston Press, Bundaberg, Fentimans, Luscombe… plenty of alternative poshtwat pops to be had.

i feel bad but… i quite enjoyed the new go compare advert :open_mouth:

love the comments pointing out that the actors are over doing it as if that’s not the entire piont

So, saw this earlier. Fucking hell.

the new We Buy Any Car (I think?) one where they’ve decided they love Philip Schofield baffles me. I like Schofield and all, but it’s odd.

I find the song humorously bad, so I quite like that one.

COFFEEEEE…

this one

something fucking so annoyingly privileged about the whole “yeah you’re a world traveler, buy this £800 phone so you can take pictures of all the indigenous people to upload to instagram so your equally vacuous friends can see how mature and traveled you are with your fucking stupid phone”

on trying to find the advert it looks like the voiceover guy, who adds to the fucking irritation immensely, is some kind of youtube personality which only makes it fucking worse. he might not actually be a youtube personality, you probably know better, i couldn’t be arsed to find out. please don’t tell me i don’t want to know.
