I've never gotten to the point of hating a commercial before. But I serious hate this commercial. It is dissonant and jarring. Save by zero. I hate this commercial, please make it stop.
Everytime this commercial comes on it's the first one into the commercial break...no time to click away!!!
This has even to top the complete irritation of the Chevy "This Is our Country" ads of previous NLF seasons.
If you're wondering why they're so damn persistent with this commercial, you should read this article in the NYtimes today: http://www.nytimes.com/2008/11/19/business/economy/19ports.html?_r=1&scp=3&sq=toyota&st=cse Basically since business is so bad they're having to buy parking space at ports to store all their unsold cars that come off the boats from Japan. They may as well push the advertising and sell the cars for less than they would otherwise than deal with the overhead of storing unsold cars.
Save by Zero Just a random note, I cant seem to get this stupid ad out of my head. It seems every commercial break during Rocket games, this stupid Toyota promo airs. The more i see it, the more I freaking hate it. Does anyone else agree this has flooded the basketball broadcasts to a insane point. Doesnt every year the Rockets air only the crappiest commercials over and over, and over...AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW. Here it is looped 19 times for those who just dont quite hate it as much as I do. <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Be5Xy66cwD0&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Be5Xy66cwD0&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>
I was at the National Toyota meeting in October in Vegas when they premiered that spot. I was thinking to myself, "That's gonna get old. That already got old." Sorry, man. It was out of my hands. Nothing I could do to stop it. It is a horrible spot.
there has been 3 threads about this commercial. those people who did the ad are getting promotions now.
I recorded it on my phone and send it to my best friend randomly throughout the day just to piss him off.
I just can't understand why they just didn't use the original version by the Fixx. The re-recorded version sounds kinda crappy.
SAVED BY ZERO: THE THREAD THAT WON'T STOP seriously, it is terrible and is up there with OUUUUUUUUUUUUURRRRR COUNTRY. but we are talking about it and remember it, so the ad has worked
