    Carlsberg Euro 2012 ticket ads featuring fashionably dressed hipster actors who look more like bandwagoners then die-hard fans.

    "I would sing the Fields of Athenry in Polish..."

    Wow, what commitment... somebody give that guy a ticket!

    Didn't Carlsberg used to make good Ads?

    What makes marketers think that having someone snoring loudly on the radio is effective?

    That Eircom ad with the daughter stroppily moaning that the broadband has gone down 'againnnn'. She sounds like she's involved in mission critical work for NASA keeping a satelite airborne. Jebus! I'd tell her if she wants to go on with that attitude she can pay for her own broadband and I'd let her off to Brad in ABQ just to get her out of the house and have some peace. Stroppy little bitch. Eircom ads are ****e!

    Reminds me of the old StatOil advert with Sven, Anders or whatever his name was. Think it turned out he was actually American?


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,185 ✭✭✭Snoopy1


    The spec Savers ad, where the couple are throwing stones into the water, and the girl throws the engagement ring in.

    A. The bloke looks like a complete moron and really annoys me.
    B. The girl deserves to be thrown into the lake

    Yeah its a pathetic ad, with that Muppet fella saying nothing and his mouth open catching flies:rolleyes:.They seem like a pair of kids.Could the makers come up with something a bit better

    I am not so sure about the girl though, she is a bit cute:p


  • Registered Users Posts: 746 ✭✭✭ladypip


    Always. Have a happy period..

    Seriously who thought that gem up, how patronising and unrealistic. What planet do advertising people live on?

    Have a delightful Migraine :D

    Not a Star Wars fan but how people with Marketing degrees are allowed to lazyily suggest pimping Darth Vader out to PC World and Yoda to Vodafone is crazy. It makes me hate those companies even more.

    As well as giving away cash for gold down in the Glossy Tracksuit Centre, Thomas Gear also holds the distinction of having the most, despicable, irritating, unconvincing, put-on accent south of Svalbard.

    I've never met him, but based on that ad alone, I wouldn't trust him as far as I'd throw him.

    I have been shopping in Thomas Gear Jewellers recently and bought my Finacee's engagement ring here, I was so glad to get that old school service you don't get in some of the shops on Henry street and beyond. The girls were so eager to help, I hadnt a clue about diamond rings, never mind engagement rings. And to boot I met Thomas Gear himself, he sounds exactly like off the ad lol but such a genuine man and very friendly.

    Cheers,
    Rob.

    There's an ad on at the moment (I can't remember what it's for, but it's something to do with children) which features loads of kids running round, and singing "We don't want to get in line!" over and over on the soundtrack.

    Well I'm sorry if you don't want to get in line, but you're children, so do what you're bloody told!

    The new Heineken ad is pretty rubbish. Saw it last night. Just some guys on a train for 30 hours or something travelling through Europe

    That's a long ad. :) Not in the same league as the old Guinness ads.
