...that Audi eco-nazi commercial sent the wrong message at our house...there's too much of that going on right now as it is...I don't need a glimpse into an eco-totalitarian future...I guess the Europeans thought it was very clever, but it disgusted me.
Soft bodies with pants on the ground. Don’t know what they were advertising but it ruined my dinner.
I liked the Audi commercial. It was both funny and cautionary.
You don’t buy “That’s a compost violation!” as parody?
Entirely too many ads with men in their tighty whitey’s (sp?).
Agreed. It wasn’t a parody.
It was sending the message that you pass the ecofacists test if you drive an Audi TD.
Thats all.
That commercial should be a warning to everyone of what’s in store if we allow global warming hysteria to control our politics and laws.
My wife and I got the wrong message also. We thought “stop making so many environmental regulations!”
I thought the Tebow ad was a bit weird. In a good way.
I mean, all the hype and venom being spewed out....
for THAT?
Served as a “checkmate” and the pro-aborts.
That Audi commercial was a direct attack on the eco-nazis in the California legislature. Clear as day.
In 2007 VW/Audi planned to introduce in 2010 the BlueTec Diesel engine into the United States, it’s the most fuel efficient engine mass produced in the world. The throwback envirowhackos in California have a anti-diesel engine law based on a NIMBY reflexive response from the 1970’s. So VW/Audi can’t import the engine and transmission to the USA.
Exactly... that commercial really pi**ed me off...
I LOVE that 1984 MacIntosh ad... unforgettable!
I thought there were waaaaaaay too many gophers. Like every commercial had a gopher.
I first thought it might be a parody but something didn’t click all the way. So I checked out their website.
“While the Audi Green Police will be reaching over 100 million on Super Bowl Sunday, we hope that their efforts provide even a fraction of the benefits that the everyday official green police units in the United States, the United Kingdom, Vietnam and Israel are having in educating their populace and enforcing environmental protection laws within their own countries.”
I take it that Audi loves this crap.
Commercials that try to send a message turn me off. I also can’t stand ‘talking kids and babies’, or those noisy ones that seem to make no sense. Even the group I was with tonight (all ages) asked what some of them were all about.
I will remember only one commercial from tonight. Just as in past years, the Clydesdale horses have humor, taste, and are interesting enough to remember even years later. I won’t forget the one tonight -— and I WILL buy Budweiser in thanks.
You could almost not tell that the Audi commercial was poking fun at Greens, tho. Celebrating and poking fun both, I thot.
Great game, tho. Amazing touchdown, that safety Saints guy!
I thot the ads were bad across the board. A new generation of ad-writers, nothing like those ten years ago.
Well, if liberals HATE diesel, then I guess the Audi commercial was ok.
I thought it was really funny.
My husband got my lip balm and put it in his pocket and said I am going out to get a Charger. I really laughed at that.
No he is not getting the car. .-)
Isn’t it funny? Say that it costs Anheuser-Busch Inbev $1K per month to house a Clydesdale. Isn’t that the best ROI you can imagine?
I think ridicule works well.
As Rush says, illustrating absurdity by being absurd.
I liked the Audi commercial. I hope it’s the beginning of the end of insane environmentalism.
Oh, I hate “Don’t touch my mama.” Such a sad commentary, a little boy having to run interference on his mom’s “dates.”
