Dietary supplement commercial: Guy makes fun of girl being fat. Girl does likewise. Results after a time, yadda-yadda. Lame cheesy talk on how they look like now, and we see the spinning camera effect that you see in The Matrix. Why!?

Car dealership commercials: they've ruined the lens flare. A kick-ass effect only left for Suns and chrome shine. Idiots.

Specific car dealership commercial: cheesy advertising. Recycles 3D model of their actual sign seen at their dealership from past commercials. Where the lighted marquee of lightbulbs is at, there is a plain 2D surface where it says WELCOME in Times New Roman. Genius.

"The General" car insurance commercial: lame cartoony "general" mascot drives a jeep. There's so much exhaust that it can cover all of the lanes on a freeway. He could put Los Angeles in a smog alert if he ran around the city a couple of times. Or not, since there's no reduction of exhaust when the damn jeep stops.

Toyota "Scion" billboard: a car for "Eddie, Anime artist." Anime's done in fucking 2D, bastards. Instead they've got 3D characters an amateur can model.

Trading card game: knocking off Pokemon and Yu-Gi-Oh, the commercial highlights this shitacular rip-off by showing the cards' characters: Marvel superheroes. And it's educational too! How? The cards has some random fact that nobody cares about. Well done.

Actually, blame Babylon 5 for the lens flare...stupid lens flare...so annoying.

Ever seen the animated short Rejected. Now if those were real promotions/commericals, I would not know why they would have been rejected. They were great.

Any New Englanders seen the bob's discount furniture Commercials!? Those are horrible. He names ugly sofas names like scooby-doo. And in some of them they insert him in vidoes of store and make it look like he's hopping around on giant sofas and he stops and then he looks like he's on a moving sidewalk. There are someother bad ones like this one car commercial that shows this guy's geeky looking kid and he keeps telling people to come by a car. Those empire carpet commercials arn't any better either.

Edit:Go Red Sox!!!!!!!
