The problems with bashing your competition in ads:

  1. It acknowledges your competition
  2. It makes it seem like everyone who uses your competitor’s product is an idiot, which fails to endear them to your product and makes you seem like a jerk

Also hey you guys remember that song from 10 years ago by what was that band anyway they were in an ad for something last night, gonna go download it on iTunes now.

Not sure if this is an ad for The Darkness or an ad for Samsung.

Robocop’s appeal to kids always struck me. This is a movie that BEGINS with somebody getting mutilated by criminals.

Not a kids movie.

This cover of Devo’s Pity You appears on her album Word of Mouth, which was partly produced by Devo’s Mark Mothersbaugh and Gerald Casale.

Toni Basil was in her late 30s when she broke out with her hit Mickey in 1982. Today that wouldn’t happen. What record company would market a female pop star in her late 30s?

Starring Glen Howerton from It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia as Eric Forman…I mean Corey Howard. Probably no accident that the main character’s name is Corey, since the 80s was the decade of Coreys.
