We should change the title of this thread to "Adverts which irritate and entertain Chie".

Oh, again? They ran that ad campaign earlier this year, because of it being an incredibly poor concept barely anyone noticed it.

The new Mr. Muscle ad, with the speech not matching the actors' mouth movements greatly annoy. In fact, any adverts which do that wind me up.

We get that sort of dubbing with a lot of ads, but I always find it ridiculous when they do it with toothpaste ads. It's the one ad where you're obviously going to be directing attention to the mouth!

I saw it yesterday at a ford dealers, i thought it must be a joke, the only other advert to give me that reaction was Cillit Bang.

The adverts are actually very simillar now...

I'm sure I've posted this already but bloody hell, this is the WORST dubbing in history. Considering it's a company as large as Renault and it's set in a SHOWROOM you'd think they'd have the money and inclination to re-shoot it in english instead of this awfulness: http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=k4ogWSb9LOc

What about the Frosties ad, they're guna taste great... etc. That was the most annoying ad ever, and luckily I hear the boy acting in it got shot. Serves him right! :lol:

I really like the Spin Star trailer on ITV. The soundtrack was used as a jingle on a wallpaper advert years ago, but I could never remember what it was called until I heard it again on the trailer.
