I Pit Thee: dumb ass marketing commercial assholes!

Für Elise was written by Benny Hill as sketch music. That’s the first time I ever heard it, anyway, and is what I will forever associate it with.

What I find hilarious about the Subway commercial is the disclaimer flashed across the bottom of the screen saying that the shots of people falling were done with professional stunt people.

No shit Sherlock. I thought it was all for real.

Your wish, my command; you know the drill.

Enjoy. Oh, and P.S.: Jeno’s, not Gino’s. Boy, is my face red. :o Orange.

Oboe concerto. Funnier that way.

Cool! Thanks much!!

Boy they have everything on Youtube don’t they?

I don’t know about that. Just yesterday I tried to find a clip of Harvey Korman watching a movie of Cleavon Little walking into the theater that Harvey was sitting in, and I couldn’t find a thing.

Well, I did find this clip of Charles Boyer offering to take some frail to the Casbah, but it just ain’t the same thing.

This one? Starts at about 2 minutes.

People in, oh, about 190 countries, give or take.

Did you live in my house??? :eek::eek:

We don’t have the Heathkit anymore, but I still have the LP. :slight_smile:

What’s funny is that Niply Elder is actually wrong. The piece of music used in the current Subway ad is from Bizet’s Carmen Overture. The 1812 Overture was used in a very similar commercial about three years ago. Don’t believe me? I can’t find a link to a recording of the ad currently being run, only the old one. But I am %100 certain, beyond the shadow of a doubt, that I am correct.

Pssst: check out the date of the original post!

This is the cereal that’s shot from guns!
The only cereal that’s shot from guns!

Not that being raped in the public domain is a GOOD thing, but in this case it’s not a NEW thing.

I associate it with A Charlie Brown Christmas.

He tended to decompose, IIRC :slight_smile:

Solution: Get rid of the idiot box.
