    Zoolander head on him like he was practicing his cute face in the mirror for an hour before the ad was filmed.

    "What has she seen?" She's everyone's annoying daughter/granddaughter/little sister. Accurate enough, I've no recollection of the first half of the Ireland England rugby as my 2½ year old grandaughter- Eir ad prototype nagged me mercilessly for 45 minutes. She then went quiet when she found a pencil, unnoticed by me, to my cost. The grief I got when swmbo came in and seen the artwork.

    The huge arse is an advertising masterstroke.

    The irony of the eir ad all over boards

    Only bettered by the gigantic arse on that lovely girl in the Tesco ad with that "you're gorgeous" song.

    Yep, the big arse woman at the end of the Advert was what's called in Tech Circles an "Easter Egg" to get a laugh from those in the know 😁

    'A PINT OF COORS PLEASE!!' shouted in the scummiest accent they could find



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,309 ✭✭✭Photobox


    That awful finish dishwasher tablets ad that's dubbed terribly.. Father and daughter looking online up why it smells.. I reach for the remote when I hear that high pitched dubbed voice!

    All of the Rugby World cup ads but in particular the one focusing on Andy Farrell and flashing back to his childhood playing rugby , forgetting of course that Andy Farrell didn't play Rugby Union as a child he played Rugby league and therefore this supposed wonderful moment of showing the life long connection of Andy Farrell's to the game he's now coaching and how deeply embedded in him it is is basically a load of crap.

    Can't tell you how much I hate that ad. It's got everything: annoying Yanks celebrating someone's birthday in the office when they should be long gone home to their families; exclusion of someone who's different; oh but that's OK because it's someone French, not gay/black/disabled, ha ha, we're so funny; lame corporate joke about struggling on conference calls, ha ha again. "You don't have to be mad to work here, but it helps!"

    I actually love the twix ad with the bears watching the two people eating twix and the no matter which one you choose it’s delicious



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,074 ✭✭✭sicknotexi


    Those Crown paint ads with all the young people. Stop trying to make paint cool.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,190 ✭✭✭dominatinMC


    Surely been mentioned before, but by God, do I hate that new Tesco ad which screams "I got the power". So bloody annoying and would actually turn me off going into Tesco



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 7,901 ✭✭✭deezell


    Yes, its been toasted a few weeks ago. Both versions of the ad are jaw dropping idiocy, maybe it suits Brexit brained tabloid larger types.



  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators, Paid Member Posts: 27,972 Mod ✭✭✭✭Posy


    I love that ad, it's so clever!

    I think it's the only ad at the moment that isn't annoying as hell.

    SuperValus climate emergency ad on every podcast. Not if I win the sweep will I darken yer doors again. Trying to frighten the shite out of children making them feel guilty about a tax.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,309 ✭✭✭Photobox


    And the way she says 'communidy' not enough eye rolls in the world for it.

    The like Super Valu ad with like the Irish girl talking in like an American accent.

    The ad with the woman who keeps pronouncing bacteria with an r at the end of it. "Bacteriar".

    The Guinness ad with the incredibly punchable group of men and women moving the table.

    Speaking of punchable faces. The Avonmore ad. "Ready?" "Readyish."

    I miss the Tesco ad with the cute girl with the enormous arse and her friend with the carrot tan.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,250 ✭✭✭✭Thargor


    Wow they're really ramming the rugby down our throats at the minute, that "Listen lads we have to be brothers" one has to be the most cringe aswell and it feels like its on twice per ad break. Hilarious aswell the way they though to themselves "How can we fit a token minority into an ad featuring the Irish rugby team?" and their solution was to have a random African lady standing in the background during their locker room speech lol, was she there when they were walking around naked before changing into their kit aswell?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 555 ✭✭✭JeffreyEpspeen


    Two minorities in the locker room flashback as well. Because, you know, black children totally played rugby in Northern England in the late 70s and early 80s.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 7,901 ✭✭✭deezell


    Sooo fake and contrived. I hate these ads with the teams in them. Bad luck too. Remember Keano dressed as a Samurai before 2002 world cup? Yep.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,434 ✭✭✭cute geoge


    Imo it is the 1 ad that hits the spot,it just roars out the craic in bars



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32,863 ✭✭✭✭AndrewJRenko


    I don't follow rugby, so I had no idea that these are supposedly famous people until it was pointed out here or somewhere online. Does it really make sense to choose a celeb from such a niche area for a national campaign?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32,863 ✭✭✭✭AndrewJRenko


    Big strange having the Eir workman in the house alone with the little girl. Do they not have child protection policies in Eir?

    That awful mcDonalds averts with the 80s music, the van has a black dad and white mother, the next car has an indian guy driving, white kids in the back, and all the rest have all different races, talk about trying their hardest to be pc.

    It's becoming so obvious now. Every one of these marketing companies behind these ads are obsessed with mixed race families, as if they are part of some sort of idealistic utopia.
