My Butterfinger Commercials

Post by NathanBarnatt »

Do you think these Butterfinger commercials should air on TV? I'm awaiting a response from their ad agency.

Butterfinger's Is Easy

Nice effort, but nah. I wanted to laugh, but couldn't. In no way do I want a butterfinger. These would be a little bit better without the awkward pauses. That works for some ads, but not these.

I agree. Not made for TV. It has no direction and the message doesn't really come across, unless you are trying the Sonics Fast Food commercial approach. Those Sonics commercials irritate the hell out of me.

I like the one that says something about "whatever I want... anytime, always" or something of the sort.

They are funny, however, the masses probably wouldn't get that style of comedy. (the average person doesn't even get stuff like "Mr Show" or movies like "Wet Hot American Summer")

The only way to deactivate the ray beam and fight back the vampire alien threat is with a complicated series of foot patterns on the device's control board that looks remarkably like a DDR pad. We will all praise this man for saving our lives and buy him a mountain of stuffed animals.

Your a funny guy, like someone said in the thread about your car ad you just look funny. I cant put my finger on who you remind of in that way, but its someone I laugh at just because of the look on their face.

The butterfungers ads sure are offbeat but I like that, I rarely find mainstream comedy funny
