jtherkal: Okay, you had me interested at the beginning, and then somehow the rest is just a letdown. I guess I didn’t expect him to turn the dogs into servants. And if those dogs were so smart, they would have told that guy to fuck off. It’s a pretty standard Bud Light spot. C+.
sjbooher: Guess Michael Vick wasn’t invited to that party. Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!! C.
sjbooher: America loves dogs. And this was the first Doritos commercial so I didn’t want to lose my mind over them, yet. B-.
jtherkal: These Dorito’s ads were all made as contest entries, and I believe one winner got up to $650,000. I don’t know what the runners up got, but either way, I can’t get behind this. First, it’s no longer about Joe Average making an ad, these are higher production quality. A kid with a Flip doesn’t really have a shot, as much as they’d like you to believe it. Also, I hate seeing Super Bowl commercials before the Super Bowl. These were posted online and publicized. C.
sjbooher: I absolutely love this ad. I start dancing and cheering for those dogs every time I see it. Get the beer guys, get the beer! Eat it Clydesdales! What a perfect song, and perfect visuals to go with the song. Now, if only the beer didn’t suck… A+
jtherkal: Mostly, I love that you love this. I didn’t think there was anything all that spectacular about it and probably wouldn’t have even thought to rate it. When I see it, I find myself thinking that it must have been wild getting all those dogs to run around like that. Dog party! All dalmations are invited. Tell your friends.
Plus, you make a good point about it being the perfect song. B.
Update: sjbooher: This is ad is so good that I now rewind on DVR during commercial skipping to watch it. Sony should send Miller Lite a check, as well, as I was inspired to download Thin Lizzy’s “Jailbreak”, which led to a rockfest, which all resulted in the purchase of Guitar Hero III for PS3!
