Finally, I can get a wallpaper with that sleeveless, arm sock wearing chick on my computer...yikes BMO doesn't get it, but it sure beats those shite Houston area plugs during last night's game!

"Mambo seafood donates 100 dollars for every Dynamo goal to Dynamo charities."

Wow. A whole hundred dollars! I'm sure the local homeless shelter will be tickled pink. (/sarcasm)

I think we already know what people are going to say. just refer back to the thread that previously discussed this topic. those who hate the commercial will hate the site. Those who like the commercial may give it a thumbs up.

There's a really tacky add for the 'BMO 300' on their building on King in the financial district. It plays the commercials over and over.

Razor

i'm right across from that building - i see it everyday.

at least they are trying to promote TFC.

Parkdale
06-09-2008, 02:52 PM
promote their own investment in TFC.

I've mentioned it to a few people already. Take a look at the "Drummer Boy" picture, and notice that he is beating the drum with a weapon that would likely get me ejected and banned for life for just attempting to bring it into the stadium.

AKA fake Deniz.

That campaign makes us look like a bunch of douchebags to the uninformed.

I personally hate it and those fucking commercials. If you're going to rip off the unique individual supporter personalities that we bring, then get specifically them in the damn commercials and not actors. It's not rocket science, we bring it EVERY FUCKING GAME to tape and choose from.

Tape us at the game, very simple.

I don't know - maybe he's from New Orleans? :cool:

They guy in grey beside him must be NEE cause he didn't unroll his streamer.

I'm indifferent to the commercial. I could really care less.

But as i watched it yesterday i wondered, wtf did they do with the hundreds of red flags they used after they were done filming? Did they just chuck'em? Why not hand those fuckers out at the gate?

alexintoronto
06-09-2008, 05:03 PM
Maybe they only used 10 and then used duplicates of the footage to make it look like hundreds? I doubt they hired that many actors...

I wouldn't want to participate in a staged commercial filming, but pics taken while we're supporting our team in full voice would be better than anything they could ever stage.
That said, I'd still rather not.

it's funny that they promote the stuff they are shutting down...

They love ads/images of smoke....BANNED
They have an ad called "streamer" with a guy not using proper streamer throwing form .... About to be BANNED

Anyone that cuts the sleaves off their jerseys should be BANNED.

I think that BMO's intention was to depict TFC fans as "warriors" or "gladiators" of the mls fan base based on our reputation for being the most supportive, ravenous fans in the league. The exagerated imagery is not meant to be taken literally, which is what seems to be offending people. The ad is meant to be a compliment to the TFC faithful...

i must say its kind of funny, but at the same time just stupid looking. They could of made it look like great passionate fans with out going over the top.

Come on, were dealing with TV here, and its a commercial, not a reality show.

Why didnt they get Erin Brokovich to play Erin Brokovich? Why dont they use real doctors and patients on ER?

I love that so much effort and art direction has gone into portraying something that I'm a part of, and making it larger than life.

We created the reality behind that commercial, and it sends shivers down my spine when I see it. Not because it's a great commercial, but because I realise that what we created last year made such an impression, and was so succesful, that they wanted to capture that and give it the Hollywood treatment.

Exactly, pictures of real fans would not have had the feel they wanted to give it. It was supposed to be about us as "warriors", not us as real life. Commercials are meant to be over the top, because frankly, a 30 second shot of real life (in most cases) is not going to sell anything.

The best thing about the site is that it spawned this thread which in turn brought up "Mambo Seafood" from the Houston game and gave me a laugh ;)

I'm gonna start calling things mambonifico for no apparent reason now.
