Eli Manning Is An Advertising Jugerrnaut

Thursday, February 14, 2008

I had been thinking that these latest Gatorade ads were a bit over the top. There are a couple out there at the moment but one where the field is following Jeter is kinda creepy. Well Gatorade fixed all that with their newest ad featuring Mr. Unstoppable.....



I'm a bit sick of that song, but still a pretty awesome spot.

That music would make eating a sandwich look dramatic. It is getting overused, but I agree its a cool spot

They should have used a song by Randy Newman.

For future reference, that's "O Fortuna" from Carl Orff's Carmina Burana. I guess it does get a little too much play on pop classical radio stations.

It's a piece, not a song

Could be worse. I used to LIKE "Tick Tick Boom", before it was the theme song to everything on ESPN.

(Okay, I still kinda like Tick Tick Boom.)

Do you think you could pull back on your use of the word "awesome?" You're being paid to write for Christ's sake, maybe you could opt for a descriptor that is not the most overused word for those under 40?
