New Microsoft Commercials Sink To New Lows

/ Comments (4)

Gawker recently featured a few of the new ads for Microsoft’s Internet Explorer 8, and they are as tacky as they come. Clearly an attempt to go viral, they use sophomoric humor and awful scripting to get the message across (whatever that is). Poor old Dean Cain used to be Superman, now he’s in supershit commercials.

And before anyone asks, no, these are not done by CP&B. We did a little digging and found out they come from an Indianapolis agency called Bradley And Montgomery; the same agency responsible for last year’s Mojave spots. The F.O.M.S. is bad, but the first spot with the projectile vomiting is terrible. Oh, and these new spots were directed by Bobcat “I was in the Police Academy Movies as the guy who screamed every sad line” Goldthwait. So yes, we think they suck.

The first one is really really bad but the second one is kind of funny.

yeah I agree the first one is crap but I thought the man in the monitor was pretty funny.

It’s getting even worse: http://bit.ly/10zok4
