This sex-crazed media not only applies to commercials, but movies and TV shows too. The most recent example, The new Transformers movie has really nothing to offer women who grew up before the early 90’s.

The new Transformers are nothing like the originals, so we can’t really enjoy that, the plot is dry, and there is no “hot” actor, only actresses that can’t act but that men consider hot. I think the most successful ads, movies, and TV shows are able to make it appealing for both genders, and all different age-groups and races.

The Super Bowl is notorious for it’s advertising. I looked at so many videos last week, I was seeing squares at the end of the day. I confess, I did watch a few more then once.
Advertisers use what they believe is the best method to gain our interest of the product or service they are selling. It is pretty interesting when they come up with a new strategy, as well as refreshing.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts

I really wonder how many people really care what the ad is selling. I remember the Pepsi one (I think it was Pepsi) where some chick was washing a car. I don’t know if it sold more product or just gave the company name recognition and a reputation for provocative ads. Seems like on Super Bowl Sunday each advertiser tries to outdo the next and the ones that always see to stand out are filled with scantily clad girls.

The videos took forever and as J.D. said so many were redundant.

Thanks so much for stopping in and sharing your thoughts.

Always a pleasure.
