Hmmm.....that USMC commercial is pretty entertaining, but it gives me the creeps when the guy turns into a steely-eyed, emotionless Marine.

There were some commercials a few years ago that I despised. They featured celeberties, like Walter Cronkite, talking about hand gun related deaths. That's just what I want to see before a movie, anti-gun propaganda. As if the Anti-Drug crap isn't annoying enough.

Parca's right about the future of commercials. There's a car dealership that does has General Patton imitator on their radio ads.

Has anyone noticed music videos that rip-off movies, like rapper Jay-Z's video that steals from "The Usual Suspects"? And there's a Timbaland video that recreates scenes from "From Dusk Till Dawn". One could argue that their parodies, but they don't feel that way.
