Thread Name: BS: Favourite TV Ad
Subject: RE: BS: Favourite TV Ad
Riginslinger, that ad reminds me of o ne that was in the old movie Tunnel Vision. The movie was a spoof of tv, with sitcoms, sports specials, news reports, etc. There were several great commercial satires, but the one the GE ad reminds me of started with scenes of pure mountain lakes, a clear tumbling stream, an eagle hovering, children playing in a pasture etc, while the voiceover says "in our world today, pollution threatens to overwhelm the beauty of our native land. Rivers, lakes and streams are threatened with chemical contamination. But after years of research, investment, and the combined efforts of our entire work force, we at Consanto were finally able to come up with this commercial."
