ConnectileDysfunction.jpg

From what I hear, most of the Super Bowl commercials this year were quite lame. Some enjoyed Blockbuster's hamster and cat trying to use a real mouse to navigate on their computer, but otherwise--meh. . . I happened to catch this one for Sprint's high-speed network, called "Connectile Dysfunction." In the style of pharmaceutical ads for Viagra and such, it shows a man looking sad because he can't "take care of business." But in this case "business" is not a euphemism for anything. You can view this ad and others on ifilm.com.

And be sure to check out mobile expert Sascha Segan's reviews of Sprint's EV-DO Rev A network and Sprint's high-speed cards:

I saw this one, thought it was HILARIOUS. :D

But the commercials weren't all lame! There was this Garmin commercial that literally took the cake for me:

Which, after a little digging, turned up this longer 2 and a half minute music video of kaiju-fighting-heavy-metal goodness from the same shoot:

Now THAT'S effective marketing. :D

Psst - by the way, after a little digging, I turned up this longer 2 and a half minute music video of kaiju-fighting-heavy-metal goodness from the same shoot:
