    You're right, but they were crushed first, so put away the shovel. Still, pretty stupid...There were about 5million Atari 2600s sold at the time, so they make 10million copies of ET, expecting hype to push 5million more.

    Also, that ad rubs me the wrong way. Why is the kid in a warehouse? Why does he roll the ball? Why the hell do they keep doing that thing where they show the family smiling and pointing at the game?!

    The commercial was paralleling a scene from the E.T. movie, when Elliott first discovers the alien. Game commercials used to always have families smiling and pointing.

    I know they do, and it annoys me immensely. The only console even remotely (no pun intended) like that is the Wii, and that's just when they first see it and go "So you actually just swing the racket to make him move? Wow...". Otherwise they just look on in a sort of bored stupor.

    I don’t know guys. This commercial seems to capture what most of my gaming sessions are like.

    Gah, that family forgot to take their meds. The old guy playing Defender was totally tweakin'.

    I hate it when people say Mario like that voice over guy does.

    “Something’s gumming up the plumbing, poor Luigi’s in a bind!” Since when does Luigi where red with overalls? I always thought it was a joke when they said “mary-o” like in that one Ghostbusters movie…

    It's a colloquialism. A lot of East-coasters (and a few too many West-coasters) call me that, and I've just learned to live with it.

    I used to pronounce Mario like that, but then I realized it wasn't the right way, so I fixed it.

    Anyone that watched The Super Mario Bros. Super Show knows the right way whenever they sing the rap. Which is presumably all the time. I mean, I do.

    A series of Indonesian facial cream ads for Smooth-E turn out to be surprisingly watchable:

    (THIS IS DEFINTELY NSFW!!!!! Chris is a vulgar little man.)

    oh my god. I love MC Chris. (No, his name is not MC Pee Pants, silly punk kids.) He totally serves kingdom hearts.

    EDIT: (This version's kinda cool too, it's edited to footage from the games.)

    He sounds kind of like Cartman.
  • edited May 2007
    Yeah and he's not really funny. He tries too hard I think.
  • edited May 2007
    I like MC Pee Pants. He was great in the Aqua Teen movie.
