    Re: Stop making commercials

    Whaaat? Those hyperdunk commercials were awesome, as was the GH:World Tour ad with Jeter.


    This ain't a good one though, no doubt. As an aside...you've been on this site a long time, EC...why would you make a Kobe thread? Cats HATE this dude. How long do you give it before this looks like every other thread with him or Lebron mentioned?

      I just didn't laugh. Like I was seriously stonefaced during those ads.. and this one too. Everyone, Kobe lovers/haters all think the commercials have been HILARIOUS.. I feel like I'm living in some alternate universe.

          Ehh I think this is different. But I don't care anyway LOL, at this point the commentary on Bryant isn't really surprising.

          I just wanted to ask why people think his commercials are funny, because they're really not.

              Well this commercial had funny stuff about it, but for me it didn't all come together. I like the "not a demonstration" thing. That could have worked in another bit, or in this one with some more editing.

              The Jackass commercial and the other hyperdunk thing is self explanatory, man. Whenever other people spoof your commercials, you have SOMEthing.

              You didn't think it was wild when he slid out of the hallway during the GH:WT commercial? I did not see that coming when I heard the first couple of notes to that song. He committed, too. He was cutting a fool in that one.

                Actually IMO I think these commercials aren't really that "bootleg".. they're just poorly written and pander to the main mainstream audience. They simply aren't funny. I don't think it's because of the amount of money spent.

                  If nothing else, the gold medal game should have shown them the opportunity they have. You make a good point. The backlash for pushing Bean would be minimal, if at all. No one was chirping about Colorado when they were all nibbling on those new gold necklaces they got this summer.

                        Sorry DT! I swear on other message boards even the confessed haters are over this.

                        And Dre, viral or not, my point was the man really isn't funny. No matter how much money they throw down, it's not going to change him. I'm actually not even sure if all of these commercials were supposed to make him seem "funny", but whatever angle they're trying to work, it's not going anywhere.

                          I haven't found any of his new commercials to be funny(of course the die hard Mamba nut huggers will find any of his commercials funny). Dude just isn't a funny type of guy imo.

                          But honestly, Nike can't come up with something better? hell theres TONS of commercial like videos on Youtube from fans that are WAY better than anything Nike has come up with for Mamba.
