Forty Rod SASS 3935 Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 Commercials aren't what they use to be. Most have always been stupid but this.....? I haven't seen a commercial on TV in six years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pat Riot, SASS #13748 Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 I don’t know. I liked it. Loved the flying Toyota and the gloved hand catching the ball in mid air. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J-BAR #18287 Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 Thank you. Inspired advertising. It actually makes me interested in buying a Toyota. So much more interesting and entertaining than 99% of the crap presented to us. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FROM THE ARTICLE: This commercial, as it turns out, is pappy-slapping incredible. There is, supposedly, a southern expression about something being "so good it makes you slap your mama". I've never heard anyone, anywhere I've lived, use that expression, but people insist that it's a real thing. Maybe they are trying to be chivalrous, so instead of slapping your mama they had you slapping your father. Or it could just be a total flipping moron that wrote the article. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Capt. R. Hugh Kidnme Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 I'm with Rye. I loved it . All the big plays were included the bunt in heels, climbing the outfield fence, a home plate sliding tag, runner rounding the bases on a hit to the outfield. Even the catcher taking one bouncing back off the plate. Exciting, memorable, fun,,,,,,,,what advertising should be. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were probably other good scenes I forgot too. So many times, with US advert agency commercials, I can't even figure out what they were selling or promoting. This is what a winner looks like. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badger Mountain Charlie SASS #43172 Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 I liked it. Much more enjoyable than the swill we get served here. I suspect cleverness and creative ideas are dead, all murdered by the rush to catch the almighty dollar. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"DON'T PUSH THE RED BUTTON !" ........ Toyota G's are a line of upgrades that Toyota market to buyers of their cars sold in Japan. Think of them as Factory installed sport packages to enhance performance, handling, or looks. For example a G's Prius would come with slammed suspension, low profile tires, and an aggressive looking grill. Inside the start button would look like the one in the video clip. https://www.autoweek.com/car-life/a1866991/japan-toyota-gs-make-prius-sporty-encourage-drifting-and-road-rash/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
