Haven't watched the Eastwood spot, but I have it open on another tab and will check it out. I liked the Fiat ad with the hottie. I was biting my lip while she was saying whatever she was saying. I thought most were pretty blah though. What did the GE ad lie about? I'm curious.
They said, "At GE we build turbines that power the world. They go into power plants which take some form of energy, harness it, and turn into more efficient electricity."
That is false because when energy changes forms such, as kinetic to electric, some of that energy is invariably lost as heat. This does not make the energy more efficient at all, since you are losing some of that energy.

If GE's statement is "more efficient electricity" then if the old turbine loses "X" to heat and new GE turbine loses "Y" to heat and Y<X, would their statement not then be true?
I think it's funny how Bud Light is trying to fool people into thinking they have a new beer (Bud Light Platinum) when it's really their old Bud Ice. *puke*

Perhaps it's similar, but it's certainly not the same. For one thing, BL Platinum has a higher alcohol content.
From what I can tell, 707 is the DOLLAR STORE compared to deans_cards. For what that guy charges, if I ever bought anything from him I would expect it to be delivered to me in a frickin' limo. ~WalterSobchak

5.5%/6.0%... doesn't matter. For the kind of people who drink Bud Light, it's probably not a good idea.

Reminds me of Reagan's "It's Morning in America" circa 1984:
Morning in America
Here's the Eastwood spot:
It's Halftime America
It is nice to see Detroit making a comeback.

<< <i>None of them really stood out. I did like the clint Eastwood spot. I will be getting one of those new NSX's though, those are sweet. >>
That was a sweet looking car. I thought there were way to many movie / tv show ads. I remember one of the Coke ones being decent.

Least favorite was the GE claim that they make or help make or whatever Budweiser. A blatant display of going halvsies on a commercial.
