Raunchy Sprite Commercial Banned in Germany.

[Daquan13]

Does this soda commercial look like something of a sexual nature to you?

no private parts are shown, but the gestures make it look very raunchy and dirty. You be the judge.

The German gov't felt that it was very distasteful and disrespectful.

Somebody made this 'on spec' for the publicity, I would imagine. That being said, it's very funny!

Funny, but not something that you'd let the kids watch, I don't think.

Perhaps it would be best shown late at night when the kids are asleep if it were to be shown at all.

[Alonzo-ny]

Of course its not real. Its one of those viral videos I'm sure.

I'm surprised that Coca-Cola is even allowing this viral video commercial to be shown anywhere. Or do they know about it at all?

[stache]

Yes I think they do.

It's viral but they spelled "Sprite" correctly. So the Coca Cola Company might yell and scream in pretended offense (if they didn't indeed fund it). They're getting lots of PR for their product and maybe getting it for free (or cheap).

It'll be intersting to see if sales get a rise.

They're about to explode! ;)

^ LOL.

There's certainly nothing "dirty" about it :rolleyes:. But definitely sexy and a fitting analogy. The promo for The Ugly Truth is funny, too.

Sexy is sometimes described as dirty, such as with porno mags, video and other stuff.
