When all Christmas advertisements seem like expensive movies
#1
Along come one that cost 150.00 and that was for permission to use the song. Advertisers and filmakers should be ashamed.

It's ridiculous. Like that little ginger fuck even knows what is going on. Way to exploit your kid so a bunch of lonely old fat ladies can feel good for a second.

I am not watching that bullshit. I hate it!
When I commuted for 2 hours a day I would stop listening to the radio this time of year-not because of the music but because of the advertisements. Especially the ones that use children.

$150 is pretty cheap for production. I don't know anything about the distribution/air time costs for this ad, which are typically the most expensive parts of a television advertising campaign (especially on the national level).

Anyway, I think it's a nice ad and the kid is a cutie.  

But, I don't get your point.  Why should businesses that spend more on holiday advertisements be ashamed of themselves in a capitalist society? It doesn't bother me if they spend more to make more or whatever.  It's private businessess' money/profit to spend as they see fit.

What I think is shameful is the huge influence of corporate money on politics, and false advertisements that actually mislead and hurt consumers, and shit like that.

I just hate to see money wasted. Now if I was a Socialist/Democrat spending everyone else's money would not be a problem. At least not until it ran out.  Smiley_emoticons_biggrin

Can you imagine the money that goes into producing the Superbowl commercials?  Then the cost to put them on the air?  CBS charged 5 Mil for a 30 second time slot during the last one.

Okay, I watched it. It was cute. Didn't make me weepy!!!
$150 seems reasonable since there were no graphics or special effects.

I was thinking we were going to see an old man at the end of it, that would have made me weepy!
