OK here is the ad that Mancrunch.com wanted to show during the Superbowl. They said they have the money and that the content did not go outside the Superbowl rules. Watch the commercial and tell us what you think

Does this commercial offend you? I have to say I agree with one one of the posters on youtube wrote:

The best part of this is the brilliant PR stunt to pretend to submit this as a Super Bowl spot to get the free publicity when it inevitably got rejected (BRILLIANT).
Don't get me wrong, I'm all for equality, alt lifestyles, gay marriage, etc.

But.

This spot sucks. dumb. The PR dept were let down by the creative dept here. big time.

This reminds me of the stunt that Peta pulled last year: 2009 banned Superbowl Ad (peta.org)

Dumb commercial but genius plan. Make a super cheap commercial you know will get rejected. After it gets rejected sit back and bask in the glory of free advertising that is online media. I mean, come on. I could make a better commercial.

I aree its a great idea. If the networks were smart they would make them pay upfront and if they submit a bad commercial they are given time to redue it but no refund. They would still make out even if they had to pay it with all the extra advertising they get.

It is a really cheesy commercial.

I'll pass on watching two dudes make out durring commercial breaks, now two girls would be nice. I agree poorly made video. Not that I'm looking at the guys, lets get this straight I'm a ladies man, but did they not go looking for some better looking dudes? Hey I'm no model but I'm better looking then them.

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh so they should have picked you to do the video. Would you rather play the guy sitting and being kissed or the one standing and kissing?
