Ok, what's up with the Crouching Tiger Mountain Dew ads? (1 Viewer)

Anyone else see this one? I've been bombarded with it over the last 6 hours.

It's a virtually perfect recreation of the first courtyard fight scene with two women fighting over a can of Mountain Dew ala "Crouching Tiger"

Hokey I believe is the term I was looking for.

It's superbowl 'ad season'. Most weird/good ads come out around this time. Too bad there's no more adcritic.com I would like to check that one out soon.

I like how at the end they put the little disclaimer stating they are not affiliated with any movie. Instead they just ride its coat tails.

Haven't these been running for the last few months?

Nope. I haven't seen it. Don't watch much network programming though...

I thought this was a fairly old commercial. I've seen it quite a few times. Nothing really wrong with it...it was fairly well done.

Yeah, this commercial has been on for quite some time. I thought it was a fairly well done parody. Definitely better than the lame "spaceship" Mountain Dew commercial that they were showing for a while in movie theaters.

This commercial has been out since Crouching Tiger was released on DVD. I find it about as silly looking as the movie, even though there is "supposedly" no relation between the two.

Well, I guess that shows you how much TV I watch.
I guess they broke it out again for Superbowl time.

Think about it, this commerical has been out for over a year! That's got to be some sort of record in the advertising world (short attention spanners).
