So, filling out a really, really long survey that spent a lot of time talking about all the NBA games I don't watch got me the honor of previewing some WNBA playoff commercials.
#1) Um. Erin doesn't play for the Liberty any more. Umm, Detroit featured? Umm, Connecticut featured? At least you got Indy right.... Really lacking in action or energy.
#2) A step-by-step recreation of "The Shot." Hello, it's sooooo 1999 -- where's the "Where's the next great shot coming from" montage of Cappie, LJ, Charde, Becky, etc. etc?
#3) The still picture montage. Better than the "Expect Grape" adverts, but where the hell is the life action? The explosion of it at the end?
#4) "Expect Great: Parker. (Shouldn't that be retitled: "Expecting. Great.") Gack, I hate those commercials. No energy. No drive. No impact. You simply need better voice overs and better clips.
#5) Still with the still shots.... do you expect people to believe the voice over just 'cause?
#6) Gawd, the sappy, insincere "Have you seen her?" voice over makes me want to slap someone. And didn't anyone tell'em that Houston folded?
#7) Better. At least we had some names AND HIGHLIGHTS!!! Sheesh. What are they scared of.
Hope they read my "please be as detailed as you can" comments.
