    Coca Cola's Superbowl commercial

    The second I saw it, I told my girl..."this is going to cause a lot of controversy". In case you missed it:

    I can see how a message of inclusion and diversity would be very controversial.

    I don't remember seeing this during the game but seeing it now I don't really see anything wrong with it. We really are a melting pot of many different cultures and have been so for a longggg time. What was it that jumped off the page for you Muck?

    I didn't think there was anything wrong with the commercial. I just knew that a bunch of pissed off Americans were going to raise hell after hearing "America The Beautiful" in other languages and showing a gay couple.

    There are no Farsi speakers in Israel. Or do you think Farsi and Arabic are the same language?

    So you care enough about the issue to start a thread, I write a one sentence reply, and I get a "calm down nerd"?

    Literally the only people who could find this ad "controversial" are bigot assholes.

    Coke needs to immediately fire their ad agency and hire the people who created this-



    Pyro effects and sweet guitar riffs are never controversial.

    Was that just a local commercial? Amazing production value if so.

    Coke will be ok though, if one or two of their ads don't work, the other $3 billion worth per year will make up for it. Yes that is really how much Coke spends on marketing every year.

    That is a great commercial considering that it was locally done, but I'm confused a bit. He says that now he defends the innocent. What the hell does that mean? Does he only take on the people who he knows did nothing wrong or is he setting up a run for office as a DA?

    Now he only takes the innocent/injured. He is making reference to the fact that when he was a criminal defense lawyer he was defending the guilty/scum. I asked the wife of of a criminal defense lawyer what percentage of her husbands clients were guilty? She said "All of them."

    Literally, that's the point of the OP. There are bigoted assholes in the world that would find it controversial especially in America where everything seems to be controversial.

    I thought you were smarter than that.

    When most immigrants come to this country they dont speak English. If they just got here, it should be a seen as a great thing that they want to sing this in their own language. It means they want to be part of this country.

    I have a problem with immigrants that come and dont even try to learn English and expect society to conform to them. If you want to be an American, immigrants should make a real effort to learn English. We shouldnt let the government make it easier on them by making forms in a million languages.

    Anyone here into Opera?

    Ever think of translating that shit to English?

    Now lets all go to France and sing their national anthem in English, see how that goes.

    I guess that only in America can we be concerned with the marketing efforts of sugar water who's literal name is "Cocaine Cola".

    This is one of my biggest issues too. If you move to America you should learn English as a necessity to survive. Now that goes the same if an American moves to Spain or wherever they should learn Spanish in this case.

    It's too easy to migrate to America and taking an English course to at least know the basics should be required for a long term stay.

    I'd be very confident at least one punter working for Mossad speaks Farsi.

    This was my favorite Coca-Cola Superbowl commercial, from 2009. It won an Emmy.
