For whatever reason Jung's artwork remained as the US theatrical one-sheet and the rest is history. This Hildebrandt poster however was used as a theatrical poster in the U.K. and parts of Europe)

    Whoever was directing magazine commercials back in 77 deserved an award

      0:00--For some strange reason, the music in the Time commercial reminds me of that used to accompany the old silent movies.

    As far as I am concerned, The Ford Mustang did not exist between 1974-1978. That was just a bigger Pinto. Young Erin Gray, before Buck Rogers Fame. Fun fact, she was 2nd Runner up to play Captain Janeway on Star Trek Voyager. When they FIRED Geneviève Bujold after the first day of shooting, the next 2 names on the list was Kate Mulgrew and Erin Gray. If Kate Mulgrew was not available it would have to gone to Erin Gray. Makes me wonder how the show would have been with her as Captain.

    4:01 - This Aim commercial is like a bad drama. "He's cavity prone!!" And something tells me this is the last time this lady invites "Blanche" into her house if she's going to be this insane over toothpaste.

    "zipping around like a turtle with bad knees" what in the hell does that mean

      Possibly a jab at the turtle-shaped AMC Pacer, a competitor at the time.

    I remember using Roll-a-matic mops even in the mid 90s. They lasted forever. Is that design still around?

    LOL at the Mustang II ad. Not the car I'd choose for "breaking out of the cage." Surprised it didn't fall apart when it hit the plastic bars.
    Also, for someone who is such a rebel, she seems to be dressed a lot like a grandmother.

    Looks like the song they used for Realemon was the same for Candy Land.

    Bloomingdales-"how to be a hit in the bedroom"..? Wear a fire helmet lol
    WABC News-i actually lived through the NYC blackout,it was truly a nightmare

    The Irish travel ad was creepy enough but for creepiness this time around it goes to those Realemon bears!!!!! Give me the jibblies.

    Jack Soo who may look oriental but he doesn't act it. What does that even mean? How do "oriental" (asian) people act?

    • @80sCommercialVault
      @80sCommercialVault  6 лет назад +8

      The concept of an Asian character on TV without any sort of accent in 1977 was progressive and combated societal norms, expectations and stereotypes. Here's an example of the sort of character that was common on TV only a few years prior: ruclips.net/video/1BD80DyQodA/видео.html

      14:04--I believe he passed away during the original run of "Barney Miller," and they actually ran a special episode that paid tribute to him. And from what I've seen here, it looks like I'm not the only person who thinks that electronic music is similar to that used in the "In the News" segments that ran on CBS during Saturday morning cartoons back then.

      Yep. Looked it up and this was during her modeling career, about a year before she started acting.
