Perhaps I Spoke Too Soon

Jump to Comments

OK. I stand by my assertion that the Jack Palance Skin Bracer commercial is the greatest of all time. Admittedly, the reasons for that are largely sentimental. But while it may be the best, THIS commercial is also totally, completely, utterly unstoppable. Trust me, you’ve never seen anything like it. Please enjoy responsibly.

  • I heard that Bronson poured so much Man Dom on himself during this spot that, for a few minutes at least, he could kick Chuck Norris’s ass.

  • That was something, all right.

    And, Craig, Charles Bronson could kick Chuck Norris’s ass anyway. He doesn’t even need the Man Dom for that.

    If Charles Bronson poured a bottle of Chanel No. 5 on his head, it would turn into Tabasco sauce and then into red ants. And those ants would go to Chuck Norris’s house at like 4:30 in the morning, wake him up and kick his ass.

    No offense to Chuck Norris, a certified badass, but come on; we’re talking about Charles Bronson here.

  • I figured I should start 2009 with a reminder that all the world loves a lover.

    This year, can we talk repeatedly about how many people accepted nearly infathomable suggestions in order to make this commerical a reality?

    “You know, it needs a doorman, a jolly sort, kind of a poor man’s Mickey Rooney.”

    “TOTALLY.”

    “Chuck, could you just really feel the Mandom a bit more this time? Like, when you put it on, put it ON. Pretend your chest is thirsty, and Mandom is the juice. Really clean yourself with it.”

    “Ok.”

    “Dude, let’s incorporate some footage of Chuck doing his fringe meets firearms revenge kind of thing. He could be shooting at the camera. It’ll be like he’s shooting the viewers with Mandom!”

    “Duy.”
