This week has been full of random news, like our first look at a toy for the Rise of the Beasts film released in the Cyberverse line when that cartoon is being replaced by a new one. Well, this one might take the cake for randomness. An Australian phone ap for betting called TAB touch has released an ad where they have Gene Simmons in his full Demon garb singing Stan Bush's The Touch but with modified lyrics about betting on horses. If you are wondering how this would be related to Transformers, well, we have that iconic clip below for you as well.
Here is the commercial:

Well that was definitely weird. I guess it's the marketing strategy of 'we want product attention, and don't care if it's negative'.
Don't get butthurt when you get called out for expressing closed/small/narrow minded opinions. Educate yourself and form a better opinion.
Yyyeeeeeeeeep

What's the negative part?
The fact that it's ANOTHER betting app that's going to plague Australian TV screens.
This is why we're a nation of internet pirates ...

I think it varies state-by-state, but American TV's getting just as saturated with online betting ads. The tragic part is, you never know which of your fav celebrities will be sucked into one next.Burn wrote:william-james88 wrote:Kyleor wrote:Well that was definitely weird.

One of Mike Nelson's greatest riffs was: "These people are really the backbone of your casino-based economy" (Giant Spider Invasion)
Then Patton Oswalt becomes a regular in those Sportsbook ads with Caesar and Cleopatra, oh the savage irony.
And now Gene Simmons apparently really is in Satan's service. Hmmm, maybe this cover will make that Knights of Unicron set go up in value...

I don't think any of this holds a candle to Larry David selling out to Crypto.
