I love the commercials from Coca-Cola before the movies. Here's the last one I saw:
I think the ad has a nice message against bullying and knuckleheadedness. I also think that the first act of goodness from the bully-looking character is an act of acceptance of the gays.
It looks like the tough guy is going to bash our gay, but they actually end up drinking a coke together. Super cute.
I know the guy in a pink t-shirt and baby blue sweater could be straight, but, come on...
I like the ad-and I recognized the song, "Give A Little Love". It's from the 1976 movie musical "Bugsy Malone". (I saw it about a jillion times when I was a kid. We'd just recently gotten cable.)

You have a point, Myackie! At least the ads play before the show starts. So, if the show starts at 7pm, the ads stop before that, and we see trailers at 7pm...I love those too. Movie theaters in certain cities even have trailers before the movie time (so that the movie itself would start at 7pm...)

I loathe these movie commercials.
If anything, they should have made the price of admission to a movie cheaper (because the theater is getting revenue from the ads), but instead, movies cost more than ever.
