Geico Caveman Commercials...

[galactiboy]

I love 'em! I don't know what it is, I don't even have their insurance, but those commercials always have me rolling! I'd love to make a custom 'sophisticated" Caveman figure.

And for your enjoyment:
Caveman one

More Caveman

My favorite one

The newest one (w/rockin' music)

Caveman therapy

Why do I always think of Val Kilmer when I watch those?

 

[galactiboy]

I think you may have answered your own question

 

[hairlesswookiee]

lol.. that val kilmer comparison is too funny. i like these commercials as well... the best part why is because im taking antrhopology this semester and right now we are covering **** Genus section of the book right now. and the teacher has made a couple of jokes referring to the commercials and movie depictions of cavemen and how innacurate they are.

I like the little Gecko too. "Pie and chips? Who doesn't want free pie and chips? I mean it's pie...and it's chips."

 

[Bannister]

It doesn't matter how many times I see that cave man commercial, but I always find it funny the look he gives after he says he doesn't have much of an appetite. It never gets old.

 

[galactiboy]

I absolutely love that look... whenever I say "I don't have much of an appetite, thank you" and make that face my fiance cracks up! There's something so stoic... yet idiotic looking about his expression. Priceless!

On a side note, we've actually decided to go as Geico Cavepeople this year for Halloween. It just seemed the right thing to do.

Found something interesting for the Caveman fans: cavemanscrib.com/

Pretty funny interactive site... no idea if its actually affiliated with Geico.

I knew I was officially "old" and not the target of advertising when commercials like these made not the slightest bit of sense to me. It seems as if half the commercials on TV are made for creatures other than myself and could be in a foreign language selling a product I have never used or even seen.

I saw that awhile ago gb, it is cool. The cavemen crack me up, love their subtlety. Go to Geico.com, they have some merchandise and it is moderately priced and adding stuff here and there.

 

[Seth Gecko]

I actually hate these just had to chime in and say that.

 

[galactiboy]

And so it begins... Cavemen this Fall on ABC

Kinda looks like ass, but I'll check it out for sure

 

[darthviper107]

I've already heard reviews saying it sucks.

 

[galactiboy]

Yeah, it does look fairly weak. I was hoping some of the commercial actors would be brought over. Sadly that does not appear to be the case.

 

[Agent0028]

I'm hoping its entertaining, but I do have a hard time seeing how they can pull it off. The comercials are great, but they only last a few seconds, doing a 30 minute show every week is likely to be tough. Wonder if the Gecko will have a cameo.

 

[Anzik]

The guys in the commercials are funnier and better actors.

I say 4 episodes before its canceled.

 

[Agent0028]

We should start a pool about how long it lasts.

 

[galactiboy]

It'll be lucky to make the full season... unless it just kicks some serious ass. But I have a feeling that they are really going to halfass milking the established conflicts from the commercials and not really add anything interesting regarding the characters.

 

[Deadly Dagger]

I can't believe they didn't use the commercial actors...BIG mistake...it's easy to see the difference....I give it 3 episodes....FLOP!

 

[galactiboy]

So I missed the premiere of the show last week, but did catch an episode last night. It was actually pretty funny. Not great, but better than the horrid "Back to You" show... so thats something.

Also, one of the commerical cavemen is on the show, and he is great. The others are pretty good. So, I'll keep watching at least until it gets the axe... which probably isn't too far off
