Favorite Hawks Commercial

[tvltre]

Just wanted to see what you guys like in regards to the commercial the Hawks have had in promoting this great sport.



I like the new NHL 11 Keith commercial...but my all time favorite has to be this one.

half the guys are gone...but was very funny.

Yeah that was a good one. I kinda miss those guys, it was right before the glory, but I still think those guys were essential in building the team as it stands today. Almost like they got the ball rolling.

 

[puckjim]

Those were great.



I HATE the Jeremy Piven one.

I, however, love the Jeremy Piven one... but I gotta go with Mr. TV Vulture on this one, the soda commercial is probably my favorite.

 

[Tater]

I love the Tony O Binnies commercial.

It's so cheesy but ya gotta love the guy. Cracks me up every time.

 

[hawksfanmd]

I like the ones that Wiz did..I thought those were funny

 

[esbrechtel]

I think the Binny's one is going to get old really quick...



I really like CSN's new Hawks commercials. The ice crew one is great and so is the vending machine one.

Pat Kane "one day with the Cup isn't enough"

I always thought the Harris Bank ones were funny, I love the look on Seabrooks face during that whole commercial, so funny.

 

[genefoley]

Never understood why they used "soda" instead of "pop" in the commercial in OP.



More of a fan of the style of the new One Goal commercials. With Toews saying "but that was last season" and Kane saying "once is not enough". Also love,in those commercials, the tranquil piano in the background playing "Here Come the Hawks"--pretty sick.

I seriously don't understand the new Toews commercial. Why call to attention the fact that this year cannot possibly top last year?

How about this one:

I like the one..when the hawk flys from the sky and lands on top of the mountain and just take a break and flys away......................................oooh this is about the blackhawks sorry.

Slightly off topic, but is anyone disappointed in the new "updated" hawks intro video? I thought it was way drawn out and just kinda crappy. The originals weren't the greatest but they seem to have gotten worse.

Agreed - I didn't think the Espo / Binny commercials were funny at all. I love the vending machine one with the ice crew.

I'm with you - the intro video doesn't inspire me either - but I didn't think last year's was all that great either - very similar to this year. The one 2 years ago that started out with an enemy team breaking a window of a police car and vandalizing a Hawks sign on a building was very well done and a fav of mine - plus that one showed them skating to Wrigley for the Winter Classic and that was cool. Last 2 seasons - crappy.

Yes. The whole 15 minutes before the team takes the ice needs a complete overhaul. Having previously seen the whole ice video used in LA, I was excited to see it used on opening night. I'm pretty disappointed they've gone back to the laser drawing out the guy skating towards the UC. It's pathetic compared to the video on the ice. They could and should do so much better.

It's amazing how similar the video is to the bulls intro, yet about so much longer with all these unneeded shots thrown in. How many times do we need to see the tribune building anymore....

I still liked how this team played together back then. Havlat with the kids as well as Bobby Lang taking care of business.

This team had a lot of attitude like last years team.



Funny how only half those guys are there. Wiz, Ruutu, Lang, and Havlat did a fine job here.

Same here, it appears they only rented that equipment for opening night and we are stuck with the 1987 Def Lepperd laser show.



Versus has a cool commercial involving the Hawks during last night's broadcast.
