1. After watching the commercial, I think it is banned as it is very insulting for cocoa cola. This is because in the commercial, the boy bought two cans of cocoa cola just to step on it and buy a can of Pepsi. It is insulting because by stepping on something other than the floor or carpets, it means that you are more superior than that item which may represent a company or any other people. They can get sued for such matters as it is not respecting the thing.
ReplyDelete2. Commercials that are banned might be because the commercial is insulting other people, like the Pepsi commercial. It can also be because it is too violent. If it is too violent, children that watch might be influenced and might turnout violent, causing a lot at trouble.

1.I think the commercial was banned as the boy stepped on the two coca cola cans just to become higher just to buy pepsi,this is not only ruining the coca cola's company reputatiuon but also insulting it and it seems that the coca cola company despises the pepsi company and treating it like rubbish by leaving the coca cola there and also this shows that the boy is willing to do anything for the pepsi,and this also shows that pepsi is more superior than coca cola.

1.I think the commercial was banned because the boy would rather buy two cans of coke for him to step on to buy a can of pepsi.The commercial uses coke to advertise his own product which is pepsi and this means it is copyright.
ReplyDelete2.I think commercials are banned because they are copyrighted,insulting people,violence, obscene and they may corrupt the minds of people, espically the mind of childrenand they may infleunce others to do certain illegal stuffs.
1. i think that the commercial was banned because it was insulting the coca-cola company by letting the boy step on it's products to push the button to buy pepsi. and it is also an insult because the person spent money to buy the 2 coca-cola and pepsi but only brought the pepsi back to drink that says that the boy did not like the coca-cola and it spoils the coca-cola's company image.

ReplyDelete1)i think the commercial was banned because it was trying to say that pepsi is so much better than coca-cola as by stepping on the two cans of coca-cola, it was representing that the ccoca-cola is like junk where it was used to be stepped on and it is not true.As human beings, we step on floor, by stepping in something else, it means that we do not like that thing we are stepping on.The coca-cola company can sue the pepsi company as they are insulting the opposite company.
ReplyDelete2)I think that commercials are banned because they are insulting others, have violence sence, have anything got to do with sex, vulgaruties as all this will corrupt the minds of children because they are usually the ones who watch television as they do not need to work and have more time at home and there are usually lots of commercial on television after afew minutes of the show you are watching.

ReplyDelete1)i think that the commercial was banned because it was insulting the coca-cola company by letting the boy step on it's products to push the button to buy pepsi.it is not very polite to step's on products with hallmark as this may may let people think that the commercial is disrespecting the coca-cola company.treating them as junks as the boy stepped on them.
ReplyDelete2)commercials are banned sometimes because of violent acts or other factors.some commercial are insulting to others,illegal,may offend other people's opinions,etc,may be violent and cause disturbance to people,obscene and corrupt people's mind or may influence and lead people astray/think differently.

1. The commercial was banned as it insults the Coca Cola productions company. By showing that the boy stepped on the cans of Coca Cola to get the Pepsi instead, it is trying to show that Pepsi is better than Coca Cola. The commercial is offending Coca Cola as what the boy was doing was disrespectful. People might have much different opinions and preferences on Pepsi and Coca Cola. Thus, the commercial my not only offend the company but also the members of public.
ReplyDelete2. Commercials are banned as they may potray obscene or violent scenes. They may also be offending or disrespectful to a certain company, or they bring down the company's status/image. The commercials may go against others opinions, religions, or people may find it disturbing or unsightly. It may be a bad influence on young children as they are the ones who usually watch television. That is why certain commercials are banned.

The commercial is being banded because it is indirecly insulting the coca cola,by making the boy step on the cans of coca cola, treating it as junks, saying that it is not as good as pepsi. Therefore,it is offending the coca cola company.

1.The reason why the pepsi commercial is banned is because it insults another soft drink company.The boy was supposed to step on the coca cola bottle,and it treats the bottle like a piece of junk.
ReplyDelete2.Some other reasons why certain commercials may be banned are because they contain sexual or pornographic content,are not suitable for the public to watch.Some other possible reasons include violation of law,racism and attacks on other religions.They are very disrespectful.
1. I think the commercial was banned because it was insulting coca-cola.The boy was stepping on two cans of coca cola to get the one can of Pepsi.His behaviour is like he would rather have Pepsi even if it takes him two cans of coca cola to get it. This commercial is insulting coca cola by having the boy step on it. This is why this commercial was banned.
ReplyDelete2. The other reasons that cause commercials to be banned are the use of vulgarities, insulting other companies, products and also racism and violence.When coming up with a commercial, the people must think of how the commercial might influence the people watching it. By doing so, they can reduce the number of commercials being banned.

1. I think this commercial is being banned as it is insulting another company. In this commercial, it is shown as a boy stepping on to coke cans to get a pepsi drink. By having the boy stepping on the coke can, it appears that coke is not as good as pepsi. Hence, this commercial is being banned.
ReplyDelete2. Some of the other reasons that causes commercials to be banned are using vulgarities, insulting someone, and having some sences which are not healthy for our minds.

ReplyDelete1. I think the commercial is banned because it has insulted the other company.When the boy stepped on the coke cans it is said that pepsi stand higher than coke so coke is stepped down under the pepsi,and it is also saying that coke are not as good as pepsi.So that is why this commercial is banned.
ReplyDelete2. The other reasons maybe that the commercials got some things that could not be seen,or they had used violence or vulgarities in the commercial and there is also insulting the other comany or someone.That is why the commercials are banned.

1. i think that the commercial is banned because it has insulted the other company. they embarrassed the coke while recommended the pepsi.
ReplyDelete2. the other reason maybe it contains vulgarity or obscene thing or even insulting other people company.
1. I think the Pepsi commercial is banned as it offends and insults the Coca Cola Company. It indirectly shows how inferior Coca Cola was to Pepsi, and that Pepsi is so much better. In the commercial, the boy treats the Coca Cola like junk. This is rude, disrespectful and impolite. Thus the commercial was banned.
ReplyDelete2. Other reasons why commercials are banned can be due to the commercial portraying violent and sexual scenes which others may find disturbing and inappropriate. This scenes may corrupt a young children's mind and lead him/her astray. Also, other reasons can be because it insults others' cultures and religions, or there are too many vulgarities in it.

1. I think that the commercials are banned because the Pepsi company is trying to insult Coca Cola company. Through the actions of the little boy in commercials, we can see that the boy use the can of Coca Cola as a junk to be step on and this is quite disrespectful.
ReplyDelete2. The other reasons for commercials to get ban is because it doesn't agree with the basic terms and condition of releasing a commercial. Some examples are strong violence, insulting, sex scenes, top secret and classified.

1. This commercial is being banned because the Pepsi company has no respect for the Coca Cola company, not respecting them as a competing company showing that they were despicable in using such a method in ruining coca cola's reputation, by standing on 2 Coca to get 1 can of Pepsi. Thus, it shows that the Pepsi company was looking down on Coca Cola company, obviously implying that the Coca cola company is not capable to compete with Pepsi company, which means that the Coca Cola is something useless for a person to step on instead of a drink to quest one’s thirst; Pepsi is way better than them.
ReplyDelete2. In my opinion, I think commercials are being banned just because they contain abusive, sexual, insulting actions, can easily influence young children’s mind, which usually seem extremely hilarious to others.

1)I think the commercial was banned as it insults the Coca Cola productions company. When making commercials, the makers cannot use another product to make their commercials better. In an indirect way, the Pepsi company is saying that they are better than the Coca Cola company which is wrong and all advertistments should be fair.
ReplyDelete2)Other reasons that might cause commercials to be banned are the over exposure of sexual materials, indecent showings of another person's culture or the wrong method of showing another person's culture and things that might create conflict between two countries, religions, companies, etc.

1) After watching the Commercial , I think that the main reason why it was banned is because it has directly insulted the Coca-Cola Company . Having the two Coca-Cola cans stepped in order to reached for the Pepsi drink , the commercial is trying to show that Coca-Cola could not be compared to Pepsi and that it is way back behind Pepsi . It shows that there is an absence of respect to the Coca-Cola Company and I believe that it must be banned in order to return justice to the fans of Coca-Cola and the company itself .
ReplyDelete2) In my opinion , I think that some commercials are banned if it has copyrighted other companies , leads people , especially children astray such as involving vulgarities , sexual scenes and violence . Lastly , insulting in intolerant in advertisments . Regardless who the victim is , be it an object , item , people or company , respect is very important within people .

1) After watching the commercial, I think its banned because the Pepsi company was making use of the Coca Cola company to proof that they are better in a rude and insulting way. This commercial shows no respect to the Coca Cola company.Even though these two companies make coke, they should not really treat each other with jealousy, rudeness, and disrespect regarding on the number of consumers who drank their company's drink. Whatever it is, regardless of having more amount of people consuming one company's drink than the other, these two companies can still challenge each other but not having to insult each other or other people.
ReplyDelete2)Commercials that are banned might be because
-they have insulted somebody, or a company, like the banned Pepsi commercial. Viewers who see these type of commercials can learn a lot from them, such as having no respect to their opponents or rivals. Showing this commercial might not be a good idea, some people might think that it is unacceptable and refrain from the company who broadcasted it. OR
-they contain violence and show uncomfortable scenes.Viewers who watched this type of commercials, especially children, might get influenced and start learning bad things. Being exposed to these uncomfortable and violent scenes might change the way people behave in a bad way.

1) After watching the commercial, i think that it is banned because Pepsi is insulting Coca-cola that they are better than them and that they win them in the taste of drinks. It is also that they are selfish that they want to gain popularity and in the process of that, they hurt people that are working in the Coca-cola company. They are showing that people waste money to buy Coca-cola drinks that they should not waste, this may cause people not to buy the drinks anymore and that will cause Coca-cola to go bankrupt.
ReplyDelete2) I also think that this will cause children to get influenced to be like what the advertisement showed that they would be someone that go around being selfish, and start to insult others and cause them to be disliked by their friends. This may also cause children to ill-treat their friends, other even parents, their future will then be ruined, they themselves may not even be happy or even get depressed this will cause their schoolwork to be affected. Though we are from different company as others, we must respect them and not insult them though they may be our enemies at work, we cannot use violence, or other ways to insult them.

1. I think that the commercial is banned because it shows that the boy stepped on two cans of Coca-Cola just to buy that can of pepsi, meaning that pepsi wanted to gain popularity through insulting Coca-Cola, ruining Coca-Cola's reputation. Both are companies that wanted their drink to sell well through commercials and other forms of advertisments. However, they cannot involve something that ruins other companies' reputation.
ReplyDelete2. Commercials involving too much violence, insults,vulgarities and some perverted scene can be banned also.These may cause the audience to feel uncomfortable with the commercial and instead of increasing the popularity of the company's product, they are ruining their own reputation. Although they are competing with each other, they must also respect and be fair to each other.

1) The commercial was banned because the boy, who was too short to reach for the pepsi button, bought 2 coca-cola and stand on it in order to reach for the pepsi button. He stood on the 2 cans of coca cola, and is trying to say that pepsi is better then the coca cola so the boy would not care to do anything to have the can of pepsi like standing on the coca cola, treating as some rubbish for standing, and thus insulting caoca cola.
ReplyDelete2) Some innocent children, when watching this commercial mught learn from the boy inside, and get affected and have a mindset that next time they cant have a pepsi, they will stand on 2 cans of coca cola cans.
1. The commercial was banned because the boy shown in the commercial actually stood on two cans of coke to reach for the pepsi button. In this way, it actually insults the image of the coca-cola company.
ReplyDelete2. It is a sign of disrespect for them doing this. It spoils the image of the coca-cola company and insults them by saying that their drink is better than the other. They can make it a polite way of representing it but instead show it through a very insulting and mean way. It might also give an impression to the viewers that this is how bad the product of the certain company is that bad.

I think that the commerical was banned as the pepsi company is insulting the coke company indirectly through the commercial. The boy bought two coca cola and stand on them just to reach the pepsi button. so the commerical basically means that coca cola is rubbish while pepsi is the best.so it is no wonder that the commercial was banned.
ReplyDeletein my opinion,a commercial should be fair and should not use others to enhance their own image.

ReplyDeletei tink it was ban as it is directly insulting the coca-cola company although it was abit amusing.Buying two coke not for drinking bt buying a can of pepsi.It is not just insulting bt also teaching others to waste.And this being not enviromentally friendly.
ReplyDeleteIn my opinion,i think they should not use others to harm others reputation.

1)After watching the commercial , i think it was banned because the commercial was insulting the Coca-cola company by stepping on the cans. People usually step on something that is dirty or rubbish so in other words the commercial is showing that the coca-cola drink is rubbish .
ReplyDelete2)Maybe they are banned because they are insulting other things like the Pepsi . Or maybe they might contain some usage of vulgar words and might also be violent.

Basically the whole concept of this commerical was that the boy was trying to purchase a can of Pepsi from the vending machine. But he was too short to reach the Pepsi button, which was the most top button. So he actually purchase two cans of Coca-Cola, which the button was at the height he could reach, and he stood on both the cans just to press the Pepsi button.
ReplyDelete1. I had to say that this is actually telling the people who watch the commerical that Pepsi is more valuable than Coca-Cola by showing that we should rather spend more money buying other drinks just to step on, to make themself taller to reach the Pepsi button. Actually stepping the drink can is already very insulting, but that boy bought the Coca-Cola drink and didn't drink it, but actually left it at the vending machine when he leave. He took only the Pepsi.
2. This shows that with Pepsi, there is not a need for Coca-Cola anymore. So I think it is banned because it gives me a feeling that it had abused the Coca-Cola company and show to people that we would do something like that just to get a can of Pepsi. It also tells people that Pepsi was actually nicer than Coca-Cola in a sense that they would rather buy them, and used it for a height and not for a drink.
1) it is banned because it defames another product from another company which is against the law. for the advertisement to be using coke like this it makes coke seem like a footstool for the boy just to get himself pepsi.
ReplyDelete2)another reason why it is banned is because it makes coke look inferior to pepsi. this is against the law as it puts coke in a bad light infront of a lot of people who drink coke. in the advertisement, the boy left the coke there and only took the pepsi with him, portraying an image of coke being more worthless than pepsi.

I think this commerical is banned because it is insulting the coca cola company when they make a boy buy two cans of coca from the drink machine just to step on it with his dirty shoe to buy a can of pepsi. If this commerical is release to the public i think that it will cause many misunderstanding between the two company just because of a commerical.Furthermore,if a young child see this commerical,he might think that it is fun and might learn from the commerical.I think a good commerical should be creative and fun to watch that can make anyone laugh.If this is achieved then the commerical will definitely catch the attention of many people.

I think that this commercial was banned because they are making fun of the cocacola company as the boy is stepping on the two cans of coke to buy one pepsi. I think that people who love coke sees this commercial will start to make toruble with the pepsi company. Pepsi lovers would also create trouble with the coke company. The commercial also tells us that pepsi is more worthy then coke. A good commercial would attract people without defaming other company's products.
ReplyDeleteLoh Yee Kiat(30) 1-1
I think that the pepsi comercial was banned as it insulted the coca cola product the process of the comercial.I find it unacceptable as it is not only against the law.However,it is not morally correct to use and insult other people's effort to climb the success ladder.There are many other ideas that can be accepted and are good at the same time.Some of the other causes of are racial remarks,defamation of other products or gonverment,violence or inappropriate scenes.
