I have been seeing a lot of these ‘dos equis’ commercials lately. The premise is that the spokesman is ‘the most interesting man in the world’ and when he drinks beer, he drinks dos equis.
These commercials bother me to no end. I don’t find the guy particularly interesting at all. The announcer spouts a bunch of cliches which seem like a rip-off of Anchorman combined with Chuck Norris-isms. Oooooh…he plays jai lai. Big whoop.
I will say one thing about these commercials, they finally made me learn the name of the beer. “Dos Equis”. I always thought it was ‘double x’. In my opinion, they should have stuck with that.
Also, I will be following their slogan and even if I am extremely parched with a bottle of XX in front of me, I will ‘stay thirsty’. What kind of slogan is that for a beer? Could you imagine if McDonalds went with ‘stay hungry’? I think they have a better chance of convincing me their spokesman is the most interesting man in the world. A red-headed clown constantly around children whose never been arrested? THAT is interesting.
