I'd like to track down the actors or ad agency responsible for the "Suzanne Researched It!" commercial, and make them famous.

Maybe we could get an apology for their bit part in this debacle.

March on soldiers.

Like said before. WE can do this!

Get a blog set up for the sequel to this commercial. All talent can offer their services from production to script writing to lighting, makeup etc.

We can work on an ad-hoc basis to get the groundwork laid for filming this in HD.

Who's with me?
Who wants to start the blog?
Who wants to write the script?
Whose forreclosed house can we use to film in?

Who knows how to find these two actors (who should of course get Emmys for their roles - This will go down in history like Lang's depression era photography).

Let's use this thread to get started. Pick your name and we'll agree to a blog name, etc.

Your Film Producer Guy needs you now!

Our real estate bubble in Bend Oregon has definitely burst. It does look like we will hit bottom in the Spring of 2009.

"Did you see the size of that garage?"
Forget the size buddy, for your sake, I hope it's heated, cause you're gonna be sleeping in it real soon!

He can put his HumVee in that garage. Along with the John Deere riding mower and the pool-cleaining equipment. These items will go with the house when the bank takes it back.

Also, people should save their love for people, and the world. How people can love an inanimate object is beyond me.

A woman cries to Dr. Laura about pushing her husband to buy a house they couldn't afford. She's lucky he only broke the cell phone.

@film producer guy -

I'm afraid there's many, many movies that could/will come out of this, now the story is much bigger than one commercial. Don't get me wrong, I like dark humor commercials, but this is almost, well no, it is TOO dark, what is happening with peoples lives etc.

But, count me in if you get it rolling, I'll keep an eye out, its a good idea.

So here's the setup. Both work so they have to pay for child care ($$$ 1000-3000 for two kids). New house (overpriced). Two new vehicles at $35k a pop. And dollars to donuts she does all the spending in the home and has maxed out the credit card, over her husbands objections.

Two years on:

They're divorced. She got have of what was left. He's stuck with TWO child support payments and living in the dumpster. Happens to guys all across America every single f@cking day.

Wonderful....

That actor has a special talent for looking gravely concerned.

You could almost conclude that in real life he'd been through a divorce/forclosure before he ever shot the commercial.

"This listing is special"
"We can lie on the mortgage app"

Why should the actors apologize? They played as the sponsor asked them to and got their pay. They are as innocent as an actor playing a fraudster in a movie. That said, I find the idea of a follow-up with the same actors intriguing.

I love this commercial, especially the modified version with the Oompa Loompa girl.

Sometimes, my fiance' gets a little spend happy and sends me one of those little gift-hint emails. I let her know my feelings by sending her the Suzanne link with something like "Oompa Loompa" in the title.

JIM, Keep dreaming about Bend, OR its way, way overpriced and a great place to live twenty years ago.

Oh, I don't know. Boston Legal has a couple of episodes about OCD Jerry who has to have an unlit cigarette in his mouth in order to grow cojones and do his lawyering job. He falls in love with another OCD client who has an electronics fetish and she betrays him with a clock radio.

It is much easier and more economical to tuck in the little clock radio at bed time than to grab the pillow and blankie to sleep on the beloved granite counter in the kitchen.

The moral of the story to me is that you can use a fake prop to grow cojones (BMW) or you can fantasize about inanimate objects (granite). But, before you commit make sure that you can afford the love of your life.

Am I the only one that notices how neurotic and labile the wife is? She's probably frigid in bed and uses it to her advantage to extort the poor overfed guy.

If she were real, she might have attempted suicide already.
