Nor is Mr. T.

What a great marketing campaign. I mean, "He lives vicariously through himself"? "He once had an awkward moment, just to see what it felt like"? Fucking brilliant. Somebody needs to buy the marketing guys over at Dos Equis a six pack...er, scratch that.

Bottom line is I love this guy. And I would mos def go see this guys flick.

I fucking hate those commercials. They're stupid as shit. I see what they're trying to do, but... nah. It's not working. If others disagree, fine, whatever.

I will allow that it's better than that godawful beer spot where women walk into some chick's closet (which is about the size of my apt.) and start screaming, and then they show the guy showing his friends his beer refrigerator or whatever, and they start yelling and screaming in joy.

They did a review of these commercials over at Slate.com as well and I think they're absolutely fantastic. The longer ones end with the most back-handed pitch ever.
The guy is shilling beer, and yet he says "I don't always drink beer..."
The guy is shilling Dos Equis, and yet he says "...but when I do, I PREFER Dos Equis."

And seriously, the guy's just a badass.

What can I say, I'm a sucker for good advertising. And I find these advertisements hilarious. Someone pass me a Dos Equis.

Totally a Chuck Norris/Jack Bauer rip off. Funny, but not as funny if you've read the orginial ones.

World of Warcraft (shut up, so I play. A Lot) did something like this on their shaman forum. "The Most Interesting Shammy"... and I gotta say my favorite line is "stay bursty, my friends".

The Most Interesting Man In The World, On Pick-Up Lines:

"There's a time and a place for them. The time is never. You can figure out the place on your own (ST,MF)."

Indeed!

(I do always drink beer, but I prefer Tecate)

what is wrong with all of you? those commercials are the fucking worst. i'm seriously baffled that so many people like them. i don't think i've ever disagreed so strongly with the Pajiba readership.

Yeah I used to really like the radio commercials. And while I think the TV ad is pretty brilliant, I always saw "TMIMITW" (my little name for him) as more Ricardo Montalbon/Fernando Lamas type. Upon seeing the actor they picked my first thought was "So...'The Most Interesting Man In The World' is a Hispanic James Bond in retirement age but still kicking ass and getting laid?"

"Okay..."

Anyone else seeing that too? Anyone??

(PS - Men, I hear if he shakes your wife hand while she's at the peak of her ovulation, nine months later she will have a painless birth of a perfect child. You'd better watch this guy!)

Hold on a second.

I can burp-speak in multiple languages.

In high school I convinced twin girls that I too had a twin, and I switched between my twin personas when the mood fit.

I had sex with a stripper on a Southwest flight from San Diego to Vegas, then had sex with her older, stripper sister the next day.

I have worked as a construction worker, commercial fisherman, newspaper writer and attorney.

During college I never wore shoes in class.

I once let three men punch me in the face to see if I could feel pain.

I was a pornographer at the age of 12.

I've won three consecutive disco dance contests.

My poo smells like rosemary.

I was kidnapped by a hillbilly in college and after out-drinking him with shots of whiskey I escaped when he passed out.

I do not sweat.

I've made love to four different women on four different continents.

I can light my own farts.

Doesn't that make me the most interesting man in the world?

Dad?

Yes?

There used to be a show on the HD channel Mojo called the "MIA: The Most Interesting Assistant" that was a game show where the contestants competed to be the most interesting man's assistant. It was a total commercial for XX just by the fact when they won a round, they would receive a beer. The reason I bring it up is the fact that it had the same kind of humor as the commercials and was a pretty solid game show. The australian host was kind of hot and had the dry humor of the commercials when she would talk about the most interesting man. Anyone else catch it?

never even tsted XX but the commercials are awesome even the people that said its not wasted their time to post that its not.
