Commercial Battle - Little Caesar's vs. Cheetos





Hopefully you guys like this one, because I see it becoming a new piece. The concept is simple. We pick two commercials, post them both, and leave it up to you to decide which is better.

Commenting on your selection would be ideal, but here at Three If By Strike, we pride ourselves on just getting the wheels turning, as one loyal reader, the one and only Bill, has credited us for.

For my money, gotta go with Cheetos on this one.  The weird semi-British accent of Chester Cheetah gives it the edge.  Along with that awesome dance the first guy is doing.  The Little Caesar's commercial earned a nod because of its hilarious timing.  From the time the guy starts lifting his shirt to the time its back on, only four seconds have elapsed.  Love it.

Both of these commercials are being compared not only by themselves, but in a line of commercials.  I'm sure you have all seen the, "Fish! Woo! Five Dollar Pizza! Woo!" commercial, right?  And if you haven't seen the Cheetos "Fort" commercial, then because of my obvious bias towards Cheetos, you can watch it right here.

Living the dream.

What's Your Favorite Cheetos Commercial?



I, like many of you, used to think that Chester Cheetah was a creepshow.  Probably because of the older commercials that featured him playing chess in a laundromat or controlling pigeons with a handful of Cheetos.

But in the most recent round of commercials, Chester has redeemed himself.  I don't know if its the accent, or situations, but these has changed how I feel about him for the better.
