]]> <![CDATA[Do We Really Want Better Ads?]]> Can we get the spicy meatball commercials back? Surely now, post-"Sopranas," post-"Wiseguys," post every breath Scorcesi has ever taken, the Italian-American AntiDefamation League has reconciled itself to the possibility that some Italian Americans eat meatballs and have accents. Those were among the best commericials ever made. And they were mini-dramas too.

Blur this.

]]> <![CDATA[Do We Really Want Better Ads?]]> I don't see why ads have to be longer to be better, any more than I ever understood why Hype Williams thought I wanted to watch three minutes of movie before, in the middle of, and at the end of every music video he directed. To wit, this is Mrs. Moff's and my favorite commercial right now:
