Anyone else see the Bud Light SCOM instrumental commercial?

The new XXX movie has a scene where a girl talks about how cool was to see the GNR reunion at Coachella.

Cool to hear some of Paradise acapella, but what a weird use of the song in that trailer. Didn't fit whatsoever.

WAY late..but it sorta does, if you know the RE movie story.

Racoon City, and Umbrella Corp, are her home....and, yes, it's no longer a paradise city.  But it sorta was, until all hell broke loose, and, even in its' current state (an interesting juxtaposition with the lyrics about grass being green and girls being pretty...considering it's current inhabitants)....it might be HER idea of paradise.

It's a good commercial, and I like the instrumentation they used. Reminds me a LOT of the Taken by Trees version of the song:

I know they aren't, but I would love that mix on the soundtrack. So good.

No surprising choice of song for the new Jumanji movie.

Tonight, Guns N Roses was a question on Jeopardy.....

"In 1996, Axl Rose sent a fax to MTV claiming THIS guitarist had left the band, and that no new music had been made since 1994."

"WHO IS SLASH?"

 

Other bands referenced in the same category were Ozzy Osbourne, Iron Maiden, Van Halen, and AC/DC.

"WHO IS SLASH?"

Not sure how well us Europeans know the show but I happen to know it

Okay that went right over my head.  Is that "sarcastically" funny because Mr. Newhart and Axl are not really friends?  Or did Conan only think Bob was being sarcastically funny because Conan is known for not being a fan of Axl's??

It's funny because of the unlikeliness of them knowing each other at all.


Btw, is Conan not a fan of Axl's?

I don't understand why it would be unlikely them knowing each other?  Both are well known for their varied and eclectic group of friends and acquaintances.

Conan takes potshots at Axl every chance he gets.  Has for years.  No idea what his issue is with Axl.

They don't strike me as hanging in the same friend circle.

The deadpan delivery of the line was also what made it funny.

So this happens often then? I can't remember he having any sort of "crusade" against Axl. He makes fun of most things, I wouldn't worry about that if I were Axl.

I do remember something in 2002 during the tour where Axl made a joke about Conan on stage after Conan apparently had said something.

Dont know if Conan isnt fan of Axl, i know he is more fan of Slash

Ive been watching Conan since around 2009 and yes he has made some Axl jokes but not constantly, maybe one every two years or so.

I dont know who started their ''feud'' Conan is known for making jokes about celebrities so i wouldnt think its super personal.

https://youtu.be/zzmuzMdIpy4?t=1m44s Its a low shot.
Slash has been many times a guest on his show.

Yeah, late night talk show hosts make a living making fun of hundreds of celebrities, and the hosts don't even write the monologue.  Axl has actually been rarely mentioned by Conan compared to many other celebrities.  Check back and see how many Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, Michael Jackson, and Paris Hilton jokes have been made if you wanna see joke frequency!
