It makes me sort of sad to watch these kids.  Go outside!  Buy some violent video games!  Youth group only prepares you to get eaten alive when you get out of the bubble!!  Sigh.

Awesome PSAs

On February 23, 2009, in Commercials, Tragically lame, Video, by Wiley

The huffington post went through the trouble of finding the best PSAs around

and I went through the trouble of taking the good ones and posting them here

I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again.  DO NOT LET BRITS INTO YOUR HOUSE!

You, me, we’ll all on cocaine

This one is from New Zealand, where they have a child swinging problem

Maybe people mistake the children for hobbits?

if you’re reading this blog, chances are you are a fan of Starship Troopers.

Yes, this is real

Listen to Pee Wee

This is definitely the most effective one

do not want mumps

Forever Leather!

How is it that I’m just learning about Forever Leather and their magnificent commercials?  It seems to be in New York, but has a distinct Jersey aftertaste.  This guy is a genius.

McDonalds does it again!

On February 15, 2009, in Commercials, by Steve

McDonald’s has had some really lousy ad campaigns of late as we’ve previously covered here, here, here, and here. Coming off of their stunning success with InspirAsian.com, they’ve decided to take on the lucrative African-American market (sorry about all that heart disease).  

I was going to say some snarky things about the commercial, but there’s something more interesting going on here.  I’m completely shocked, but this piece of crap commercial has prompted some strong debate in its youtube comments around the long term socio-political ramifications of slavery.  Check out the full thread here.  Leave it to McDonald’s to dredge up one of the darkest periods of American history while they try to sling some burgers.  Good work, guys.

P.S. -- Nuggnuts.

Pi pi pi pi pi Pizza-la

On January 18, 2009, in Commercials, Video, by Steve

We must all immediately travel to Japan and consume some Pizza-la on the strength of these ads.  Why can’t we get Japanese ad agencies to export their genius here.  Microsoft and McDonald’s could surely benefit from, well, let’s just call it a “fresh perspective”.
