Ad Awesomeness: Lindsey Lohan sues E-TRADE for “milkaholic” crack

March 9th, 2010  |  by Jeff  |  published in All Posts

Man, do I frickin’ love the real world.  You really can’t beat it when it comes to serving up the crazy.  Sure, you can have your little movies about blue people and classic book characters re-imagined, but I’ll take me a good serving of good old fashioned, real world crazy any day.
For instance, according to [...]

Dead Tree Media Goes To The Oscars!

March 8th, 2010  |  by Jeff  |  published in All Posts

I didn’t actually go to the Oscars, so if you’re looking for the dish on who was wearing what, you’re in the wrong place.  You’re probably thinking I’m going to review the ads that came on during the Oscars, but you would be wrong there as well, at least for now.  Outside of the fact [...]

Capri Sun is just getting effing spooky

March 5th, 2010  |  by Jeff  |  published in All Posts

I’m not part of the camp where I think we need to over protect kids; in fact, I think modern kids need to toughen the hell up before other countries figure out that we’ve raised a couple of generations of pussies and just invade our ass one day.  But, what is with [...]

Brit convicted for mock “No More Nails” Jesus ad, being a dick

March 4th, 2010  |  by Jeff  |  published in All Posts

You ever have that one friend of yours that doesn’t know not to tell a joke in front of the wrong person?  They’re the idiot that is blatantly racist, sexist, whatever right in front of your black girlfriend and then is honestly shocked when they get a drink thrown at their head?
Well that guy is [...]

OK, I know the Pedigree slow-mo dogs ad is cute, but BRAND DAMMIT!

March 3rd, 2010  |  by Jeff  |  published in All Posts

Look, I dig a great dog as much as the next guy and I know this ad with all the cute dogs in it is cute, but seriously, do I need to bring up what commercials are really for in the first place again?

Beautifully shot, great music, fantastic editing and I swear that bulldog just [...]

You have to admire Brazilian Bold for their, um, boldness

March 2nd, 2010  |  by Jeff  |  published in All Posts

If you’ve never checked out the site Oddly Specific, drop in and blow half a day looking through the postings, it’s a hoot.  Take this one for example…

Frankly, with my luck, I would end up with someone trying to tear all the hair off my junk rather than Miss Rio de Janeiro, so I think [...]

Gillette all about smelling like a man, and making guys uncomfortable in the steam room

March 1st, 2010  |  by Jeff  |  published in All Posts

Oh, lucky, lucky day… I love it when crappy commercials fall in my lap.
Oddly enough, this find was the result of looking at what is actually a pretty great response commercial from Gillette to Dove’s new “I’m a Man!” commercial from the Super Bowl.

Sure, it took them about a month, but I have to admit, [...]

Cottonelle spends a butt load (HA!) on a really dumb question

February 24th, 2010  |  by Jeff  |  published in All Posts

Not everybody that reads this blog is in the advertising business, so I want to start out with something that might blow your mind.  Really big companies, like Kimberly-Clark, who owns Cottonelle, spend a completely mind blowing amount of money on advertising… every, frickin’, year.
Seriously, you think you might have an idea of what their [...]

“I’ve never voted Tory before” ads in UK are ripe for abuse, fun (leftover from #SES London)

February 23rd, 2010  |  by Jeff  |  published in All Posts

I’m about four days back from my trip to London to speak at the SES conference and I swear I’m still a little screwed up.  With that town I’m never sure if it’s jet lag or a hangover…
Anyway, while I was in old London town, I remember seeing these ads on my way to and [...]

Remixed Tonight Show with Jay Leno promo sings a different tune

February 22nd, 2010  |  by Jeff  |  published in All Posts

The original music for this spot for The Tonight Show with Jay Leno was The Beatles’ “Get Back (To Where You Once Belonged)”. However, all it takes it a little change in music and suddenly, the spot is actually funny…

Watch it while you can… we can know that network doesn’t have a sense of humor, [...]
