How often do you see anyone dying in an ad? This Indonesian commercial for the Neril Aminexil to prevent hair loss is funny, but the line is very cheezy. However it made me laugh. I give them one thumb up for comedy. Via Copyranter

Lindt Lindor Truffles probably spent a fortune getting Roger Federer in this commercial, but forgot to pay someone to clean his pits or run across the street to buy him some deodorant. Via : The Denver Egotist

Delicious Words

I’m seeing a “words are powerful” trend here. Burger King is using typography to promote its restaurants in Germany. The words you see in the graphics translate in English as, “Yummy crunchy juicy fresh crisp crunchy sharp pleasure lick the seasoning well licked finger licking taste explosion.” It is a new way to promote a [...]
The ad that would make Steve Jobs cry

This is one of the funniest ads I have seen. The ad was posted on YouTube a week ago, but it got pulled after just a couple thousand views. Some suspect that Apple had something to do with that, since the ad makes fun of the iPad in a very subtle way. I find the ad [...]

I saw this ad years ago before YouTube existed, and found it again this week. Of course it had to be a condom ad. Those are the best. I love the cheating wives, the milkman, the music, the sheep and the dirty teeth.

This $20 million Chanel advert released in 2004 is the most expensive commercial ever produced. It kind of looks like a very cheezy re-make of Moulin Rouge, and with Kidman as the star. It would have been better if the ad wasn’t so long, but I really enjoyed the cinematography. Curious to see the second [...]

This is probably the least controversial advert that IKEA has, but definitely the cutest. All I can think about now is on getting a whole bunch of cats to run around my recently purchased IKEA items. IKEA should have used this opportunity to promote litter boxes and other pet supplies. You can recreate the fun [...]
