Vanilla Ice Ice Baby

Sorry for the week without updates, I’ve had a very crazy week. Here is a nice video to make up for it.

Anything with Vanilla Ice in it, is okay with me.

Robocop Likes Fried Chicken

Japan aren’t the only ones in the region to have strange ads. Here is a great one from Korea in the 80s featuring everyone’s favourite robot cop – Robocop!

He’s a lot shinier than I remember.

Cadbury’s Wonderbra Gorilla

Cadbury have made some great ads (I don’t like their latest) like the crazy eyebrows. Which of course opens them up to spoofs, like this for Wonderbra in the style of Cadbury’s Gorilla.

Now this version is also good. Which is better?

Which ad is better?

Grinders coffee in Australia did a little promotion where they made the Mona Lisa out of different shades of coffee. Check out these cool pictures.

We Are ODST

I find it amazing how some video games have better trailers than actual movies. This is one of those times. The live action trailer for Halo 3: ODST is pretty damn awesome.

Of course it tells you nothing about game play, but who cares?

Someone is Watching Too Much TV

Sometimes is easy to figure out those people who spend a little bit too much time watching television and becoming “experts” in their favourite genre. This is one of those people.

NPH is a Real Fake Doctor on TV

Adam — Sun, 13 Sep 2009 18:21:07 +0000

As a former make believe doctor there’s one product Neil Patrick Harris can recommend against the torment of excessive wetness and body odor…

Another good ad from Old Spice.

If You Wanted To Sleep With Him…

Adam — Tue, 18 Aug 2009 18:28:51 +0000

This is a lovely ad all about the wondrous joy of man love… Okay, maybe not. It’s a funny/disturbing ad for Virgin Atlantic that will first make you cringe before giving you a wry little smile.

Stupid Security Commercial

Adam — Sun, 16 Aug 2009 18:17:22 +0000

When it comes to a credit card you want great security. This ad starts out alright, then and the end says, “forget all our security, it’s easy to bypass”.

Idiots!

Suck it Up!

Surprising ending on this ad from a low fat tuna company in Asia.
