So… Wong Kar Wai. He made made a big commercial with Phillips, for their weird Aurea thing… Called “There’s Only One Sun”, it’s a little bit out there. Overall, I’d say this isn’t remotely as compelling as Scorsese’s champagne commercial but it is lush and pretty. Which is, I guess, all Aurea wants to be. [...]

Check out this stop motion video that’s ultimately a commercial but is completely awesome along the way. Guy draws all the frames of the video on himself - it’s really clever and really well done. (via onthegroundlookingup) Next time, though, he should carve it into his body Sagmeister style. I guess that might take a [...]

Check out this Guiness commercial - it’s pretty awesome. A rube goldberg like setup starts with dominoes but includes everything an Argentinian village has to offer including flaming bales of hay, upright cars and paint cans.

Well, I’m off to the south lands. My flight is at some godawful hour so no breakfast for me. But I’ll leave you with this video to console you in my absence. I know this is how you will feel while I’m away…

And don’t deny that it’s a good commercial, either.

God I love this ad. Actually, not quite this ad - this is taken from one of those stickers I’ve seen around that are in a little quote - the ones I really love are the huge ones that are on the side of buses. I haven’t seen one in a bit, or I’d have [...]

Thanks to howard for pointing this out. This was at the top of drudgereport’s homepage when I looked. While, it’s a little … sensational, I guess that’s how Drudge is. ABC’s upfront was today and I guess that must make it official - they’re really going through with this! Cavemen is going to be on [...]
