James Bond trailer for Quantum of Solace
by: Sarah

Who doesn’t love Bond?  Seeing a new Bond movie coming out is like any hero movie, you can’t wait to see it even if it is going to suck.  Now, I don’t think that Quantum of Solace is going to suck, in fact from this trailer I got a little excited.  So let’s hope that on November 7th when the movie comes out, that it totally rocks.

Dewmocracy Tug-of-War
by: Sarah

Which Dew do you do?  Personally I’m all for the original flavor, in diet of course, but I suppose these new flavors might be worth a shot.  The vote is down to Supernova, Voltage and Revolution so get your vote on, you have until July 31st!

Doogey Houser does Old Spice
by: Sarah

This commercial is way better than the Bruce Campbell Old Spice, and not because it’s funny, because it’s Doogie Houser!  The bit about the “former make believe doctor” is absolutely hilarious, adding the “That’s why I can recommend it, I used to be a doctor for pretend.”  Anyway, love it, watch it.

Nike Football (Soccer) Commercial for Euro2008
by: DS

This is a great commercial. This is the shorter version, you can see the longer version below from the YouTube Nike Soccer site.

The commercial is directed by Guy Ritchie and the music is Eagles of Death Metal’s “Don’t Speak”.

Here is the longer version:

JC Penney Speed Dressing commercial
by: Sarah

Well, I thought this spot was pretty hilarious, but what is it teaching our youth about sex?  “Today’s the day to get away with it” is a tad out of line on the abstinence front, but makes the commercial way more hilarious.  Yeah, that’s right, I’m torn between “this commercial is hilarious” and “it’s way out of line.”  But let’s just say that it isn’t what I expected from a J.C. Penney commercial.

Geico’s worst caveman commercial
by: Sarah

This is possibly the worst Geico Caveman commercial, it has absolutely no direction or purpose.  I really would like to see this commercial gone.  The only reason why I posted it was to see if anyone agreed or disagreed with me, so whaddya think?

AT&T’s you’re a dillweed commercial
by: Sarah

AT&T always has pretty decent commercials, I especially like the father searching for his absent daughter at make-out point.  I love the irony of him “singing” Motorhead’s Ace of Spades while he misses the calls from his buddy trying to offer him Motorhead tickets, what a dillweed.  Not much else to say about this one really, so enjoy the spot I’m sure there will be others.

Reverse Graffiti Project by Paul “Moose” Curtis
by: Sarah

Doug Pray made a great video for the Paul Curtis Reverse Graffiti Project.  Green Works, the plant based cleaners, is who this graffiti advertising is promoting.  Paul Curtis is one interesting graffiti artist, he is armed with a power washer, not a can of spray paint and his canvas is a dirty surface that he sets out to make clean.  Just check out the process, it’s all pretty interesting in a green sort of way.

The Great Office War - Runawaybox
by: Sarah

This has been massive on the internet over the past couple of days.  Runawaybox is a couple of YouTubers who get together and do hilarious short videos.  Some you may have seen are Happy Mother’s Day MILFs, I Guess You’ll Do and “Ooh Girl!” - An Honest R&B Song.

Check out their YouTube portal for more of their shorts.  Also, I’m not saying you have to check this out, but it’s a good idea.  Here are more office shorts at Man in the Box.

Washington Lottery - Birds
by: DS

This is one of the best commercials this year.

The Washington Lottery commercials are really good and this one does not under deliver.

The concept and the execution are just perfect. “Who’s world would you change?”
