Did You Get A Visit From The DUI Bunny?

I don't know if you have ever visted Radaronline, but it is a online magazine, giving you pop and politics updates and articles. Let's just say there is a lot of celebrity gossip/ bashing. Their agency Walrus NYC  has created some pretty funny ads for Radar. Basically they sum up any stereotype of why celebrities make news... for example: DUIs.

The JCPenney Breakfast Club.

I have a serious problem with the new JCPenney commercial. It is a back to school commercial with teens that are acting out scenes from The Breakfast Club. Ummmm, that movie came out in 1985. Does the agency who made this commercial know who they are targeting? These kids in the commercial weren't born for another 5 years after The Breakfast Club. I guess I am missing the point. But, every time I see this ad, I always think, "Do they really think the demo they are targeting will understand this commercial?" Who knows. It is a great commercial, if you were a child of the 80's.

Free Brain Freeze... I Mean Slurpee.

Yes, it is 7/11... and what does that mean? Free Slurpee Day! Stop by any 7-Eleven and get yourself a free 7.11 oz Slurpee.... which isn't that big, but hey, it's free!!!

Just do it! And get pomegranate flavor. It is bomb.

Tennis Rackets And Green Thumbs.

Looks like the grass is greener at Wimbeldon this year. Artists Heather Ackroyd and Dan Harvey created these pieces of art using, well, grass. They took photographs of, Tara Moore who competed in the tournament, Eddie Seaward, a 15 year veteran groundsman at Wimbledon, and Coach Lizzie May is part of the Wimbledon Junior Tennis Initiative and began their three week creation.

"Back in the studio the artists develop the photos in a very similar way to printing in a darkroom. Large panels are seeded with grass and the images are projected on to them as negatives. The areas that get more light allow the grass to produce more chlorophyll and darken. It took about a week for projecting the image for 12 hours a day to complete the Wimbledon work."

Pretty amazing, huh? I plan to do them same and have a potrait of myself on my apartment balcony. My only problem being that I kill any plant I touch. marktd

So Who's On Your Hit List?

If you don't have Showtime there is a great show you are missing, Dexter. Actually the PG version is shown on CBS, but it does not do the series justice. What is also so great about Dexter, is the amazing viral campaign created to promote season 2. None other than the UK's Ralph has done so.

Want to be the Bay Harbor Butcher? Well now you can, and you can put your friends on your hit list. Just check out The Dexter Hit List. AdFreak

I Like Star Wars, So Kill Me.

How many 25 year old ladies enjoy some popcorn and a night of Star Wars? Not many. But I am one of them. No, I do not have a unibrow and I am not one of these people!

So how delightfully happy am I to know that Spike TV is going to be playing Star Wars?  Well, pretty happy. I have to say, I love those Ewoks, especially The Ewok Adventure which would not have been created if it weren't for Star Wars!

Spike TV has created some humourous ads to promote Star Wars on their network. Below is my favorite. This is why you never want to have Darth Vader as a golf partner. At least don't bet against him on any holes.

Adopt A Polar Bear, Without The Mauling.

If you haven't heard, Polar Bears are on the endangered list.  National Grid hired Mullen and created a humorous commercial encouraging parents and children to virtually adopt a Polar Bear on their website.  Think of a Tamagatchi,  except you adopt a cute Polar Bear and answer questions about the environment.  Each question you answer right allows you to play, feed, tickle, etc, your bear.

I know what you are thinking, "Polar Bears are terrifying animals that have been known to stalk their prey for over 20 miles and maul them."  Yes, this is true. But, coming from a Polar Bear lover (similar to a horse girl... rather than Horse painting, drawings, stuffed animals in my room, I had Polar Bears. Yes, I was a wierd child) these animals need our help. Yes, they can rip your face off, but they are also cute. Just watch their ad and adopt a virtual polar bear, it will melt your cold heart.
