Lebron James is back. After much bad press this summer over his decision to go to the Miami Heat in pursuit of championship rings, Nike and LeBron have returned with another ‘controversial’ ad. Personally I love it! We have learned recently that LeBron has fuelled his motivation from racist text messages and twitter messages and this commercial helps put that into perspective. What are your thoughts? Is this too soon?
Update: Hit the jump to see Cleveland’s response to this ad. It’s great!
The 2010 FIFA World Cup is here and it promises to be a great one! With the advent of broadcasting technology, every single game will be broadcast online, on tv and over the cellular networks (at least here in Canada). With all that television air time comes commercials. Usually the World Cup brings some new and innovative ads. Unless its a Rogers Communications ad, in which case we will see the same shitty commercial over and over from now until Christmas (“…off the plane and on the train, we’re on our way to the FIFA World Cup..”). God they suck! Anyways, I have compiled a list of 10 of my favorite World Cup commercials so far. Which one is your favorite? Please feel free to leave a comment and let us know your favorite.
Great concept from the Netherlands on how to handle the FIFA World Cup fan’s attire. Every soccer fan knows the standard celebrator shirt flip, but this time around you can feature your favorite player as well (as long as you’re a Dutch fan). Fantastic idea! I want one.
Durex Condoms has released a great iPhone app that replicates what it’s like to care for a new born child. By downloading the app a user can impregnate another iphone thus causing the user to have to take care of his baby. The app wil alert and annoy you constantly, just like a new born does. The only way to block this, or prevent it is by getting a link to the condom app through the QR Code on the condom box.
Well, another Superbowl has come and gone and I must say I am happy with the outcome. New Orleans played amazing all season long and Drew Brees deserved his. Congrats Saints! But what every one else is talking about today are the Superbowl commercials. I must say that this year’s weren’t as funny as normal but there were a few gems. As always the E*Trade babies rocked, I love that campaign. Makes me laugh every time. Read on for my full top 5.
