That's not how you say Nissan.

Meanwhile, I rather like this little ditty for a new shopping centre in London

I cannot tolerate that "New Haribo Supermix" advert with the singing family. Except for the dad, who is a legend. And another thing: Why do they add a second jingle to the end of it?

God almighty, its just awful isn't it. It doesn't scan properly, and its just weird.

And then the Haribo jingle in a different key at the end?

Yuck.

The bear doesn't even do anything, it just slides on screen in the manner of a Powerpoint presentation animation. Tacky.

I wouldn't say their voices are in any sort of key anyway - it pains my ears to hear that girl go "Looooooove theeeemm sooooooooft" even if it's coming from downstairs!

I cannot seem to escape this advert at the moment. Except the badly dubbed British version. Which just makes it even worse.

I am sure that is based on one of the cheap dating webscripts out there - looks like a rubbish website.

Love the Winkelvoss twins Pistachio advert aimed at Zuckerberg.

Ehhh.... they're a bit charmless.

But its a clever wee idea.

And they're putting the emphasis on "that", when it should be "do".

Umm..


I'm not sure what to think. It *is* a cliché - and his reason for doing it seems unfathomable to me.

Except perhaps that his time in the States might have eroded that British sense of squirmy embarrassment for hawking male vanity products.

So remarkable is his appointment as a "you're worth it" shill, they've made an advert promoting the advert.
