Carlsberg: It's Time to Unbottle Yourself

Oh those clever Danes.  Carlsberg launched themselves into the app world by creating a social app that will unbottle all of us into doing crazy and whacky things that we wouldn't otherwise ever (probably) do.    But hey, there is a prize after all!  Join in on the fun, and complete the missions it sends to you and if you win, you get sent to Hong Kong for the ultimate party, courtesy of Carlsberg.  Why not give it a go at www.unbottleyourself.com

Subway: I'm your girlfriend nowww

This ad campaign from Subway is simply awesome.  The commercials get me EVERY time.  It's a nice break from seeing Jared constantly talking about him losing weight.  There are a few different commercials but the one I chose is titled Betrayal.    The one thing that makes these commercials hilarious is that the peoples voices are dubbed over by kids.  In the commercial you are about to see, you have a beautiful lady coming by the desk of  one of her co-workers and playfully telling the guy she will be his girlfriend.  Now, as any unsuspecting kid would do, he agrees.  With it being official, she goes and takes what's now hers, the sub.

Adidas is All In

Are you all in?  You should be.  Adidas' new commercial features stars from a variety of sports at their best, training hard to be where they want to be.  I love these types of commercials.  They get me really amped up and make me want to go put on some Adidas gear and go play some basketball.  It was probably their intention, and damn did they do a good job.  The song choice, the players, the intensity all came together really well.  I can't wait to see more of these types of commercials from Adidas.

Sun Drop: Show us how you drop it

Is this actually for real?  What a strange commercial.  Sun Drop is out with a commercial featuring a girl dropping like its hot...well not really.  Not entirely sure if Sun Drop is part of another company, but the Sun Drop girl drops it next to a guy driving by, people doing yoga on the beach, and then finally drops it on a boat.  If you check out their website, you can submit your own video "dropping it" and potentially get featured in their next commercial.  Ultimately it does look extremely fake, and looks like it's part of a larger social media push for someone else...but could be wrong...anyone know anything about it?

Jennifer Aniston’s Sex Tape

Talk about a social media explosion!  Jennifer Aniston, featured in this clever spot for Smart Water has done something quite special here.  Rather than copying an idea someone already did, they thought it would be a clever idea to take every idea that made a viral hit successful and create a spoof of all those ideas combined.  As you will soon see, you have the little kid who sings songs on YouTube (who was recently featured in David Guetta's video), the Cottonelle puppies, the skateboarding dog, the Evian dancing babies, the all so memorable double rainbow guy, the L'Oreal sexy hair turn, and last but not least the classic kick in the crotch.  Oh and I almost forgot, it's also Jennifer Aniston's sex tape...well not quite.  All these combined into one powerful video should ultimately create one all mighty viral video.  It certainly didn't take long either, the video went viral instantly.  The one thing that would have made it even more special was if they somehow played in a little Old Spice and had her singing sweet sha-la-la-las as Aniston swan dived into a pool of SmartWater.

The Black Mamba

Watch out now, The Black Mamba...aka. Kobe Bryant is the next super hero to come out from the NBA.  We have Superman...aka. Dwight Howard, and now we have The Black Mamba.  A star studded short movie featuring the likes of Bruce Willis and Kanye West, do their best to steal The Black Mamba's prized possession, his shoes.  Kobe does what he can to prevent this from happening through the use of his innate basketball talents and the use of his most powerful weapon, the ball.  Does he make it?  Only one way to find out!

Sexual shenanigans only available on the Wii

Talk about a game that's surely going to lead to a lot of trouble (and good times, I'm sure).  The game titled, We Dare, is being launched in the U.K. and is compiled of a variety of sexually oriented games.  As you will soon see, one of the games involves dangling the Wii remote and having the girl and guy try take small bites of an imaginary apple...now pair this with a few drinks, and I'm sure they won't be "accidentally" kissing each other either.  Now, the game gets a little dirtier when you have to place the controller into the back of your pants, and get spanked!  The spot really adds to the appeal with the short skirts they have these ladies wearing.  Naturally, it ends with a parental code box blocking out what happens...next.

The Makings of Excellence

I feel like the following spot will be a great way to start off the day. I'm especially pumped to hear the announcement from Apple regarding the new iPad2 - let's hope it's good so the past few months of waiting in agony were not in vain...

Which brings me to the following point, EXCELLENCE... that's right, whether you are part of Apple's wonder team, a lone marathon runner looking to beat last week's time, or a student looking to make it big in this crazy world. Excellence is the guiding light to everything in life and its built from the ground up... Check it out in action below!

I've been enjoying the recent work coming from the New Balance team, it's very catchy and motivational. I think a great change for the company and an excellent ethos for the company to pursue.

'til next time!'
