Milk Men...

A new parody of Mad Men - looks fantastic!

Milk Men - A Mad Men Parody

Guinness Brings Advertising To Life

A beautiful ad... but I have no idea what this has to do with beer.

An Open Door Policy

An intriguing proposition put forth by Forza Motorsport 3 - creating an open door policy on the worlds best cars.

Something that I am sure will have huge appeal to car buffs and racing fans alike!

Porsche Puts A New Branch On Their Family Tree

A new ad for Porsche's Panamera 4 door sports car.

Taking advantage of their history is a great way to launch a car that many folks thought would lead to an over extension of the brand's equity.

Also great to see that even the 922 wasn't forgotten!

Levi's continues to 'Go Forth' with Walt Whitman

Another ad in Levi's 'Go Forth' campaign - again featuring Walt Whitman's poetry. Supposedly read by Whitman himself...

Apple Fends Off Windows 7 With Superior Fashion Sense

Well it didn't take long for Apple produce this spot (Perhaps not surprising given all the hype around Microsoft's new Windows 7 OS!)

In 30 seconds Apple is able to not only tell us that we have heard all of this hype before, but also able to reinforce that windows (even if repackaged for Windows 7) will never make you cool...



A couple of other new ads targeting Window's 7:



Direct TV Resurrects Chris Farley!

Well not quite... But they did manage to hire David Spade (Farley's long time "friend") to get into one of their new ads and refer to Chris as "that."

I'm all about the integration of pop culture into advertising, but something seems a little off here... "too soon" perhaps?

I guess this goes to show what folks are willing to do for a buck.
