Should have been a smaller gun. When he pulled that cannon out of his bag he totally fumbled it, ruining the surprise. Although it was saved by Palmer asking if he can make oranges more "orangeyer" in post. Heh.
here's a hypothetical question.
let's just say, for the sake of argument, that you were judging d and ad telly yesterday.
what two ads would you have given pencils to?
shut up you loser
not yours
Scamp. We've got to email before putting up the stuff Paul send us.
Now I'm going to have to post that dreadful Eastenders Jackson 5 ad and slag it off just so we don't match.
;-)
Post modern. Self referential. Shit.
Of course it's self referential you muppet
Anon 10:01 - Gorilla and Sony Play Doh. Sorry to choose the cliches, but they are cliches for a reason aren't they....
Cake and Gorilla, obv.
Why, do you know something we don't? Something surprising? Is it a pencil for the brilliant Thorntons ad made by the great Harmony Korine and that excellent agency SH**?
i tried going to the link saatchi.com/NDS2008 but it's not working.
Oh yes - and of course the Thorntons ad! Black Pencil for that one!
Childish.
Who shot that one Ted?
omg i woz there, it woz well scary!
Whoever this murderer is I don't think he'll get away with it. You can clearly see his face in some of it and there are several witnesses who I'm sure could pick him out in a line up. It just goes to prove, crime does not pay.
Why do all creative awards, events, etc are always advertised with jokes involving violence or sex always so over the top? I find it obvious and boring.
Nothing against this particularly, though.
So what was the ad he was 'creating' supposed to be for? What products would you guys use this premise?
I want to comment on the blog survey but there is nowhere to do so, so I am going to comment on it here:
WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED TO ADVERTISING that the earliest that it might even be asked if people leave is before 6?
Where's the 4.30 option? Where's the morning scotch? Where's the afternoon kipping?
Donald Draper would not approve.
i'm guessing this is a promo for an award show and not CP's actual last ad.
it was long my most fervent wish to work for c. palmer. even had lunch with him. and i'm an american. so, you know.
chris palmer has truly done it all. great creative career...great agency...great directorial career.
i'd recommend you temporarily redirect your clearly UK-innate need to worship someone away from Juan Cabral and towards a fellow Anglo-Saxon with equally good hair. Christopher Palmer.
i said: it was long my most fervent wish to work FOR c. palmer
i meant: it was long my most fervent wish to work WITH c. palmer
though it's funny to imagine CP having lunch with a PA who's considering "using" him.
That was OK, up until the gun came out.
Then it turned to lame rubbish.
That Harry Potter can't act for shit.
He did deserve to get shot.
For wearing such a stupid hat.
Hey Scamp – see Metro this morning? The story about Miami being covered in foam bubbles for the next Sony ad? Does that rate as truth on your 'Juan-o-meter'?
It's not from Juan, it's from his swedish pets.
Sony Foam City...

Yawn.
Images like no other?
Mildly disappointing adverts like no other?
Running.out.of.relevant.ideas.like.no.other
Just had a look at the Sony site... It's EXACTLY the same idea as 'balls', but it's foam. That's a bit on the crap side, isn't it? And it appears to be for Sony's digital still cameras... but foam lacks contrast and solidity...so perhaps the tag line will be 'really.difficult.to.auto.focus.on.like.no.other'
