Guest alex Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 Remember those bizarre McEwans 'Alive and Kicking' Lager adverts? There was one where there was a load of tv screens showing a sort of pastiche of an MC Escher optical illusion with blokes pushing stones eternally uphill, then one is pushed through the screens at the end. Then there was another one in B&W where this bloke had just come out of a factory and the clouds coming out the chimney made him reminisce about being in (I assume) Iceland at some hot springs, then they were in a rowing boat going past an iceberg. WTF? Shame the beer isn't that interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

donaldstott 0 Posted September 5, 2009 Share Posted September 5, 2009 Speaking of Nike, some of the Jordan ones are great. I love these (first two especially): Jordan was so intrinsically linked to Nike and he was such a strong brand that Nike didn't even need to show there logo in a couple of those..

Gemmill 34413 Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 I haven't clicked on any of the links, and clearly it's not the best ever, but I like the new Guitar Hero one where all those sweet sluts come skidding into the living room a la Tom Cruise in Risky Business.
