Magic Wardrobe

The thing I love about this commercial is that it could basically happen with the guys and gals I hang out with. The ladies love their shoes and the guys their beer... these passions are generally expressed through hysterical screaming. Does this seem sadly familiar to anyone else?

See this masterpiece after the jump.



Granted, I prefer better beer than Heineken, but still. And is it just me, or does the hyperventilating guy near the end look exactly like Tim from the British office?

Conan... also good.

This one was also a big winner...



Conan. Huge. In. Sweden.

A Trifecta of Awesome

So here we have three adds all loosely tied together by the theme of the morning after.

The first is a Romanian beer commercial featuring, in the words of Hugh Grant in Bridget Jones' Diary, "absolutely enormous panties." Not bad. Good reaction shot.

The second has a guy trying to get rid of an arm to which he is handcuffed (I wonder... if this were a Coke Zero commercial, what nationality would the arm be? German, methinks). Good physical comedy.

The third is my favorite. In the tradition of great Man/Ape pairings (Every Which Way But Loose, anyone?), it features a guy waking up to an amorous orangutan. Great reaction from the guy and some superb simian acting. Love the ass-slap. I'm an easy mark...



I could really go for an IBC Root Beer. Wait, does IBC make real beer, too?

Sports Figures Are Hilarious, Part 3

Now that's what we're talking about. Billy Martin. Steinbrenner. That. Is. Acting.

Well... sort of. Steinbrenner probably fired Martin for real before and after takes just to keep it real.

George Steinbrenner. Keeping it real.



If only we could find a link to John Turturro and Oliver Platt (brilliantly) recreating this in The Bronx is Burning...
