Death Wish Coffee and The Late Riser

This is a commercial with skateboarding in it that I can get behind. Death Wish Coffee presents The Late Riser. – Thanks to Mezmer for the tip.

Sewa Kroetkov for Lenovo

Sewa Kroetkov for Lenovo computers is the focus of a commercial in Lenovo’s campaign awkwardly titled “Make your DO come true.” On the the DP’s list of things to do, maybe reshoot the 2/3 of the action that resulted in butt shots. I had to look up Sewa Kroetkov because I am an old man […]

Me and My RC

I’ve seen skateboards with logos for all kinds of drinks, including Pepsi, Coke, Mountain Dew and Sobe , but this is the first time I’ve seen an RC Cola skateboard. This particular one made by Super Surfer. They actually molded “Me and My RC” onto the top deck. The Super Surfer imprints on the bottom […]

Translucent, colorless, flavorless

Ahhhh, the extent that Nestle will go to trying to sell you horse hooves and cow muscles. It’s called “Bon Parj Jumble” and this commercial is for the Russian market, or at least was done by a Russian agency. Director Alberto Accettulli must like skateboards, as he also directed a commercial for Nike SB. Who […]

Lays Deep Ridge potato chips has a commercial running in the Netherlands featuring an ant dropping into some spud vert, attempting some sort of body varial (it’s hard to see exactly what’s going on) and then bailing with a parachute à la Bob Burnquist in the Grand Canyon. (Should that be “à le” for a […]

Champions of Facial Hair

I’ve been told this commercial airs on TV but so far I haven’t seen it. Donny sent me a phone cam capture, and Simon Woodstock found it on YouTube. Ray Barbee in a Just for Men commercial after the jump.

Sonic is not a skateboard

It’s been a while since we’ve seen a new “car-as-skateboard” commercial.” What did people do before the 90’s? That was like the wild west of TV commercials. No, this isn’t a closed circuit, and these are not professional stunt drivers. Yes, your car is a skateboard! Yes, go try this at home! [Source: Motor Trend]
