Most EPIC Yogurt Commercial Goes To.....

Plain plain plain plain blah blah same plain strain maine.

But they really tried with this one. Fage's Greek Yogurt has me a bit confused with this ad. It seems to stray a little bit from the actual product. It almost reminds me of a dove body soap mixed with a hair product commercial. At the end I'm just left confused how all the images besides the cow and all the white liquid relates to the yogurt. It doesn't really leave my mouth watering for the stuff.

Lane Bryant is Not Your Mom

The plus size clothing brand Lane Bryant is making an attempt to be sexy and appeal to a younger, sexually active demographic. Cacique, a new line of intimates, is marketed to those younger, sexually active customers who want to feel confident and beautiful when they get to the bedroom. They stand behind an emphasis of "fashion and fit" rather than just focusing on size. The idea of a mother re-assuring her plus size daughter that physical appearance isn't everything is being reversed as Lane Bryant toys with their insecurities and desire to look sexually attractive. With this commercial they say that your mom is wrong, and you should want to look just like this unrealistic version of what most plus-sized women resemble. Will this campaign be successful? I think so. Will this alienate the "mom's" who also shop at Lane Bryant? Its a disgusting thought but even your mom wants to get down and feel confident.

Chrysler Supports Detroit Arts?

I'm confused. Does this ad really suggest that Chrysler is stimulating the economy in Detriot and that promotes the Detriot arts culture? Do they want us to believe that the jobs they provide to one of the worst cities in the United States is helping people create paintings and sculptures, or booking a theater for a church quire to perform with Eminem? I'm lost but it was a nice effort.

Axe Clean Your Balls Commercial



I have heard so many mixed reviews of this Axe commercial. Most are in disbelief, some are offended, but it has everyone talking. Is the bad buzz good or are people turned off by a product who implies something so controversial?
