I kept waiting for the spot to have some kind of joke or payoff... but bringing back Orville and making him look like that six flags geezer was the "big idea".
What shit.
Nice article, CR.
As far as I'm concerned, that shitfaced Bogusky hack needs to sit in a pile of fertilizer and think about this. Why is his firm thought of as the greatest thing since instant pocorn? Because they make their people work until 3AM on salary? I hear the average age in that place is about 14, because as soon as they get some experience, they move out quickly, eager for real jobs without slave conditions.
I saw this spot for the first time last night. I hate it.
I'd hate it without the creepy-looking re-animated spoksecorpse. This ad would suck even if Redenbacher was still alive. It's just so freaking beige.
