Duuuuude. You're grounded.

I agree, that Fake PSA idea is older than dirt, and WHOAH when I saw that name I assumed it was spelled differently to avoid lawsuit. Obviously not, and that's kind of an unnecessary risk. As is alienating potential target market.

The morphing is quite neat. It's saying both generations of fashionistas can dress in Mango, which is actually spot on for the brand. All you need is long hair, a flatchested frame, and maybe some valium for that distant look.

So who is going to complain about this one because he's taking on the bikini-girl role as eyecandy? Ugh, twitter is a wet blanket on ad ideas as of late.

I thought the twist was pretty funny, albeit somewhat predictable (as soon as I saw the poster, I figured). Nicely executed though, a good homage to those "story of my sports success" films.

I'm really fed up with "lets do internet memes the kids are gonna like it" strategy, tbh.

They can't handle the dank memes.

Dabitch's picture

I meant it's harder to sell. Clients have no ability to envision things that don't have 57 photograph/gif/film references in a deck these days.

I like the animation. The colours have always given them a little bit of a Fischer Price feel, IMHO, but I am glad they finally got rid of the serif. It's an improvement because where it started was atrocious.

The best part is the animated dots, listening, working, searching etc.

Dank old memes are dank old memes even when dressed up as hip truth campaign. Remember what Bill said? "We forget we can mold it". I wish we'd stop regurgitating the web already, and make something the web wants to copy. I know that shit is hard, yo.

Fun fact, this story was later used as a textbook example on how not to seed the internet in a series of lectures held by Bjoern.
