The Vet and n00b...

It clearly takes something awesome for me to post these days. So here it is. One of my favorite video game commercials of all time.



As always, go big. I'd say 'I'm back to blog more' but that's probably not gonna happen. I'm a lazy blogger this year. I've finally come to accept it.

Axe...

Don't usually blog about ads but this is pretty awesome work. I don't wear Axe and since I'm not a teenager, I probably never will, but I like their ads. Anyway, I think I realized my dream job is to be a freelance commercial writer. Is that a thing? If not, it's going to be my mission to make it my thing.



Go big. I know I will.

Detroit...

In lieu of doing my usual top three Superbowl ads, I'm just going to talk about one. Most of you have already seen this, but it's worth a repost. This commercial is my favorite. Ever. There is an attitude and a feeling that comes from being a Michigander (and loving it) that very few people outside of Michigan can capture. Kid Rock and Eminem can do it, but they've got street cred. Not sure how the guys at Wieden Kennedy nailed it (the ad agency behind every ad that leaves you jaw dropped) but they really, really nailed it.

I read an interview with Eminem's rep that said it originally started out as just a music licensing request, but after Eminem found out the vision and the idea he not only thought it was awesome and paralleled his recent comeback, but he wanted to be in it and rep the D. Some people were hating on him being in the commercial, but I loved it.

I love that the people from Michigan who are famous really try and promote the state. What a great place to represent.



Go big.
