Here is a very simple and straight forward video from Sam Beam/Iron and Wine using some captivating dance in a unique setting to complement a not so straight forward song. I think the combination of these makes for a simple but semi-sureal experience.

This is brilliant. I think I say that a lot on this blog, but then again I’m trying to bring you the most brilliantest stuff I find. This is one of them.

This Old Spice commercial is fun, creative and needs to be watched a few times to be absorbed. Since Bruce Campbell of “Evil Dead” fame starred in a few of these a year or two ago where every lady said “Ahoy”, I knew Old Spice was changing their marketing. This spot changes the concept since then and launches it into a little more absurd, but highly entertaining territory.”Two tickets to that thing that you like”, something that every woman wants to hear. Classic.

Loved the Betty White/Abe Vigoda Snickers spot when it was shown during the Super Bowl. Saw this new one last night during the olympics with Aretha Franklin and Liza Minelli. I think this is a great concept that uses “classic” celebrities that are reawakened in front of our eyes, (Abe Vigoda is still alive?), for surprise and extra effect. Can’t wait to see what else is in their bag.

I liked yesterdays Super Bowl Commercials. I feel they were more creative than in years past, and along with a well played and entertaining game I was captivated by them. I do realize now how biased I am though, because my favorites involved The Simpsons, Google and Sock Monkeys - all things that I love. Here are my favorites, biased or not, I think they are well made and fun to watch.

Tiger’s not having a lot of fun right now with all of his media coverage, but that doesn’t mean you can’t. Play Tiger’s Transgressions a fun little flash game that’s a fun, albeit terrible concept (for humanity anyway). I think 18 holes of this is about perfect for where he’s at in the mistress count, so they should extend it as it now only goes to 9..

This video was created to raise Aids awareness in Africa. 156 countries singing “All You Need is Love” by the Beatles. Watch this and stir your soul, (with a boat oar).

Fun to hear another perspective on this late night switcheroo…

This seriously looks like it could be one of the worst movies ever made. This makes “Snakes on a Plane” look like the “Godfather.” Mega Shark Vs. Giant Octopus. Take it in people. I wonder if this is straight to DVD or in theaters? I smell Oscar…
(and by “Oscar” I mean “the Grouch” because he lives in a garbage can, and that would obviously smell. I was not referring however to the the award statue for the Mega Shark’s obviously “award-winning” performance in this fantastic flick.)
