Today's Message Brought to You By...

We're an TV-advertising-free household. So today we decided to go to the local cinema to watch the World's Best Commericals. I kept thinking: "when is the movie going to start?" ;-)

Some were really excellent and reminded us that good advertising is indeed an artform and should be appreciated other media. I'd forgotten about good ads. There are seemingly so few of them. And it was a weird realization in a world far too inundated with marketing messages.

It was strange that we paid money to see advertisers' attemps to take more of our money, but hey ho. It was a worthy excercise and a film excursion devoid of superheros, aliens, lesbians, ninjas, car-chases or robots. You know, our usual preferred fare.

Anyway, we had a few faves, I thought we'd share. And even though I HATE HATE HATE CG'd talking babies (in any media), the acting and script save this entirely. And makes it genius.

And we really want to shop here....(note our actual bed is in this clip too):


What about you guys? Any faves recently?
