Good vs Evil (1996)

God, I love YouTube. Just had to post this. Absolute quality.

Take It To The Next Level

I've always been a massive fan of Nike's football advertising. The 'Can I Kick It' Wrighty ad, Cantona's 'Au Revoir' in the Good vs Evil ad, The Brazil airport ad. All that. Absolute classics. This new spot directed by Guy Ritchie is well up there in my opinion. A fantastic piece of storytelling crammed into a minute and a half. Plus a great balls-out rock soundtrack from the Eagles Of Death Metal. Self-indulgent, entertaining and the best end to a TV ad I've seen in some time.

Online is on the up.


European ad spend online is shooting up.
€11.2 billion in 2007 (up €4 bn from €7.2bn in 2006 which equates to a 40% increase). The figures, from the Interactive Advertising Bureau Europe, indicate that online advertising now claims at least 10% of overall adspend in the the UK, Germany, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland Sweden and Denmark.
Good news for our sister agency, One Black Bear.
By the way, what do you think to the cheesy picture? It's almost a ready art revival.

Tag Galaxy

I really like taggalaxy, it throws up some interesting images you may not immediately think of when typing in your tag. Also when you type in Steve Price you get a very funny result.
