Great Advertising: Snickers - Don’t Stop (Director’s Cut)

Here is an example of great advertising!
The commercial has nothing to do with Snickers, but concept of the commercial is original - and that’s what appeals to me!

HAHAHA! I hadn’t heard Limp Bizkit in a long time and now I know why
In all seriousness though, that commercial was awesome but who ever wrote it must not have understand what the snickers product is - lol.
I’m not a big fan of Limp’s (or Snoop’s) but I didn’t think the song was that bad!
There are so many ads like that. They just throw their logo in at the end. These marketing folk should now better. You need to connect the advertisement to the product your selling or the ad will steal all the thunder.
That may be true, but I know that I completely ignore TV ads when their on - and look now, I’m showing one off on my blog!
Sometimes you need that random ad to keep your product in people’s minds, just like Honda’s The Cog ad.
The song is for “Army of One” and its name is “Let’s Roll”. It is Band from Kuwait.
The The ad was shot in Saudi Arabia, Specially in Jeddah.
Nice site, Saman. Just wonder if you ever check your site with IE? I first surfed your site using IE and the top part of this page was blank. Everything was being pushed down. Just want to let you know.
Thanks for the warning, I actually do check it in IE7 and don’t have that issue - but I do know that it happens with IE6, which sucks because 23.3% of my visitors us IE6!
I need to contact the designer and let them know!
Thanks again!
Hey, I also learned new thing here.
It looks like its time to upgrade my IE.
Well that’s good to hear! Also, if you’re going to upgrade, you should really give FireFox a chance!
IE7 copied all of it’s new features from FF but doesn’t do as good a job as FF!
The one feature IE7 has over Firefox that I really like is the ability to see all your open tabs in one window. That makes it real easy to switch between tabs, when you have a lot of them open.
Of course, that’s not enough for me to start using IE7 over Firefox, but it still is a nice feature.
Aniela, I know of a great plugin that will do what you’re looking for:
Firefox Showcase will display all of your open tabs and windows in a tab - just like IE7 does!
Also, this plugin has been around since FF1.5 so I think it’s something else the IE7 crew copied…
Wow, that’s awesome !!!
I love this plugin !
Thanks for letting me know about it
No worries, thanks for becoming a regular visitor!
Hey thanks for this commercial. I trawl the Internet everyday looking for new and exciting videos and I’d never seen this one before. I’m putting that on my site right now and I’ll give you the shout out.
I’ve seen a lot of commercials lately but that one is just so well executed. Maybe not at pushing Snickers but it certainly gives the brand a cool edge that it didn’t have before.
It is a pretty cool advertisement.
