Back in Summer, I witnessed the planning of Confused.com's new PR strategy. Since then, they've bubbled-wrapped a street in a massive PR stunt as Cake are wont to do. Now, BMB have got on board and produced an array of adverts that hopes to portray a simple message in response to mighty Meerkat ... [More]

Burger King have just brought out this pervy little ad to Singapore (at the moment). The newspapers had a field say making up headlines such as "Burger King blows its advertising wad" and so on.

Check out the trailer for Bolt, an animation produced by Disney that doesn't suck (obviously excluding all the oldies!) which I highly recommend animation enthusiasts to go see.

Ok, so I tried but I couldn't hold out any longer and it is the 1st of December afterall! It might be very sad and corporate brainwashed of me but I'm not ashamed to admit that I feel very Christmasy when Coca Cola's 'Holidays are coming' ad comes on the tv so to spread a little bit of Christmas j...
