Excellent new Heineken ad campaign

[Reggs]

If Herge ever got into advertising, this would be the result. I saw this on YouTube and think this whole campaign is great. I love everything about it. It's also rare to have an ad with the leading man having curly hair. Watch this first: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZcX1P...embedded#at=35

Clever using the Mad Men theme song to create the air of sophistication. Well put together ad, I like it. I feel like a beer, not Heineken!

 

[appolyon]

Nice work from Heineken. This would have worked out nicer if we got to meet the characters first and then see what they were all talking about at the end ...

 

[tagutcow]

I can already imagine the iPUA forums going gangbusters over this.

 

[HRoi]

Is it supposed to be a response to all that most interesting man in the world bullshit?

 

[thekunk07]

it's one of the worst beer campaigns I have ever seen.

The Heineken ads are terrible. Not as bad as the new Stella Artois ads, but still terrible. It seems like beer advertising is starting to go the way of perfume advertising; namely, pointless meanderings that make you go "what the **** was that supposed to be about?" at the end.


That Guiness ad rocks, though.

the heineken ads are terrible.

 

[thekunk07]

yeah, or liquor advertising. maybe the ban on advertising hard booze wasn't a bad idea.

Those ads were awful and the Guinness one was just vile. I guess that's what it takes to sell swill.
