Walmart pulls out the burn book.
Lindsay Lohan, Amanda Seyfried & Lacey Chabert take on their ‘Mean Girls’ roles again for a new Walmart ad. Tons of callbacks from the film are included in this one. Have a watch.
Spider-Man: Far from out-of-Home
As spotted by David Ogiste on LinkedIn, PlayStation Australia went all out last week. To celebrate the launch of Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, they pulled off the out-of-home ad of the month. Maybe the year.
In Sydney, the installation features a truck suspended in mid-air, ensnared by spider webs. Two individuals dressed as Spider-Man, or perhaps it's Spider-Men, have come to the truck's rescue using webs in both white and black.
If you’ve seen a better OOH ad recently, drop it in the comments. We all want to see it.
You deserve Chicken Tendies.
Chili’s dropped a spot that asks kids the hard questions and ultimately draws the conclusion that we adults deserve their Chicken Crispers more than the children. Hot take there.
Big fan of these kids. Think they might deserve them more.
I would do anything for love.
You know we had to share at least ONE Christmas spot…after all, it’s officially Mariah Carey season. She de-thawed today, as you can see.
Anyways. This new spot from Marks & Spencer comes to us from Mother in London, featuring plenty of familiar faces, and lots of things you love to hate during the holiday season.
