Concept is good, execution not so.

'Perfectly' makes no sense with the image in the glass.

For me makes sense. You put a good politician and a famous sex scandal in a blender and ta da: you have Bill Clinton.

miko1aj's picture 1378 pencils

Yeah. I'm with those who like this actually. It's obviously very good executed, so i dont' understand that complaints about that. And finally thought that Bill Clinton is mixture of these two gentlemen is in some way true.

ok what you are saying is right " You put a good politician and a famous sex scandal in a blender and ta da: you have Bill Clinton" , but i believe that there is a better graphical way to deliver this message, i don't like the final compositions of the ads( the graphical treatment) amateur work, or maybe its a way out to sell the ads,,, anyway to me this still lame design

Pretty funny for sure. But it's just that when you "mix" politics (political jokes) into selling a household appliance, the ad just rings false. To me, the whole intention of the ad is to get some laughs. And laughs go over big at awards shows. I liked their "escape scenarios" campaign A WHOLE LOT better. That actually sold their unique product feature.

I think this concept would have worked much better without the political angle. They could have used musicians (or maybe CD album covers) or movies stars or something else that doesn't introduce scandal into the ad. The other concern is that this suggests that Bill Clinton is a perfect blend of George Washington and Hugh Grant (but why would the perfect blend involve the best of one element and the worst of the other?)

jungleraven's picture 288 pencils

if m not wrong itz Hugh's photo when he was caught wth a prostitute...

Sell the sizzle, not the steak.

Tapper's picture 480 pencils

Pedople who disagree with execution are actually giving a case for this type of execution, look how much conversation it has generated. This is very good, product is in shot (1/2 the page), features - smeatures. Cracking different idea, and funny.

Strip. Strip. Strip.

A. J. SMITH's picture 2850 pencils

I disagree, peoplIe'll remember the concept, and the conversation generated, but will forget the brand, infact already I have without scrolling back up to check.

So no, there is no need, as it doesn't sell its product.

lubomirk's picture 10 pencils

mixes everything perfectly :)))) great one and very inspirational

Speaking of Bill Clinton:

It is opined that Bill Clinton committed racist hate crimes, and I am not free to say anything further about it.
