I agree - stop using mass murderer in ads, he don't deserve it!!! Respect his victims, some of them are still alive.. We all are his victims in some way..

Couldn't agree more. Stop using Hateler to sell your garbage.

Just my one cent.

Ignoring history won't change it. Making new taboos is not showing respect to anybody. And no, mikeelrapido, you are not Hitler's victim don't be demagogic.

A bit 1990.

Yes, I think that's when morphing was soooo... fashionable it was the answer to everything. And when a British Newspaper won big with 'Chuck and Di', which blended their faces into one. It was a big winner at the time. Same idea, a lot earlier, more relevant, and better done.

I like the campaign. It sure is kinda oldschool, but it certainly makes a point and has - surprise - good headlines and not just another oh so clever tagline next to the product. So shut you goddamn advertising students and do better.

I am just wondering what exalted position you hold in the universe to tell other people to 'shut up'? Just curious.

Seems they still care less about discrimination in South Africa.

So a big NO.

not a revolutionary concept of merging two differnt corner figures but a good one to convey message of wide coverage of topic. excellent Art Direction. however, the series can go without the hitler or a few other figures, i presume.

"Seems they still care less about discrimination in South Africa."

Seems most of the people on here are extremely narrow-minded. Not to mention unable to grasp the definition of the word "discrimination".
