The only thing identical is the phrase which has been around alot longer than these ads.

you dont have to be sorry for being ignorant and comparing apples to oranges, i'm sorry that you are one of those people who can't wait to write a "DONE!" comment...

very good!

rebelscum's picture 1867 pencils

Exactly the same as a WWF Campaign done in Canada last year. I mean EXACTLY the same. Don't know if JWT did that one as well, but it's identical.

Excelente. Impactante!

I like this and the fish smothered in oil best, I think because the play on "around" where it's actually surrounding the rice and the fish respectively. What goes around comes around, and it is Actually around the items! I also LOVE the little "place your trash in proper receptacles" dude on the outside of the middle wrapper, very witty.
Lovely overall.

I like the fact that you used the word "around" four times in your comment. Just look around you, I think you're the only person who figured out the play on "around" in the ads. Genius!!!

Well, congratulations, team. Champagne all around!?

Pogi5's picture 253 pencils

mrtalented's picture 2181 pencils

looks like student work. sorry.

andreis's picture 292 pencils

really, i don't understand why people are keep saying "sorry". Who do you think you are? An advertising referee? god? do you think it's up to you if this ad will get any recognition or not? or even better - "sorry, but it's been done before", well, i dont want to ruin your life, but EVERYTHING HAS BEEN DONE BEFORE, so stop please...

Dubai's construction boom is nowhere near as huge as its fake ad boom.

EGGO's picture 295 pencils

Uh oh...I don't know what to tell my friend that his idea is not original anymore. http://img362.imageshack.us/my.php?image=n43101780306123601581am3.jpg

You have to hate advertising in order to truly love it.

Davosk's picture 4439 pencils

It's not exactly the same and it's been backed up by two others. The art direction here is 100 times better. I go for these.

fabio16's picture 2 pencils

Nice

Vudu6's picture 75 pencils

I agree with Davosk... the art direction here is way better :)

Kris's picture 1486 pencils

Yeah, who cares the idea has been done before, right?

Adaddicted's picture 763 pencils

As per Adcritic10-10, the campaign itself is recycled; even the copy. Late indeed!!!
But the Art Direction is simply wonderful...
