Is this just like the Red bull one. Jigsaw - to do list .. one and the same.

Im gussin lucozade is an energy drink?

Yeah, I think the selling proposition is very similar for both products. Gives you stamina.

This is a pretty simple idea, something that comes to your mind as the very first thing on a brainstorming session, but the execution is really good, so it works great at the end. And, sometimes the first thing that comes to your mind is the best.

I disagree on the execution part. 2 white patches breaking up a black patch!
Papers could have overlapped for me.

I think this won at Cannes.
Either I didn't get it, or I don't like it.

Lucozade is the forefather of energy drinks, had lost ground over the years to new upstarts RedBull etc. Ad is competent but not inspiring.

Looks like a briefing that was turned into an ad: Lucozade gives you the power to do a lot of things.
"Okay, why don´t we just show this?".
I find it a bit boring.

The to-do list itself is good, though. That dog has some life!

i'm not sure if i like the ad as a whole. much better than the red bull one - since this energy drink gives you the ability to get a lot done versus sitting around putting together a blank puzzle.

seeing a ton of things checked off is a pretty mundane, but reading the list really brings it home for me. so, the question becomes...how many people will actually read it?

my favorite touch is towards the end - where their pen gave out and they had to switch to a new one. subtle, but nicely reinforces the message.

Duh...is this a FRESH idea? huh! It won a lion this year.
Is there something I am missing in this ad? "TO DO" list..and all checked...an energy drink = World's most wanted Ad Award. Is there any hidden/smart thing there that i can't see? Help.

I agree with you. I wish it was this easy to win every time.
