loool it's really funny !! look to his eyes !! hehe

I don' t get either of these. He was putting together a doll house or something? The other guy was putting in his dentures with super glue? These are so stupid.

It goes a little something like this.

The big bikey got home to find his daughters favorite doll broken, he proceeded to fix the doll using this hardcore super-glue that "sticks in seconds"
unfortunatly for him he got stuck to the doll, which leaves him in an embarrassing situation because big bikeys aren't usually seen playing with dolls.

or you can read into it whatever you like, its your imagination

Location can be better. It does not look like a clinic or hospital. :-P

I agree. I had no idea he was waiting for medical assistance. This should be more obvious.

So so

Im not trying to be offensive... but these ideas are so fkn easy to get and funny as well... I dont know why is it so hard to get.

The lay out is a bit boring (that white frame is really ugly, and you could improve the logo) and photography could be better (angle shot, levels, location), but they still rock.

WELL DONE!

reminds me one american pie scene jaja cool.

Very Stupid AD ... Bad Idea .... Bad Photography ... look at his right eye...its a bit blured/out of registration... How can this crap be posted???

hee hee i like! Yes it's been done for every single super glue account that ever existed, but who really cares?

reminds me of some ads for long lasting glue, where old people still have their toy soldiers sticking on their heads.

Can't tell it's a doc's office or E.R. FAIL.

the art director caused this ad to fail.
a casual viewer will be hard pressed to understand that the guy's fingers are stuck to that doll.
anything could be going on here, it's totally ambiguous.

which is a shame. the casting is perfect and the idea (yes, it's easy but) good.
