the illustration on which is based is so old, that you can find it on mugs, t-shirts and mouse pad.. that reminds me that mouse pads are disappearing. That old.

It's not old. It's a classic.

hmmmm...
I'm not sure I get it.
what's on a man's mind? Viagra.
is that the idea?

Almost. What's on a man's mind? SEX! What helps you to 'keep up the good work' and have great sex? Viagra. Pretty lame ad btw.

Kateter's picture 1816 pencils

if that's what they're trying to say I agree: pretty lame.

even the titel says that it's sigmund freud. then it makes sense at least. but i agree: pretty lame

Ivan is wrong. It's not a classic. It's a used idea which has been converted into an ad. In other's words a logo has been tacked on at the bottom. Which doesn't speak much for creativity.

ShanGhai!

ShanGhai!

It's a very good ad. Like it very much. It's also creative to get the idea to use this classic Freud visual for Viagra. Creativity is always yes...creativity is never no.

I am so happy that I do not see comments: has be done...overdone...done and done again. It is my true nightmare. From a honest creative director.
