Nice. Simple. I'd be surprised if it hasn't been done before, but I haven't seen it.

Sorry, Pal. You don't have any taste.

instinctive traveller's picture 193 pencils

That's down right rude. How can you just sit there and say someone doesn't have taste? http://upthechimney.blogspot.com

maybe it's rude, but he might be right. the ad is awful.

Well, many things have been done with chewing gum. Even with chewed chewing gum...

Check this one of my own for sugar free Trident.:

The people here are always specting award winning stuff, but admit it, this one gets the job done.

elsontong's picture 292 pencils

Well done! Ignore the negative comments, sour-grapes should be minced and thrown out to the sea.

intovisual's picture 24 pencils

Kinda looks like the pack is pooping gum.

hey dude nice idea but i wish the designer had tried the idea of teeth made out of gum. i think it would have made the msg louder and clearer. but i reall appreciate the concept it serves the purpose

and it also would have been done before (lots and lots of times).
btw, the message here is "a wall made of gum, because a wall is the symbol of protection". can't really see how teeth made of the gum would make the message clearer (only the ad would be better creatively, but that's something completely different).

act's picture 531 pencils

now, are we going to chew the brick wall gum or not? if we are, that says..........

Charlie Pratt's picture 427 pencils

Pooping gum? HA.

This isn't' the world's greatest ad, but it was never meant to be. It, like WilhelmR said, "gets the job done."

Beyond that, it's all just ego.

And to the classy gentleman who thinks he knows who has and who hasn't taste...

If this wall is supposed to make me feel protected, it ain't workin. The concept is nice I suppose, but the application is lacking. Perhaps if we built a Wrigley's Extra castle or something. That would make more sense.

MoveOn's picture 38 pencils

Works well for me and it's refreshingly simple for a change.
