I don't want to hassle Headvoid for his thoughts as I'm sure he's busy with real life (THE BISCUITS...) but I'm sure other people have interesting things to say as well, probably!

Calvin & Hobbes + Beatles = unbeatable.

UNCLE!

I haven't seen any Christmas ads yet, BUT I WILL POST THEM WHEN THEY COME.

Did that kid just buy his penguin a mail order bride?

 

[Eggs Mayonnaise]

Yes DOESN'T IT MAKE YOU INSTANTLY THINK OF THE BIRTH OF JESUS?

It was THE DOG'S HEAD in the present wait wrong year.

Marks and Spencer go for a charming fairy thing after last year's obnoxious RHW thing. It has a clear message it delivers on in under two minutes! I like it! I'm trying to post like Headvoid!

The American adverts are not as big budget as ours.

People are content with the "Hallmark Channel" look nowadays.

 

[Fuddlemiff]

A six inch version of Fearne Cotton turns out to be an even more abominable concept than the full sized one.

 

[CaptainWacky]

She's kind of good looking though.

They're recycling the Mr Peanut commercial this year. I think our advertisers just aren't as into Christmas as yours are.

 

[CaptainWacky]

It's probably because of the John Lewis adverts making Christmas advents "an event" over here. But someone who knows the history of advertising could go into detail...
