Default Strangest adverts?

Car adverts, or scent adverts?

Both seem equally mystifying to me at the moment.

Perfume adverts just get increasingly more ridiculous every year. Why do they keep dragging Kate Moss up aswell? She’s a crack-*****. Considering how many amazingly fit birds there are, and that’s the best they can do?

Car adverts are, well, meh. No idea why, in the UK, they’ve got an R8 advert on advertising the R8’s snow-driving capabilities?

The Johnny Depp one is just, well, what?

It's like a film that's had 99% of the footage cut out.

If you want to see unusual advertising - follow the Poundland twitter feed. The run up to Christmas has been hilarious in a very juvenile kind of way. I reckon their PR and Marketing department is being run by 14 year old kids!

Yep, saw that one last night and wondered about it. What happened to funny clever adverts like the one where the PG Tips monkey gets carried off by an eagle?
