It’s MICCC or MIC3 or whatever, it’s Monday.
Orson Welles for G&G:
This commercial truly sells it’s product. I know when I watch it I certainly feel like I could use a shot, and I don’t even really drink. Orson Welles did another commercial that’s famous for him getting his drunk on, which has been covered to death. This one however is definitely an iconic celebrity overseas commercial and deserving of an entry. It’s also one of the most depressing commercials ever made. You look at this cinematic giant chuckling into his whiskey and you see the underlying sadness in his eyes. Watching it after learning New Moon broke all kinds of records… yeah, I think I need something to pick me up.
So let’s go with a classic clip from the Critic:
That’s better.
Thanksgiving is coming so it’s only appropriate to list things I’m thankful for.
1. That I’m not a teenage girl or a sad middle aged woman who looks upon the Twilight series as crack.
2. That eagles are the national bird and not turkeys. ‘Cause I bet eagles taste awful.
3. Benches and chairs, for otherwise tables would be rendered pointless.
More tomorrow.
