It’s a Mascot Trap: The Ackbar Story
Whether it was a trap or not, the campaign to bring one of the highest officers of the Rebel Alliance, Admiral Ackbar, to become the new mascot for the Ole Miss Rebels has been brought to an end. With this highly unbelievable tale of fanboy/girl dreams, it has come to the decision that Ackbar would not become the mascot for Ole Miss. ESPN has developed this story into a great commercial (short documentary?) to be seen by all who may have not had the chance to get the full impact of how close the south was to gaining a new mascot out of this world.
I Went to the Wrong School
Anyone who attends the University of Baltimore this semester can enroll in a Zombies Studies class taught by Arnold Blumberg. Blumberg is the author of Zombiemania and has developed his class agenda around this piece of literature and works of zombie cinema throughout history. Students will be reading various books and films about the undead while focusing on more than just the works, but as well as other areas of how they effect and relate to society.
Blumberg states, “It’s relatively easy to connect the zombie to what is happening in culture. We’ll have fun with it, but we’ll also give it a serious look in different contexts, like that of American progress.”
And he also adds, “The zombie functions as an allegory for all sorts of things that play out in our country. Whether it’s the threat of communism during the Cold War or our fears about bioterrorism in 2010.”
Who needs Principles of Earth Science or The Cultural Perspective on Gender when you can study the walking dead. When the zombie outbreak occurs, only those who have studied the key characteristics of brain devouring zombies could possibly save us from the infection, or perhaps those with a heavy arsenal of guns.

T-He: Old Spice Remix
Someone had to have remixed the Isaiah Mustafah Old Spice commercials one of these days, and that man is Mike Relm. It is a pretty catchy rhythm combined with the video responses Mustafah did from all the comments the Old Spice commercials got on YouTube and Twitter. He may be on a horse, by Mike Relm takes these hilarious commercials to a new beat. Check out the remix of the Old Spice videos after the jump along with Relm’s remix of Iron Man 2, which is also pretty catchy.
Old Spice Advertising Wins Again
The award winning agency, Wieden+Kennedy, win advertising again with another Old Spice Body Wash commercial, “Questions,” with Isaiah Mustafa, “The Man Your Man Should Smell Like.” These commercials are so awesome it is hard to believe that commercials can be this entertaining still. This advertisement was probably better than any of the previous Super Bowl’s commercials, which is pretty sad. Isaiah Mustafa recently visited Attack of the Show to talk about his prepping and production of the commercial shoot while plugging his name in for the wishlist of Marvel’s Luke Cage. I hope he gets it, he is pretty awesome and has a voice of a superhero. Swan dive into this awesome commercial after the jump!
