T-He: Dodge Challenger “Freedom” Commercial

I saw this commercial right before the world cup match between England and USA. Who ever planned that timing was probably an expert in media planning and whoever came up with this commercial was a creative genius. Not very loud and in your face humor, but very smart and well done. Now I don’t really enjoy car commercials too much, as they are pretty hard to sell and are boring, but whoever created this commercial, “Freedom” for the Dodge Challenger and the Kia Soul commercial with the hamsters, have gotten car advertisements down to a science. No longer will I be bored watching cars drive around turns and up mountains. I now have the luxury of watching hamsters roll up in their new cars and play basketball and Americans truly embracing their freedoms in their new Dodge Challengers. Watch the commercial after the jump!

Transformers 3 Plot Details and More!

Of course, what would be a big budget franchise without the use of 3D? Transformers 3 is now confirmed to be tainted with the 3D stamp of approval, but no word on whether it will be post converted or shot in 3D. My assumption is that it will be post converted, due to Michael Bay’s lack of respect towards the technology. I don’t really blame him for his type of filming and that this was only a settlement on behalf of the studio’s demands. USA Today got the first big scoop of the big details and many more that have been speculated for Transformers 3. Spoiler warnings come after the jump!

Mortal Kombat: Rebirth has now had close to four million views and rising. This short film puzzled viewers as to the origin and what this was promoting if it was promoting anything at all.

T-He: Kia Soul Hamsters, “This or That”

When I first saw this fluffy little guys in the first Kia Soul advertisement, I thought it was pretty genius and creatively intuitive; “A New Way to Roll.” The marketing was simplistic and brought you in with humor while staying true to what you are selling instead of relying on just a gag. The new Kia Soul hamster commercial is just priceless. Not only are the Hamsters portrayed with more human attributes, but they are rapping and pure gangster. Now I’m not too sure if the persona of the hamsters being rappers were the right move, unless that was the demographic they were looking for. I would think they just came upon the song and went from there. Either way it’s a hilariously creative commercial with still the same charm, but just more in your face. Check out the raping Kia Soul hamsters after the jump!

When Worlds Collide: Futurama Meets The X-Men

Futurama X-Men

GottaBeCarl, on DeviantArt, created a unique take on clashing two big properties, X-Men and Futurama, into a great artistic display of nerdgasm.

He notes, “A friend of mine suggested one day that it would be cool to see the characters of Futurama as X-Men and so I drew him Fry as Cyclops. For some reason I couldn’t just stop there…and what came of it was a pretty extensive illustration with some of the most obscure characters from both the X-Men and Futurama universes.”

Pure Action, Pure Explosions, Pure Adventure

Director/Editor, Jacob Bricca, of this short montage, Pure, has folks talking. Bricca calls it “a meditation on genre, a commentary on visual cliches, and a celebration of the visceral pleasures of cinema.” This montage is pieced together very creatively almost as a film narrative itself. The scenes come together as some of the more visual clichés in action as a man drawing his gun, explosions, and stair chases. The music is by The Jesus Lizard and flows very well and has great scenes from some of the most classic action movies. Visit the original video here at Vimeo and be sure to check out Pure after the jump!
