cool comercial...."Very Big Ad"

A very cool and funny commercial for Carlton Draught Beer.
Th score is set to Carl Orff's "O Fortuna" and is very amusing to watch unfold.
This post is taken as inspiration from bobby's "Talk Talk" ad.

Enjoy

That was one of the best commercials I've ever seen. Proves once more that American commercials don't hold a candle against the European ones.

Eh, to make it clear... Carlton Draught is an Australian brand of beer. And as you may or may not know, Australia is basically a mini-USA in almost all respects. But I see what you were trying to convey.

Okay, to rephrase my statement. American commercials, when compared to the ones from the rest of the world, SUCK.

Hope that made it a little clearer and covered all bases.

When reading here about beer commercials and nationalities, I was reminded of this series for Molson Canadian:

Sorry, I don't know how to embed YouTube videos here. But this is funny nonetheless.
