What is it with sports, sex and testosterone? Oh wait. Silly question. A new campaign for SportsNew New York from Ogilvy & Mather, More Sports, More Testosterone, launches this week with "Muscles," which shows how watching SNY builds muscles as a skinny guy transforms into a muscle-bound dude, and "Libido," an ad that shows the impact watching sports has on a just married couple - 95 year-old Leopold and his much younger trophy wife. As the older man watches SNY, he quickly tires out his new bride and the ad closes with a shot of her gasping on his oxygen tank.
They we get a kick out of testosterone-fueled jungle boy bench pressing a couple of hot female cops over his head, we much prefer the ogle-the-big-boobed-hottie approach to elevating interest in New York sports teams made possible by Tehmeena Afzal's love for the Mets, Giants and Knicks.

While Reebok is all about helping women tone their ass into stunningly tight, bootylicious deliciousness, Famous Footwear, which, of course, sells Reeboks, is all bout helping it customers daydream about situations they'd never find themselves in...just because they are pondering the purchase of a new pair of kicks.
Three new commercials from Campbell Mithun for the brand help a woman imagine besting a group of female Kenyan runners, help another envision herself kicking but in a martial arts battle and pump up a guy's ego by helping him imagine himself as a cop chasing after a criminal on a rooftop Parkour-style.
It's all very silly. But so are most of the things we all imagine so we guess that makes this campaign dead on target.

Cultivator Advertising & Design is out with a new TV campaign, Truth in Beervertising, for regional specialty brewer Breckenridge Brewery of Colorado. Four 15-second spots poke fun at some of the bigger beer brands' ad claims.
Each spot features the voiceover of Breckenridge brewmaster and general manager Todd Usry, and, on camera, head brewer Bob Harrington. One spot describes Breckenridge's seasonal Summerbright Ale as "the perfect summer beer," and discloses the brewer's "proprietary" cold test.

In a new campaign from Vitro for Newcastle Brown ale, difficult situations are somewhat alleviated with a sip of Newscastle which brings about the lighter side of dark. Which, of course, is a very good thing because no one wants to lose two ankles when they can lose just one or have to pay a lawyer a lot of money to get you out of jail.
As with all beer commercials, we're not quite sure how this sells beer. Unless, of course, the brand is trying to target loan defaulters and criminals. Which, come to think of it, may not be a bad approach. After all, people in such situations are under a lot of stress and alcohol is well known to, at least temporarily, alleviate stress. Right. Makes perfect sense now.

Nothing like being unexpectedly slapped upside the head with a commercial message just as you are settling into the joyful rhythm of a cute little video about "did you know?" facts. But that's exactly what happens at the end of this Ogilvy Vietnam-created commercial for stationary brand Thien Long.
Of course the creative beauty of the work is the (fun) fact the video was animated using boxes of stationary items including pens, pencils, staplers, folders and more.
Now, don't get us wrong. This Cirkus-animated video is quite well done and full of fun facts and figures such as the fact an elephant weighs less than the tongue of a blue whale and the longest recorded flight of a chicken is 13 seconds. Or our favorite, the earth gets 100 tons heavier every day because of falling space dust.
For the cool sum of $10 million, Angelina Jolie has signed a deal with Louis Vuitton to front a new global campaign for the fashion brand. The campaign, shot by Annie Liebowitz, will break this summer in print.
Jolie follows in the footsteps of Madonna, Scarlett Johansson, Keith Richards, Uma Thurman and Jennifer Lopez, all of whom have fronted the brand in the past.
Just like toe tapping, nail biting, double door checking and non-laughing, saving money is habitual. Or at least that's what UBank would like us to think. In a new Three Drunk Monkeys-created commercial, UBank focuses on habitual human behavior and in doing so, urges us to think of saving as a habit we should really work on developing. The bank's USaver savings account is supposed to help us do that.

There's nothing we love more than work that casts aside bullshit, leaves the buzzwords at home and just tells it like it is. And that's exactly what this new work from for Duvet & Pillow Warehouse does.
Of course, simply telling it like it is can be boring so this work from Mission is spiced up but poking fun at the thing we all love to poke fun at in this business: the new blowhard CMO who arrives thinking he can change everything when, in fact, nothing at all really needs changing.
So watch these two video and then share with us your stories of the best idiocy you've every witnessed some new arrogant asshole arrived and thought he knew what was best for your client or brand.

Chrysler continues to get its hip on, this time with the addition of music mogul Dr. Dre who will appear in a new campaign - debuting May 4 - for Chrysler's 300 sedan. Joining Dre in the campaign will be Detroit Lions football player Ndamukong Suh and fashion designer John Varvatos.
Of the new campaign, Chrysler CEO Olivier Francious said, "This will be a breakthrough in terms of how you speak about luxury in this country. It doesn't speak about luxury in terms of just aesthetic, but about luxury in terms of the spirit. This is a departure from traditional advertising. I want to be at least as visible as my competitors even without having the same resources."
Dr. Dre follows Eminem's "epic" commercial and ode to Detroit which appeared during the Super Bowl the star did for the brand's 200.
Like a prostitute guaranteeing great service, a new campaign from away-from-home television network GSTV promises offer a five-time makegood versus the typical industry standard one-time makegood for any impressions not delivered. Hmm. Making good five times instead of one. We like.
Continuing down this innuendo-laden road, hyping this "for a good time, call" approach are three print ads, one of which caries the headline, "Growth you can count on." My aren't we milking this for all it's worth. Ooops. Milking. We just dropped innuendo ourselves. Sorry about that.
Leaving that particular innuendo behind, another ad features Miss Michigan USA 2011, Channing Pierce, as a "media mixologist" who creates perfect media mixes. And yet another hypes GSTV's delivery promise comparing at-home TV delivery to a pregnant woman delivering a pineapple to a confused doctor. The tagline reads: "Surprise Delivery? Trust GSTV for a guaranteed, smooth delivery. No recovery needed."
We will give this campaign points for its oddity quotient. A lot of points.
