'RoboCop' Teaches Abusive Soccer Parents A Lesson You know the type. You can hear them a mile away. And you want to run right over to them and punch them in the mouth. Or you want to run over to their kid and rescue them from a lifetime of verbal abuse. Yes, The Soccer Parent. Loud. Abusive. Idiotic. Moronic. Well, the UK's Football (cuz that's what they call it over there) Association with help from Man+Hatchet created a video which aims to diffuse parental rage at soccer games. Actor Defends Role in Horrific Samsung Video Everyone's all abuzz about a recent Samsung video that details the benefits of the brand's 840 EVO solid-state hard drive. The ad, which is said to feature "possibly the world's worst actors," aims to recount the trials and tribulations of owning a slow computer and how the 840 EVO can speed things up. Women Drool For Huge Celebrity Packages in Benefit Cosmetics Ad In a new Benefit Cosmetics video entitled Real Men Don't Fake It, a collection of men proudly flaunt their packages for the ladies. And while each of the men proudly flaunt their bulging manhood, the ladies become increasingly eager. Except what they are eager for is something entirely other than what you might expect. As the women ogle the men's packages -- which seem to grow in size as the video progresses -- the men reach into their pants as if to offer up their porn star-sized members to the excited ladies. Except what they ultimately offer is humorous commentary on what women truly find exciting. This Bed Delivers an Erection of Another Kind Certain things happen in bed. Sometimes they happen with a partner in bed and sometimes they happen when you are alone in bed. Sometimes these things involve sleep. Other times they involves, well, things other than sleep. But, at some point, these things have to stop and you actually have to get out of your bed in order to start your day. Alas, some people have great difficult with this. This MINI Countryman Will Display Your Vine Videos As part of its Not Normal campaign, MINI has launched MINI Art Beat, a "synthesized digital design, music and interactive social media" effort that has resulted in a MINI Countryman custom-fitted with high-resolution LEDs. MINI Art Beat gives fans a chance to stream a live animation directly onto the MINI as it takes its night cruises - so both urban passers-by and online viewers can watch. Bebo Relaunches With 'Ballsy' Spoof Video Established in 2005 by Michael and Xochi Birch, sold to Yahoo! in 2008 for $850 million and recently bought back by its founders for $1 million, Bebo is back. Yesterday, the site relaunched with a "ballsy" video featuring founder Michael Birch. Vitamin Water Makes Light of Homeless With CollegeHumor Prank Video On behalf of Vitamin Water, CollegeHumor orchestrated a prank in which a panhandler enters a subway car and begins do quite the opposite of begging for money. He regales subway passengers with stories of his increasing success and the fact that he's not holding an empty latte cup to fill with money, he just refuses to litter. The humor escalates to the point the entire subway car is giving the man high fives. The stunt is part of the brand's Make Boring Brilliant campaign. The boring, in this case, is, of course, the lowly panhandler seen all day every day as one makes one's way through the city. What's not boring, of course, is that fact that some of these panhandlers are good folks who have simply fallen on bad fortune and are desperately doing whatever they can to survive. We're not sure poking fun at that situation is the best marketing move a brand could make. This Incredibly Boring McCann Germany Video is Voiced by an Englishman and Features A Photographer Who Can't Comb His Hair Well the headline pretty much sums up what you'll see in this McCann Germany case study video featuring work they did for Studious Reisen, an entity that aims to highlight the hidden and lost treasures of the world. We're sure the effort is worthy. We're just having trouble getting excited about a campaign that aims to "awaken" a person's "inner travel." Mercedes-Benz Wants to Have Sex With Automotive Servicemen Cheesy is really the only word that can be used to describe this Mercedes-Benz Service song sung by Patricia Meeden. Cheesy still photography. Cheesy lyrics that proclaim double entendres like a 40-year-old woman trying to pick up an 18-year-old dude. And cheesy strategic thinking from a brand one normally associates with upstanding elegance, not veiled bathroom humor from a 14-year-old boy telling "smell my finger" jokes to his best friend between classes. Toshiba and Intel Offer Up Moustache and Unibrow Hilarity With 'The Power Inside' Social Film Going in a completely different direction than they did with Intel + Toshiba's The Beauty Inside, Pereira & O'Dell is out with The Power Inside, a hilarious new content marketing film directed by Will Speck and Josh Gordon and starring Harvey Keitel.
