The clip called 'FIRESTORM' is pretty super cool and we think that this technology and effects are just screaming out for integration within an event experience el'pronto monchombos....]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This will be one of our shortest posts ever.</p>
<p>Cue applause.</p>
<p>We have nothing more to say about this clip other than it seriously rocks in an amusing comic-geek kinda way.</p>
<p>Sometime ago The Walt Disney Company acquired Marvel and almost all of their super heros (except for like the cool ones like Spiderman, Superman, and Batman).</p>
<p>With that in mind we thought we&#8217;d belatedly celebrate this union with this clip that for some odd reason always seems to draw laughter from the more disturbed members of our team. And laughter is good right?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Every year the American&#8217;s stage the Super Bowl&#8230;</p>
<p>I understand there is some Gridiron football involved and apparently today the New Orlean&#8217;s Saints had a famous win&#8230; but for the rest of the western world, the superbowl is all about the sideshow event &#8211; commercials.</p>
<p>This year was not any different and the Forbes website have been kind enough to provide a digital selection of some of these television advertising commercials for you to review, consider, muse upon and hopefully enjoy. Oh, and buy their stuff!</p>
<p>Which ad worked best for you?</p>
<p>And importantly which ad worked best for the company commissioning it.</p>
<p>We think the E*Trade one wins hands down. The &#8216;wolfie&#8217; online brought a smile to our face and the line about his airplane travelling pal dancing style being described as&#8230; &#8216;haunting&#8217; made us laugh out loud. Instant classics.</p>
<p>The Doritos ad with the nimble dog venting vengence ran a relatively close second. Hmmm&#8230; man&#8230; there&#8217;s so many people I&#8217;d love to collar and bark at&#8230; jus&#8217; sharin&#8217;.</p>
<p>The not-so-great ads? There were a number.</p>
<p>Keep an eye out for the Dr Pepper Cherry flavoured soft drink (&#8216;soda&#8217; in American-speak). It wasn&#8217;t the worst but it was far from good. Even with Gene Simmons from Kiss in it&#8230; or because of it &#8211; it was just plain lame. Pity.</p>
<p>Anyhoo, feel free to check out the superbowl 2010 ad&#8217;s below and see what you think.</p>
