Anthropomorphism
Follies of the Madmen #203
Turkish Airlines - Wingo TVC - English from Robotika Films on Vimeo.
I don't know... That bird reminds me of too many other incompetent fictional birds. Especially the klutzy Launchpad McQuack. I'm not feeling in good hands--or wings--here.

Charley Says
In this dangerous world, God help all kids who don't have a child-sized cat friend with feline Tourette's Syndrome.
So popular, they have been collected on DVD.
Not to be confused with this other "Charlie says!"

Follies of the Madmen #200
50 Jahre Orion (TV Ad) from MovieBrats Films & Animation on Vimeo.
200 dumb and/or silly ads! How did we get here? What did we learn? Where are we going? Will the public ever wise up? The answers remain enigmatic.
But this over-the-top ad seems his fitting for such a milestone.

Weird Snowmen
Evil snowmen is a horror trope that had never occurred to me. But I'm sure it's in one Stephen King novel or another already.
Anthropomorphic icicles is another notion I was blissfully unfamiliar with. Can they really run far enough and fast enough to the north to escape Spring?

Dr. Rich Lather
'Dr. Rich Lather' commercial - Englewood Hospital from Kurt Ritta on Vimeo.
See, here's what I don't understand: when the two hands are shown scrubbing towards the end, are they the same intelligent face-bearing hands depicted earlier, bashing their facial features against one another till they all fall off? I mean, that's the logic of this nightmare world, right? But if so, where's the screaming?

Ranger Rick
Is Ranger Rick more ghastly and scary than Woodsy Owl? Your call!
You just know, of course, when he's seated at that computer he's surfing for furry porn.
