Safety Woman
A school crossing guard is contacted by aliens and given a magic ring and wand in order to save children. Shades of Green Lantern!

Scary PSA
Good Lord! Is this an outtake from a horror film, or a public-service announcement?

Finnish Railways Ad
I think this might be an advertisement for improvements in Finland's Railway System.On the other hand, it could be the trailer for a new Tolkien-style fantasy involving petrified swamp cherubs, the skinnier younger brother of Colonel Sanders, stone giants that become the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, and the Joker's Mother.

New Smokey the Bear PSA
Remember our earlier post, VISION IN THE FOREST, where Smokey the Bear appeared to a young girl during the 1950's?Well, the new Smokey PSA is disturbing in its own fashion, as it promotes the notion that any of us could turn into a bear at any time.
Maybe they were inspired by an earlier version that follows second here.
