Quantcast



This weekend, aside from being self-destructive in Miami, I also purchased a new LCD television. It's gorgeous and honestly I'm tempted to just give up women and devote my life to figuring out how I can copulate with an LCD substrate. Why am I telling you all this? Is it to generate jealousy in an audience prone to violence and crazy stalker-ish tendencies? No, friends, it's to segue into the above commercial!

The first thing that came on my television (in glorious high-definition), was the above commercial. I became so excited for what should be, by all rights, a new Katamari game! Of course, you wait until the end of the commercial for the payoff, and you wind up with the biggest case of azure scrotum since you dated that girl in eighth grade who made a habit of wearing a ring on every finger.

There was also that AIDS commercial that did the same thing:

@ Niero:

Beat you to it, but mine was dubbed with katamari music. :)

Lets hope your LCD tv isn't an awful mess for playing 480i and 240p content (consoles). I'm sure you did research beforehand. ;)

The director had said this was influence by the idea of a snowball rolling down a hill, and claimed to have never heard of Katamari Damacy when designing the ad.

That 'snowball' commercial is so awesome... I love the way they play with the physics of a huge fuck-off ball of odd shaped stuff (a lot like Katamari did). Also, welcome to the world of Tomorrow!

When I saw this on tv once, I had to imagine what it was like being in that thing.

not as awesome as a katamari ball full of aids, but still awesome.

Actually, I thought that was the video you put up there. Enjoy, balls.

I know the guy who dubbed the AIDs commercial with the Katamari commercial. Ya, that's all.
