Bear Grylls on Man vs. Wild eats raw meat
by: Sarah

I’m not a big fan of Bear Grylls on Man vs. Wild, but he does do some note worthy things in his show, like when he eats raw meat.  But I was not impressed with Bear after I saw this YouTube video a couple months ago, .  Honestly after that I don’t know why he even still has a fan base.

Most of Bear’s stunts are  stupid and over dramatic.  I watch Survivorman here and there, at least he doesn’t have a camera crew helping him on his stunts.

This video really grossed me out though.

Fathead And Its Kick Ass Commercial
by: Stuart

I’m not sure how many people have seen this commercial but Fathead must have hired a damn good agency/writer/creative team to do this one.

The style, the tone, the art direction are just fantastic for this product.

Fathead sells giant, larger than life, vinyl decals that you can stick on your wall.

Cool idea for the sports fans that wants to show off pride (as this commercial starts off with) but the commentary and style of the commercial get me.

Very cool mix of tone, imagery and style of “bear fan” combined with fire breathing bear and attitude of host.

Very well done Fathead, great commercial for something I probably never buy, but certainly made me take note.
