Phistophicles sells his soul in the name of branded content and viral marketing (which interestingly enough didn’t even exist in ancient Greece!) as he not-so-cleverly shills for the movie, “Watchmen.” The great (relatively speaking) mind also weighs in on the stimulus package, super powers, performance enhancing drugs, and inter-office romance. Take that, Plato!
Leave it up to Bryan Buckley to direct one of this year’s most buzzed about Super Bowl advertisements. Starring heavy hitting has-beens MC Hammer and Ed McMahon, the spot was nothing short of (you knew it was coming)… pure comedy gold! The New York Post called it “one of the most memorable ads,” and Jon Stewart couldn’t help but point out its relevance on The Daily Show.
