Its kind of unfair that its American-only competition.
ReplyDeleteHave a Slusho shirt and fake Slusho cup and all, even speak Japanese and have an awesome idea for an ad but cant make it. Bloody Slusho!
I'm sure you could find someone here to submit it for you.
ReplyDeleteI've made a transcription of the ad here: http://docs.google.com/Doc?id=dr8tv23_0dxk3s4
ReplyDeleteAlso, check out the Force Majeure clause in the Official Rules. Very revealing.
What's going on in that weird flash of images at the end of the ad when the voice says "you can't drink just six?" There is no pause button, so it's hard to tell. As far as I can gather there is a picture of a smiling monkey holding a flag of some sort.
ReplyDeleteThe Force Majeure clause in the contest is a standard clause in any competition. There's nothing "Very Revealing" about it.
ReplyDeleteThe contest page is the only page on the website that doesn't have music. Also, and this is probably grasping at straws, but under the contest details, they show a fish with a sheriff's hat which could mean the monster is getting justice. Blueberry Zoom is wearing a mortar and seems to be reenacting Hamlet.
ReplyDeleteMaybe something in Hamlet is a clue?
These are the things that one thinks of in the midst of studying for finals and writing two french compositions.
i'm doing this
ReplyDeleteThis commercial screams FORESHADOWING!
ReplyDeleteSuper human strength, going crazy, hallucinating...
Yay, 1 Month 12 Days!
*Sits and waits patiently.*
If you keep Replaying it to were he says "you cant drink just six"
ReplyDeleteKeep replaying the SIX part
THe Mooses Nose looks very similar to a monster which is wierd and it looks like the slusho Characters such as the monkey and the flavors get seperated by a FIre Wall... also its a Monkey Holding a blue Flag with the Cheese on it

ReplyDeleteAustin, to the best of my knowledge, companies can alter the Force Majeure clause to suite their own needs, i.e., a mining company might add "geological risk", or a governmental organization might add "official election", etc. Obviously, all of the cases you'd expect in a Force Majeure clause are there, but there's definitely a few unconventional ones that Slusho! decided would suit their needs...
ReplyDeleteP.S. The "eli" 3 posts up is not me... just clearing that up. lol
ReplyDeleteWhat happened to the cute little video?
ReplyDeletemoved it to it's own post
ReplyDeleteConsidering an Alienware Laptop is exactly what I want for Christmas, I might force myself to come up with something.. It's worth a try.
ReplyDeleteanyone else find it interesting that "man-made epidemic of health of other means" is listed in there?
ReplyDeleteCraig (a few posts up) had a good idea - screen capping the video right at the end. The problem is that the provided (embedded) video is not a good enough source.
ReplyDeleteI tried it with the biggest available video on the Slusho! website (the HD one is currently NOT working / unavailable).
As seen on screen:

The "monster" looking snout of the moose in the back ground wasn't the first thing that caught my eye - it was the red "claw marks" that slowly begin to appear as you go from the rocks up towards where the Slusho! flavor robots are. They are red in the original, or a blue-teal in the inversion.
I don't know what to make of any of it (the video, I mean). The talking moose, the cheese flag, the guy losing it (maybe he drank 7 instead of just 6?).
Cheers to Dennis. I've E-mailed you a few times and finally decided to make an actual post on your fine blog about "Cloverfield".
They look like bloody Duck prints MIcheal ^ but also it just looks like there tracks leading over to the Flavor robots
ReplyDeleteThere's another contest where you can win money, T-shirt, recognition and bragging rights at www.cluechaser.com. Contest starts Dec 7th
