Hey Now, You're a Rock Star!
Sometimes Monz is so brilliant, he transcends lunch. Like, take those Nissan Sentra commercials -- "A Film By Mark Horowitz" where young laddy Mark Horor claims that he is documenting his attempt to live out of his new Nissan Sentra for a week. Now, we're not so naive to think this idea war organic: we figured they paid this dude to do this for use in a commercial. Then we saw commercial #2, where Mark is arguing to a gas station cashiere that he deserves a free car wash even though he didn't spend much in gas. The gas station is PLASTERED IN ADS FOR ROCKSTAR ENERGY DRINK. THERE ARE NO OTHER TRADEMARKS/LOGOS VISIBLE. THERE'S EVEN A ROCKSTAR LOGO ON THE BATHROOM DOOR! Obviously this is a commercial tie-in precluding any possibility of a shred of spontanaity in this ad.
"Dude, I knew it was fake from the first five seconds."
Grr. Turkey something or other.
