In 2001, Sony commisioned David Lynch to create promos for its new gaming system, the PlayStation 2. I'm guessing Sony wanted an ad showing how awesome PlayStation 2 was going to be. What Lynch gave them was a maze, a disembodied arm, a mummy, and a talking duck. God bless David Lynch.

Ad Nauseum
The new T.V. ad for J. C Penney is a somewhat faithful recreation of The Breakfast Club, which begs the question,"Why?" The target demographic, high school kids, would have been -10 years old when this movie came out in theaters. Maybe it's an ad directed at the parents, because we all know teenagers will wear whatever their parents think is cool. And if it is directed at the parents, are they supposed to forget that it's a movie about social misfits that are trapped in detention? Is that what they want for their kids? Where's Principal Vernon? I'm so confused.
