It’s identical. To a campaign for McDonalds. Out of DDB (Auckland). 12-13 years ago.

Is it bad that there is a Hungry Jacks right where it is shot at the Central Station location? I just think Hungry Jacks.
Punters will love it. Who cares. It’s retail.
@ Um:
Is it bad that I used to drive by that house but don’t recognise the old couple? I’m sure someone else lived there.
@oh look
Mate, if I were you I’d be burying that turd, not regurgitating it to remind everyone how mediocre you are.
I quite like the garage sale ad. I reckon it’s kind of cute. Plus the brunette lady is rather easy on the eye too.
Dull and uninteresting, especially the statue spot.
some one kill me now
I think to knock this work, given how difficult fast food retail is, is really wierd. I’m a CD of a moderately successful agency and I know how hard it is to get work up. When I see this level of critisim, it makes me wonder just how good the work each of you do is? I mean, it must be great, right? Why don’t you tell us all the great campaigns you’ve done? There are just so many breaking every week in Australia, surely you’ve written a lot of them?
Little junior cunts.
Think they are cool. More fun to watch than prices are down.
what makes me laugh on this blog are dickheads who ask the critics to reveal their identity when they themselves remain anonymous. Btw its called bestads not shiteads, so if they are average and similar to previous ads for the same brand or category thats cool we’ve all done them, just dont post them here…
no wonder the team who did this went back to saatchis
2 things –
1. Nobody chooses to be posted on CBB – You get pulled out of Lynchy’s hat.
2. It seems that Paul Middleditch will do anything nowadays
Certainly didn’t see the ads as being earth shattering , but they did the job , I know exactly what they were saying , so when I’m broke I know where I’ll go . Not sure why anyone would bother to knock them?
