This thread reminds me of Shaughnessy's book and the part where he speaks about design, fame and plumbers.

The commercial is super long because they book-end programs with commercials in western Europe, rather than beating you down with short, back to back commercials every 7–10 minutes as done in the U.S.
At any rate, I thought it was ace, although I have no issue with people thinking and posting otherwise as long as it's done respectfully...

Man this rocked my day.
I have "Build" phases. I'll see some new work and that'll make me want to review all the old work. Not sure what it is about it that sucks me in.

The fault of Build's awesome work

I'm a fan of his and it's a good commercial match-up and interesting to see him working... but I think the final product was a poor representation of his talents.

I'd have gone to some twatty bar in Shoreditch and gathered an exciteable bunch of trendy drinkers to come outside to join in our body art fun contest, (sponsored by R.Whites Lemonade and Bombay Sapphire) ... they would all have been given PRITT® MARKERS and would draw little lightening bolts or skulls or bombs or whatever else was deemed ironically cool at the time all over their spindly, rayban wearing girlfriends, then they would all be lined up at the end like an NYPD meets American Apparel identity parade and the camera would pan past the beautiful people in their homespun 'art'. Then drips would fill the screen and the Pritt logo would be stencilled in urging you to spend your hard earned designer cash on their FANTASTIC products – this weeks vinyl toy will just have to wait. (cut to little outtake of a kubrick toy as a tear drips down its cheek).
Instant fucking win for me.

I think some people get me wrong, when I ask for "showing your work" it's not because liking or disliking anyone's work and claiming it.
but read that : "Holy fuck that's embarrassing. I'm sure the cheque was nice though, anal rape costs a lot huh."
or that : ", it's out of date rubbish for backwards wannabe trendwhores and if it's meant to be selling product, well it fails there too. If you're going to rely on style over content, make sure there's some style, and not this played out crap. I'd call this 'braindead' advertising for the braindead. "
that's not feedback nor criticism, it's just hating someone else work.
It's quite easy to act like that hidden behind an anonymous email adress.I have nothing against people who say it's not that good and then explain. but here I don't see anything else than a kid bashing a work, just because he can.
And QBN is a design forum, i don't see what's so weird about showing your work.

Once again I fail to be impressed with Build's lack of creativity and talent, maybe its sheer jealousy at his level of fame or maybe his status precedes him so much these days that I feel the work fails to live up to it.
I was impressed with his stuff 3 or 4 years ago but nowadays it all seems very much the same, boring, overdone crap.
I understand that he has a brand and an image and if someone hires him they know what they are going to get, but I really do fail to see anything creative or innovative from his work

- Sound Opinion. Don't hide. but create something to rival him.dopepope
- does my mom have to become a designer to formulate her opinion on why she doesn't want to buy juice?neue75_bold
- dopepope: even if I wasn't a graphic designer I think my opinion would still be valid.set
- 75. I'm not following you mate...set
- he is saying the same as you.skt
- ah, I get it now. :Dset
- Hedge, I didn't say it wouldn't be valid. but it reads a touch bitter, and that could stem from a frustration in your own work.dopepope
- and that's just my opinion.dopepope

Its interesting when Max was asked politely how he would approach this brief differently, all we got was some bullshit comedic scenario full of obvious cliches! WOW...yeah, great deflective mechanism, but we still didn't get anything remotely intelligent or to the point from you. I only ask this question as usually when someone has such passionate, dare I say aggressive views, most "Creatives" would be brimming with alternative ideas to bring to the table, alas, all we get is a cheap and obvious gag!
I don't think we need to see his work, I think his attitude and overall negative view of the creative industry says it all.Obviously it OK not to like something, there are plenty of stuff that gets linked on here that I don't like, however this is because its not to my taste, not because its crap...there is a big difference, and why would I feel the need to unleash an abusive rant about it, other than trying to attention seek amongst my peers.
I noticed someone added "DULL", next to someones post...Dull, WTF! You mean a sensible opinion made in a design thread on a design forum? If I wanted Fun, I'd call up my fellow human beings ( commonly known as mates) and go to the pub, not sit behind a screen and be abusive to people I've never met.
No...Im not Build, Builds Mum, Builds Gran, Head of Pritt or any other comical derivative, I'm just a regular designer saddened at home QBN has slowly spiraled into a playground for abusive losers!

I agree, there's no clever idea here or any new original style, it's not even 'cool' anymore, it's out of date rubbish for backwards wannabe trendwhores and if it's meant to be selling product, well it fails there too.
If you're going to rely on style over content, make sure there's some style, and not this played out crap. I'd call this 'braindead' advertising for the braindead.

you heard, I think it's shit and the whole thing is entirely parasitic from conception to implementation right through to distribution.
pretty picture wheeeeeee!!!
