Diesel commercial

I have no idea what it’s advertising and the idea is not exactly original, but this Diesel online viral titled “SFW—XXX” is silly and entertaining enough to merit a post. The commercial was directed by Keith Schofield of The Viral Factory and the spot’s animation directed by Neil McFarland at Big Animal.

I already saw this nine times today from other sources, which makes me really internet. But I’m obviously not all that internet since that link to Encyclopedia Dramatica (which I never heard of) lead me on a seemingly endless research thread of other internet phenomenon I never heard of. All of a sudden I’ve lost an hour, but at the same time feel like I’ve never even been on the internet before.

The hell? strangely enough I loved it! But what the is it advertising? The safest most amusing fun you could ever have?

Don’t forget the true trailblazer of corn porn – Troll 2 by Claudio Fragasso.

Tony: This will be a strange and scary journey that will last at least 100 years. Remember to refrain from breaking rules 1 & 2 in public.

As for the commercial… I give it an OVER 9000!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! out of 10.

Being reminded of an YTMND that did this sort of thing. It’s slightly creative in my opinion what they could get out of that.

GENIUS! i love it. Such a simple concept but done so well. I wish more commercial campaign briefs gave me this freedom. I think Robert Crumb would be proud

Ahhhh Flash. It is the way of the future.

Uh, yeah. CB linked to ED… I’m surprised the internet didn’t break. The Brew has covered rule 34 though, so I guess it wasn’t the most shocking thing to me.

Odd, funny, and sad; all at the same time.

I’ve seen doctored stills like this for some time, but I’ve never seen video…

Funny and actually hardly SFW!

It looked like Bea Arthur was getting nailed in that one shot. How old is this footage?!

Looks like 80’s stuff, given the hairstyles.

This is SO ripped off from Something Awful. They were doing things like this as far back as 2002

All that clip needs is Louis Armstrong singing “What a Wonderful World.”
