Heads Roll in Spartacus
For those of you not in the know the Starz original series “Spartacus” is back for its third season. And today, I watched the first episode of the first season.

The Best Movie Posters of 2012
Written by Adrian Curry Published on 28 December 2012 It was hard to whittle down my favorite movie posters to a straight top ten this year. There was no absolute stand-out like Chris Ware’s Uncle Boonmee last year, and the majority of film posters continue to be depressingly rote and uninspired, even though the explosion of DIY illustration has started to make inroads into the world of commercial film promotion. As a symptom of my indecision I have tended to group posters together more than usual; laid out like this the year doesn’t look half bad.
Dunder Mifflin Gets a Super Bowl Ad
I was amazed to read that the fictional paper company from the popular TV show “The Office” has become a real company. It became a real company when NBC teamed up with Quill (part of Staples) to market real Dunder Mifflin paper according to AdFreak.

The brand is Crowdsourcing their first TV ad. Dunder Mifflin has teamed up with crowdsourcing platform Tongal to create the ad. Client: Dunder Mifflin via Quill Agency: Crowdsourcing & Tongal Best, -A.B.
Album Cover Ad Designs?
The Album cover for the for up coming album release from the Yeah Yeah Yeahs titled “Mosquito” has to be one of the crazies pieces of art I’ve seen in a while. Although I have to say, doesn’t this show some similarities to a Megadeath’s 2004 Youthanasia album cover? Check it out below. The Mosquito album cover was designed by South Korean animator Beomsik Shimbe Shim. The design is eye-catching to me because of the agony the Barney looking child seems to be experiencing? It has to be one of the craziest designs ever right? Anyway do you all see the same similarities I do between the two covers? Let…
Paul Bryant Museum Spot
Alabama is a name that has become synonmous with college football dominance. And while the clip below is supposed to be a comedy, there’s a certain amount of believability to it. The University of Alabama’s Paul Bryant Museum created the video in-house and it’s pretty funny, I must admit. The video is titled: “So Many Trophies, So Little Space” you’ll make the connection after watching the video. This is actually the second time I write a post on an ad involving Alabama football in the last coupled of weeks. The first post is: ESPN Roll Tide. These comedic sports ads just capture my interest, I guess. Client: University of Alabama…
