"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

Carlton Draught do some awesome ads - The black and white "Made from Beer" ones were bloody brilliant, as was the canoe one. And you can get it for $8 a jug. Bonus.

[EDIT]Ah.

It's not the canoe one, but still pretty good. :D

:lol: Nice

Since we're on the topic of beer ads. Does anyone remember that ad, that had a big glass of beer (could have been Guinnes or something that looked like it) in the foreground, and a guy dancing to some funky music around the beer in the background (the setting was a beach IIRC) ?
The ad was in b/w IIRC, and there was an awesome christmas version of it, with Rudolph as the dancer.

I've been trying forever to find that clip.

It was a guiness advert, IIRC..... might be hard to get, I think the ad company were sued by a student who they'd blatantly ripped the idea off of.

Axem - Sorry to post again when I said I was leaving for good, but something was nagging me. I don't want to say it in a way that shames the campaign but I think we can all agree it is actually.. incomplete. It is missing... Voice Acting.
Quanto - I for one would love to lend my beautiful singing voice into this wholesome project.
Nuclear1 - I want a duet.
