SerbiaThis print ad from Belgrade Casino was not really appreciated by many women. On the first you see a woman showing her boobs, while the tagline ‘Double Five’ appears. Some found the second one racist because “spade” means black person in the English language. We reckon that the casino just couldn’t care and are happy with all the fuzz!
CanadaPromoting a casino in a cliché way has been done too much, time for a new approach! With this spot they aren’t really promoting gambling, they are using luck as an argument. Anyone can get lucky isn’t it?
Leslie Nielsen, one of the most famous comedians died beginning this week at age 84. He passed away in Florida with his close family. The actor was most known for the movie the Naked Gun but had also other blockbusters behind his name such as: Forbidden Planet (1956) was probably one where he made his breaktrough, and not to forget Mr Magoo.
His trademark was to leave a trail behind of rampage. Every where he passes he always accidentally did something good or extremely funny. Next to movies, Leslie Nielsen featured in many commercials. Advertisers knew what smiles Nielsen could conjure on peoples’ faces and asked him to be a part of it. He not only participated in American commercials but also in European ads..
Check out some of the best ads he made after the jump, typical Nielsen..

AustraliaThis is a great concept, but I can imagine it’s pretty expensive. 2 double page ads won’t be cheap.
But I think everyone who likes poker will like this ad…
