AdWars Round 5: Halloween Havoc

Round 5: Woolite’s  “Torturer” vs. Snicker’s “Grocery Store Lady”

DING! DING! Time for another AdWars, this time HALLOWEEN EDITION!  Commercials so spine tingling Wilburn Thomas is still recovering: Kristen screamed from behind her monitor, Guss had nightmares for weeks, and Lawrence was found shaking under his desk (Andy’s still missing).  Who is the creepiest creep terrorizing the nations television screens ( other than Charlie Sheen ) during this spooky season???  At first you will witness the twisted insanity of the Torturer who takes your clothes and… Oh god… that’s GUCCI! Clear winner, right?  But just wait. The second ogre will have you having panic attacks in Kroger parking lots and thinking “Maybe I’ll just Peapod.”
 
Both contestants would most definitely be something to be reckoned with if they started crawling out of your TV ‘The Ring’ style, but which horrific heavyweight scares the shriek out of you?

AdWars: Round 2 “Dog Vs. Dog”

Round 2: Doritos’ “Underdog” vs. Calbee Chips “Consomme Panchi”

We’re back with another round of ferocious competitors. Dogs have always had the bad rap of being a little, how should we say it… hmm… dumb. But at WT we always knew it was all an act. Why? To get buddy-buddy with their humans and one day TAKE OVER THE WORLD! Is it a coincidence that we stumbled across these two similar commercials or are our furry friends planning a conspiracy to steal all our snacks? Watch as each of these Fidos go from cute to cunning, bamboozling any human in their way! Get your paws off our junk food, pups!

Who is the mastermind behind this evil snack snatching scheme? Is it the Doritos Shockin’ Pooch or the tricky Cbree BearDog?

There is only one way to find out. Vote for the Dog that you find victorious! Voting is closed, see the results here.

AdWars: Panda Vs. Panda

Ladies and gentleman, boys and girls, welcome to the first, the best, the unbelievably magnificent, Wilburn Thomas AdWars!!! Where advertisements have to face their arch nemesis and battle it out, TO THE DEATH! WHO-HA-HA-Ha-haaa! Well, maybe its not that dramatic but at least the winner has the satisfaction of knowing that Wilburn Thomas feels they are better than their opponent. What’s more important than that?  AdWars is 30% advertising effectiveness, 30% brand promotion, and 75% hilariousness. Now that the stakes are set, LET THE GAMES BEGIN!

Round 1: Wanchi Ferry’s “House Panda 2 Table” vs. “Polka Panda”
This might seem like a no brainier, with Wanchi Ferry’s big agency production, razzle dazzle special effects and good lighting, but don’t be fooled.  Polka Panda is no punk. Polka comes storming out into the ring with a ONE/TWO punch:  “life-like” costumes and a jingle that takes no prisoners!  This smooth melodic tune may seem innocent, but two hours from now you will find yourself humming this venomous song and may even have random outbursts of “Panda! Panda! Polka Panda!” (Which might take some explaining to your co-workers if they haven’t jumped on the Polka Panda Bandwagon yet).

But don’t let us decide for you.  Watch the mayhem unfold for yourself. Afterward ask yourself one simple question, “Do I want bagged Chinese food or frozen panda deliciousness on a stick?”

Ads take your mark. Ready. Set. FIGHT!
