I think it’s a hilarious and engaging video that also neglected to give viewers any reason to buy, eat, or lust after Cadbury milk chocolates. It is gloriously viral, in that after the transmission RNA there’s no ‘there’ inside of the packet. It’s conversation without content. I’ve penned a poem in its honor (well, sort of) at Dim Bulb, if you’d like to check it out: http://dimbulb.typepad.com/my_weblog/2007/12/post.html

Waste Of Money -
makes no sense
no comedic value
its not as if they have a competition to do with the gorilla or are advertising the plight of endangered gorillas, come to think of it what a wasted opportunity!

Oi, just to let you know.
Supposidly Phil Collins is the drummer.
And the advert was intended to entertain, because instead of telling us joy, the showed us joy.
It’s also very clever due to the fact that every time I hear the song, or see a gorilla it makes me think of the song or chocolate.
Now its a 2 way promotion for as much as I’m concerned.
It’s not funny no.
But it’s entertaining.
Safe.

It’s a good advert, it may a bit “strange” but the majority of people recognise it and like it, therofor I would conclude that the media department have done a good job.

Gorillas & chocolate related–not at all! But, does it stick in your mind? Hell yes! It’s rare to see modern-day companies taking such marketing risks. We don’t have enough businesses doing this with their advertising campaigns. Nearly 99.9% of the stuff out there is ripped off from another advertising campaign. Take the apple silhouette campaign that started a few years back. That was EXTREMELY innovative for the time and was able to boost apple sales by some godly amount. Today we have oodles of copy-cat companies trying to benefit from the success of apple’s innovation. While this commercial is no apple commercial, it’s definitely tipping the scale on innovative and entertaining–isn’t that what we as American’s love?

Ive never seen an advert that has made me go “I must buy that”, but that doesn’t stop me enjoying a great add like the cadbury’s gorilla even though I can’t stand cadbury chocolate!
