+ Tomorrow is Super Bowl Sunday. And it will be advertising's big moment to shine. One reason for the lack of posts here is due to the fact that I've been working over at AdLand compiling probably one of the most comprehensive Super Bowl Ad spoilers on the net. If you want to know what to expect, check out Super Bowl XXXIX Advertising Bonanza.

As usual, AdLand will have all the ads posted and it will bring the Claymore Project to cover 32 years of Super Bowl advertising. Pretty impressive.

+ Milan bans da Vinci parody ad for French fashion house Marithé and François Gribaud.

The Istituto di Autodisciplina Pubblicitaria stated: "One of the women apostles is kissing the naked torso of a man, which just makes the imitation more offensive. As does the use of Christian symbols like the dove, the chalice and the position of the fingers of the female Christ."

If you head to the link, you can see the "offensive" ad. The thing is I don't see anyone kissing anyone in the ad. So I'm not sure what the heck they are on about. Also, I don't get the position of the fingers of the female Christ bit either. But, the fact that they state someone is kissing the man who is representing Judas, when they aren't, makes them look stupid. I'm not saying they can't object to the ad, but if you're going to do that, make your objections about things that are actually there. ;-)
