Guy Ritchie’s Football Promo for Nike at Shots Ring Out

Guy Ritchie’s Football Promo for Nike

Published by Brian July 3rd, 2008 in Music Video.

Check this ad that Guy Ritchie did for Nike. This is what commercials should look like. I’m entitling it “A Day/Month in the life of a Footballer”. I’m amazed that the man’s visual style even comes across in his commercial work. Helping along the clip is a little song by SRO favorites, Eagles of Death Metal. If the band somehow made a cameo you could almost call this a music video. The best part of this is when the guy signs the fan’s breast and the girlfriend looks back in disgust. Cut to a pool party with hotter girlfriend. Classic. Music video of the year?

Thanks to Jeff over at Booooooom! for alerting me to this. Oh and if this shitty Youtube version makes you want to piss on it, then here is a higher def version. It’s worth it.

We're so glad that someone has the balls (and most especially the mind) to recognize a Doucher when he sees one. Not to mention our glee at his breaking down the species altogether. [POTW]

It's about damn time L.A. in film got some props thrown its way. It's unfortunate that it took its own paper to do it. It's also unfortunate that Crash is on the list. Why lord, why? [LA Times]

Carrie Bownstein continually kills it with each of her diatribes on music and her life. This is a little older, but see if you don't completely agree with her about your iPod and shuffle. [NPR]

An update on what's really going on with Spike Jonze's Where The Wild Things Are film. It's both bad and good, but not horrible. Keep on keeping on Spike![LA Times]
