  • Wissam Kamal’s Datsun Ad – A Total Win!

    I saw the new Datsun ad featuring Wissam Kamal and his father a couple of days ago and totally loved it! Knowing that Datsun was phased out in 1986 before launching again in 2013, they totally nailed it with their reference to the 80s.

    On another note, I think it’s cool to see brands collaborating this way with people who got famous through social media such as Wissam. Kudos to that!

  • It’s Christmas and Lebanon is Calling!

    In my humble opinion, Demco easily wins the best Christmas ad this year!

    In the same spirit of the ad during they made for the US presiential elections, they’re still reaching out for the Lebanese expats to convince them of returning back to their home country following some breakthroughs like the election of a new president and the formation of a new government, and while the previous one was touching, the new ad reaches even deeper everyone of us.

    We all have loved family members living abroad, and most of those are not even thinking of returning. But come to think of it, while we have a lot of reasons to curse this country everyday, we have a hundred more to love it! I personally had the opportunity to go live and work elsewhere, but I chose to stay here because I’m too attached to my city to leave it.

    When I watched the ad I couldn’t but think of my brother who lives in the UAE and how much my parents and I would all love him to come live among us again…!

    We all deserve to reunite with our loved ones, at least during the happy holiday season if not for a lifetime, because as the ad at the end says, it is simply not the same without them!

  • Nescafé Acting A Little Naughty?

    Is it my dirty mind only or does this new ad by Nescafé get a bit suggestive towards the end?

  • Very old Abou Fouad “Yes 3 in 1” ads

    How awesome are these vintage ads of Yes 3 in 1 featuring Abou Fouad? I couldn’t stop playing them over and over!

  • What’s Lebanese about these rolls?

    We actually have sambousek, r2a2at, fatayer, and some others, but there’s definitely nothing Lebanese about these banana, peas and cheese stuffed rolls that are currently being offered by Domino’s Pizza India!

  • Beirut Duty Free – La Casa del Habano ad

    The girls should have been topless with a QR code on each boob. Fard marra ya3neh.

  • Rymco’s suggest an arrest – Another lame copycat?

    I’d love to read Brofessional Review‘s take on this. Check the below video made more than a year ago by Nokia Lebanon along with the other ones found here, and compare them to Rymco’s suggest an arrest.

    Thansk to @_ant1_ for the tip

  • Dracula loves the Lebanese

    GEICO by the way is a US auto insurance company known for its advertisements stressing how it takes a 15 minutes call to save 15% on car insurance using different characters.

  • Would you suggest an arrest to Nissan?

    The guys at Nissan – Rymco are claiming they’ll be trying to reduce drunk driving throughout this month by allowing you to report intocixated people so they would come get them home in a Nissan while someone sober drives their cars safely. But don’t expect the hot police women to show up everytime you report someone!
