On TV. In Japan.

A blog featuring Japanese television commercials is the best idea ever for a blog. American advertisers who ponder how to keep the public's attention might do well to take notes.

I feel compelled to track this down, if only to see Mel Gibson's special brand of personal madness applied to car salesmanship. Arnold Schwarzenegger's Japanese ad spot holds a special place in my heart, but he may have to do battle with Mel to keep it.

There's also an ad with Keifer Sutherland about halfway down the page I linked. That one's not particularly cracked-out, but it makes me happy because I used to grab a CalorieMate whenever I forgot about breakfast, and now I can imagine those lonely morning outings livened up by Jack Bauer's survival of multiple certain deaths and his subsequent torture of the vending machine. For great justice.
