Listen... watching willy wonka was weird alone, this just takes it to a new level
-
He should do an entire theory on what happened to little Lads mom, because as he says "mommy made me do the little lad dance, now mommy's gone."
-
The “herding cats” commercial was funny because it took a saying, “like herding cats,” to its literal conclusion. And because anyone who’s spent time around a cat knows the idea is absurd. It wasn’t just weird for the sake of weirdness.
-
Starburst needs to bring berries and creams back, they would make a lot of money off of it.
-
You got the lad himself for this. As a older zoomer, seeing people who were born AFTER Berries and Cream happened discover it for the first time makes me feel so old
-
Speaking of Oddvertising...Japan has definitely perfected that art for years haha
-
The entire earth: man ads are so strange Japan: AMATUERS!
-
i always thought the puppy baby monkey thing was just a figment of my messed up imagination, i'm both happy and terrified that it's real
-
Is willy wonka's candy forest room actually possible to create, a question that will forever haunt me
-
With the amount of people who like “retro” stuff, how much attention you think a company would get if they aired an old commercial?
-
When he said "hoops Mcelroy" I nearly died. Justin was right. This is what he will be famous for.
-
I can't believe Justin "Hoops" McElroy will forever be known as the necromancer that brought back the Little Lad. Incredible.
-
Let’s not forget: “If you’re playing to win here’s a brand new soap for you. Nope, I was wrong, this is a commercial for fruit. Nope, I was right, it’s a really weird commercial for soap!”
-
When the commercials are so haunting, that these are the perfect candies to be giving out on Halloween.
-
The fact that they added a Philippine AD made me excited, happy, anxious and weirded out
-
People can say what they want about weird ads, but Old Spice commercials are masterpieces
-
jack fervor is such an icon, returning to a role that they did like 14 years ago, truly an inspiration
-
The fact you actually got Little Lad in this is some fourth wall breaking insanity... Edit: How did this become the second most liked comment on this video guys please what is happening I'm between OwO and Just Some Guy without a Mustache and I'm scared of this power 😨
-
That RC Cola commercial was definitely bizarre, but I also thought it was really cool and super creative!
-
That learning + weird = better learning is the exact reason I love oversimplified so much and remember so much more about the topics on his channel than I do with the topics I learned in school.
