Bruce Lee plays ping pong for Nokia commercial

No Comments »

Nokia recently put out 2 ads for their Nokia N96 featuring the legendary Bruce Lee. The first of the two commercials shows Bruce Lee thumping two opponents in a game of ping pong. They took an old recording and with some compositing trickery, made it look like he’s actually playing ping pong.  When I first saw it, I thought it was actual lost footage; it’s so well done. Of course, it’s not real, but they did an amazing job of making it look as seamless as it gets.

Nokia hit the nail on the head with these commercials and to no surprise, they have become the latest addition to the viral hall of fame. I mean, how could you go wrong? Have a commercial with the legendary Bruce Lee using his insane nunchucks skills to sell phones! Whoever came up with this idea has definitely got a promotion coming.

Check out the Ping Pong version first, then scroll down and click through to watch the other commercial. Prepare to be amazed.

Hilarious and creative Reebok ad campaign. I never get tired of watching this clip. Conventional ads are so boring.
