Bruce Campbell is Old Spice

Bruce Campbell is the man – this paradigm has been long established and is far from a groundbreaking revelation. However, for any and all Bruce Campbell inquiries, should you have them, I humbly defer to Jim, The Movie Whore. Jim is a guy whose Bruce Campbell man-crush knows no limits, and he has been waxing poetic about Mr. Campbell an awful lot lately. As a byproduct of this apparent bromance, I too was inspired to pay homage to the great Bruce Campbell.

Being a man of many talents, the 9th Wonder of the World kills me in his Old Spice commercial spots. These ads have been around for some time now and I’m sure you have seen many of them on TV. My personal favorite features Bruce tickling the ivories to the absolute pleasure of several beautiful, and noticeably younger concubines. Of course age matters not to Bruce the Conqueror, who is as smooth as any self-respecting Old Spice wearing man would be. What makes this commercial an advertising slam dunk is the triple threat of senses that are summoned by the ads perfect execution:

  1. Bruce Campbell
  2. Beautiful Women
  3. and Duran Duran (there I said it, it is a guilty pleasure – mock me I deserve it)

So without further ado, I present you this monumental masterpiece of b-marketing genius…

Seriously, can shameless advertising get any better than this? Wear Old Spice, belt out new wave, have a chainsaw hand, and you will get laid (by several girls at the same time no less)!!!

    Hey now….there’s no shame in liking Duran Duran. I’ve been waiting for over 20 years for Simon LeBon to realize how awesome I dance in my room to “The Reflex” and come marry me.

    I’ve never seen that before, but it was freakin hilarious…especially the part where he picks up his hands and the piano keeps playing.

    Sadly, Old Spice has yet to turn me into a ladies man.

    If you want to be a ladies man grow a fro and drink some Courvoisier and you will be weel on your way sir.

    Merely mentioning fro and Courvoisier has gotten the song, “Pass the Courvoisier” stuck in my head. Thanks though, these are welcomed distractions that I need in order to survive my pitiful existence as a cubicle dweller.
