    It's an overused approach (and Honda's is still the best being the original) but I like it...

    well, all I meant about the (un)originality of it was this -
    Controversy arose, however, when the producers of the 1987 documentary The Way Things Go accused the team behind Cog of plagiarising their work.
    But I guess wieden+Kennedy (like allll ad agencies) 'repurpose' work for the good of their bank accounts ;)

    Yes I got what you meant really, that's why I made the comment... I can't remember who it was but I saw an ad on TV the other night that was 'reinterpreting' the approach and thought to myself "that old chestnut" ...got quite annoyed with them! :happy:

    The Ok Go Rube Goldberg machine is my personal favourite by far. It really blows the sorry Honda ad out of the water :D
