So some ad agency had the Muller people come in and say:
“Okay, so KITT is driving down the street and he parks all-awesome like, but a cop gives him a ticket, so this Muller truck nearby is actually a Transformer and it turns into a robot and it eats the cop, but then it spits out Yogi Bear because the Muller Transformer has turned the cop into Yogi. Yogi is happy so he dances down the street, but he runs into a crowd of rude businessmen, so the Muller Transformer spits out a rain of giant fruit and that turns them into Mr. Men and Pikmin and things. So they all dance happily but suddenly they see that a crane is about to knock down a small house in between two skyscrapers! Luckily, Muttley is flying his plane which has a giant hammer made from a giant Muller yogurt tin attached to it, and knocks the crane into the sky, where it dissolves into a rain of coloured birds. Then it looks like rain – oh no! But then another giant container of Muller is opened, and the yogurt forms giant hands which scoop up the rainclouds into a ball, then twist that ball into a rainbow with a smiley face on it. And scene.”
Why don’t I have that job, and the hallucinogenics that come with it?

Don’t forget what looks like someone on the order of Atom Ant holding the giant Mueller container that forms giant hands.
Bwhahaha! I had the exact some “wtf?” moment when I first saw this. Damn effective advertising though – at least it made me pay attention.
MGK – thoughts on the Avengers trailer?!
This was my reaction also.
What in the what now?
WTF does not even come closely to what this..advertisment? yes Advertisement…is!!
What? indeed
I don’t take drugs often, but when I do I take a 35mm film print of this advert, grind it to dust and sniff it through monopoly money.
I would so love to see a Don Draper style pitch for this ad to the clients.
I see nothing unusual about this.
Dammit! I KNEW those bastards would steal my Durex ad idea. Knew it. I have got to stop hanging out on the opium buses.
Advertisers are still trying to figure out the web, but there seem to be two aspects that they’ve identified as part of a successful meme–nostalgia for existing characters, and WTF-ness. This ad is actually a rather cynical combination of those two aspects.
I read your summary and thought you were just joking.
You forgot about the robot unicorns pulling the yogurt chariot.
And THAT’S why you don’t eat Yogurt and watch the Simpsons “Mister Sparkle” commercial before bed.
Why KITT?
Mirror ball unicorns.
Mluh?
I see this entire video as a 90-second response to a reporter asking an Occupy Wall Streeter, “In an ideal world, what would you like to see happen as a result of your protest?”
