Witness the future of online battery retail, in this evocative advertisement.

Very good.Can't get that catchy tune out of my head.

Thats not great, the funny voice is poor enough to take me straight out of the action.
And the adjective and animal joke is ok but it's a 5 second gag done over 2 minutes.
And rather than just make the joke you explain it over and over.
The trick I guess would be to do the smegma camel advert and see if people get it.

I take your point about the voice, it's a bit much in hindsight.
I didn't think we did the 'adjective + animal joke' for more than one 5-second gag though, the rest of it is mainly about how shit the business model is, so I'm not sure what you mean by 'just explain it over and over'.
