I think a lot of Sony's weirder advertising was very intentionally inciting controversy similar to Bennetton advertising in 80's and 90's.



Its still obviously a hilariously dumb move for a video game company of all things.

The talk a couple pages back about the weird rear end print adverts that gaming companies loved to put out reminded me of this thing.



In case you can't read that, the text in the corner repeats "I will not mate outside my species". So umm buy a Sega Dreamcast so you too can gently caress a fish?

Still can't decide if this one was dumb or genius.

It should be noted this is the updated, less copy-right infringing version of his Cashman persona. The first time he tried to run these ads he wore a fake Supeman outfit, resulting in a fair bit of legal trouble. Since I cant find the original ad heres him being interviewed in the costume. Used to go by this guys place on my way to and from high school so its pretty hard to forget.

It's time for Modesty Blaise to finally get the films she deserves.

Not sure if you're aware but there are actually a bunch of Modesty Blaise movies, I just watched the one from 1966 a few nights ago:
