Lots of people were passing the banned x-box advert around via mail - to the point that some figured it was pure viral.
But it did actually air in the uk, and the 136 complaints echoed in news reports across yahoo , BBC news and even stirred up a good discussion/ thread at metafilter.
boards magazine shows fred & farids film "champagne" here in QT format you know.... The soundtrack really should be heard to get it..... The cracking of teeth bit is a bit creepy.
In this simple story line, a boy is born, shoots out the window, flies across the skies as he matures, and crash lands in his grave. Badabing!
I had the same reaction as someone's point was at MeFi - if life is short why shall I waste it gaming? (then again, I do...)
worth banning or not guys and gals?
Edit to add the ad can be viewed here :
