This might be the funniest and most awesome web advertisement ever. Produced using Macromedia Flash Video,  Superman teams up with Jerry Seinfeld for an Internet based ad for American Express.  The four-minute piece, entitled "A Uniform Used to Mean Something," was co-written by Seinfeld and directed by acclaimed film director Barry Levinson, is absolutely hilarious. In addition, the interactive web site is amazing. Great stuff. 

Zoom-zoom-zoom, yes it is a Mazda commercial but it is a cool piece of Internet video. And, for the size of the file, this looks great. It's funny to boot..

It sound sort of lame but why would anyone want to watch television ads on the Internet? Well some are pretty cool and creative. Plus by watching the ads when you want to, for as long as you want to, you have control. You can choose to poison your own mind - you can choose whether or not to be subjected to the urge to buy stuff you probably don't want or really need.   It is your choice to be a slave of consumerism... By the way, check out Adbusters for a great anti-advertising web site. Also check out Black Thunder at the Illegal Art site for a great parody of political videos.
