Well I guess I am, maybe it is the thought of watching a 90 minute long Thai soap that stops me flocking to the cinema to watch Thai shows. 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Bluespunk Posted July 10, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted July 10, 2013 So she is apologising for being a good actress, in that her fans thought she was really angry?

Jasun Posted July 10, 2013 Share Posted July 10, 2013 (edited) 'You're not yourself when you're hungry" is the creative strategy behind the Snicker's campaign. So in its ads the angry person is always portrayed by another actor. This is either a major marketing screw-up, or genius.

Popular Post arthurboy Posted July 10, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted July 10, 2013 Question: Do Snickers want people talking about this, or not? Answer: Yes, they do. Marketing, pure, simple and effective. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lubbkis Posted July 10, 2013 Share Posted July 10, 2013 Ummm? Presumably this story is part of the advertising strategy? That's why it's called viral advertising. It's now reaching ex-pats who not only never watch Thai TV but spend a lot of time whingeging on TV about how bad it is. It reaches the parts other advertising strategies cannot reach. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my humble opinion, maybe there was a chance to apologize immediately after ad shooting. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are 65 million people in this country. I didn't know that famous only means globally or that it means that if YOU haven't heard of them, they must not be. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abhisit was the first Geordie to become Prime Minister of Thailand. Of course it's a myth that there's any such thing as 100% Thai.

The brand's ongoing marketing campaign in Thailand features visibly agitated Thai celebrities throughing tantrums only to be placated by a chocolatey panacea. Famously short tempered actor Somchai "Tao" Khemklad participated in several similar ads last year.The recut ad, which was recently released: Full story: http://bangkok.coconuts.co/2013/07/10/snickers-ad-backfires-actress-forced-apologize-- Coconuts Bangkok 2013-07-10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
