sleepwalker Coca Cola super bowl 2010 ad - Super ripoff?

[MakinaDeMuerte]

No... it's different-one is for chocolate milk with squiggly letters and the other is a commercial for CocaCola... stop being so blind people.

[erez0706]

stop being so blind... same music.. same concept... ripoff

[alon1993]

So what?? the sleep walking act is a classic, and the Ravel's Bolero symbolizes sleepness and sleepwalking as far as i remember, lol... anyways, even if they did copy it.. i dont think it should matter to anyone, lol its just a commercial

[eitan1994]

I think that it was so wrong of Coca Cola to do that they cant after all that time they made alota ads but they cant think of something so they copy some1 elses that is just wrong!! :-(

[sarrebham1]

hahaha

It is what I've tried to explain to people, creativity is

getting harder to come by...

The advertising company wants a Masters degree? How do you LEARN to be creative?

Skills can be learned, creativity cannot....

[henrykitoy007]

sleepwalking is real and it exist in the mind that is inside our brain and conscious and cant afford to let out his mental function but he can move by means of executing his locomotor without seeing things

[Iberotimuka]

remarkably similar to say the least, it must be deliberate, surely

[DustinsFlix]

not many comments for such a high viewd video?

[DumbDuck44]

its called viewbots, its how you get your video to the front page.

you can also use bots to send out automated friend requests and the like.

[DustinsFlix]

@DumbDuck44 do you use it?

is it free or something?

[r3za89]

busted :D

[robinp1987]

lol

[masivo112]

is the same spot

[guyklei]

The worst thing is that Coca Cola didn't even change the music... how can they claim the similarity is accidental... silly fucks

[baronderothchild]

if was a palestinian commercial you wouldn't hear anything about it.

[mihalrots]

Shame on you Coca Cola!!!!

Ripping off a small company!!!! I hope they get sued and have to pay millions!!!

[OnePureSoul]

Hi there mihalrots - the thing is that in israel - this company is not small at all - it's one of the largest milk products companies in israel - coca cola just tought cuz the superbowl is not so pupolar in israel that no one would make the connection...

[mihalrots]

Hello OnePureSoul! As you may guess by my name- I know Yotveta very well and grew up with Michael Hanegby's version of the commercial, and with that chocolate milk... and Yotveta may be big in Israel- but that's a very very tiny market compared to Coca Cola's, and Yotveta itself is very very tiny compared to CocaCola, don't you agree? :-)

[OnePureSoul]

actually... I didnt guessed by your name...

mihalrots? =)

זה אמור להיות מיכל שורשים? או מיכאל שורשים?

[zdrak2]

Coca Cola claim the similarity is accidental. You know what? If this is accidental, I'm a balerina.

[LaserDude333]

Maybe you are, how knows?

....

But it's not accidental.

[mrgarina]

there is absolutely no doubt in my mind that the coka cola add is a rip off, and should pay the price for that.

[Ins3minator]

As someone in advertising i can assure you that the Coke ad creator got the idea unknowingly from Yotvata (its enough to see it once a few years back)

[namrur2]

Both at the desert, same bolero, same wakeup, same moon shot, same fridge idea, same drinkng style.

Same same, but "diferent".

[francomark]

They are COMPLETELY different. In one ad the guy drinks chocolate milk, and in the other he drinks Coke!!!

[13040]

How can anyone see any resemblance?

Really...

[livni2]

coca cola calls it "a slight coincidental resemblance"

lets see: same concept, opening shot, same bolero music, same sleepwaking scences, same journey scenes, ending with drink scenes.. yes how slight!

[EmaNaomi]

I've seen the full versions of both commercials. There really are very similar! Of course , the chocolate milk one was first

[dimasjoliveira]

"A gente mão conhecia o o utro comercial...", sei. Afffff

[toomanygames]

I like chocolate milk.

[alohawarriorchief]

whoever posted this has an agenda by editing the spots to look identical. yes they are VERY similar. but if you're going to put two spots side by side you should do it as they exist, not editorializing them to be identical.

[namrur2]

Funy clime (: Give me a brake. These commercials are not at same length (the only diference?), so the aditing shows well the identical elements, shots and music. They are basically the same. "What a coincidence".

[ImGodUFUCK]

Its not the agenda because its useless to show the stuff that are not the same because there are lots of different stuff but the MAIN idea is the same! a sleep walking guy who wakes up in the middle of the night to get his favorite drink, but making a damn hippo break a boat doesnt make the commercial idea yours..its like making a new brand of coke , make it red, taste like coca cola , but just call it KOUALA KOLA and make a damn cock as the logo, wouldnt that be a damn rip off too?

[DKjewell52]

that's embarrassing... the concept could have easily been a mistake of having the same idea. shit, it happens. but the fact that the background song is the same is real bad. this isn't even that cleaver of an idea, its an obvious plot.

[Veksler96]

EVEN THE SAME SONG!!!

btw i LOVE yotvata's products!

[invertebrae]

My problem with this split screen is that (while the concepts and several shots are INDEED ripped off), both sequences have been edited to match one another. Neither are the original spots, but cut downs from the source to make the copy-cat shots line up.

Otherwise... shame on Wieden.

[niv001]

I smell law suit :D

[civitati]

that's why I prefer PEPSI!! lol

[doublemazaa]

They certainly have some similarities, especially when they're recut to look exactly the same. Take a look at the whole coke spot, and you'll see that it's more different than you're indicating here.

[zoosia]

@doublemazaa - sure there are differences (the full Yotvata spot also has more scenes).

BUT there are too many undeniable similarities in basic concept, look&feel, and above all - the music.

[Gnarlodious]

Yotvat, world's best yogurt! Nice kibbutz too.

[bittersweeteenspirit]

YOTVATA!

[yossisht]

sue them!!!!

[mimsar1]

Always go with the Biblical source -- the winner is clear --

[nissimvas]

yotvata the best
