[richiebowen]

Jonathan Glazier legend of a director

[pizzaisyummy86]

the ending where the surfer queers are grouping each other is gay as fuck.

Nice!^^

[wigzisonfire]

@richardbrodieuk STFU dude. Your pathetic opinion means nothing. This is the Greatest Ad EVER. FACT. Go back to touching yourself until you make a better ad yourself.

[NYCNECH]

Best Ever.

[minniethe3rd]

Best ad - EVER

[richardbrodieuk]

I think this is a top ad, visual amazing, but by no means the greatest advert ever

[LPSpence]

I'm currently drinking a GUINNESS!! :D

[cateyeski1]

[NarcoticBeats]

@cateyeski1 Leftfield - Phat Planet soundcloud. com/narcoticbeats/things-i-hav­ent-told-you-about-phat-planet

[besidemymind]

You misspelled Guinness. idiot.

[ayshi23]

[lew956]

I don't understand what the buzz is this advert sucks and worst of all I have to analyse it for college work. :(

[ryandavidkett]

@lew956 - Me too, and I really can't be arsed.

[Ihaveaids2]

This gives me the chills everytime.Unbelievelable piece of advertising.

[binjoo1]

Awesome, why aren't ads like this anymore?

[nutellajunkie]

giffgaff ;)

[jordanmanndude]

anyone know what the song is called?

[bhchargers]

@jordanmanndude leftfield phat planet

[nameofthepen]

Here's to a lot of male bonding, too. :-P

[anyfink1]

[strepsil08]

Who knew adverts could be this cool...

[dudedude270]

the best advert ever!

[pitzerwoods]

...huh?....

[socarulz]

and the fat drummer hit the beat, with all his heart.

[tHickman95]

@socarulz

hmmm. interesting,

i just thought, should it be 'phat'?

leftfield ftw!!

[masterchiefx2]

the tick tock bit suxxx but the add is good

[LittleG4]

i don't get what is so amazing ?

[phsycotackler]

your an idiot.

[AaronYid140]

I agree. Such a Plum

[LittleG4]

wish to explain?

[phsycotackler]

i just wrote a two paged coursework essay on it just read a review. :)

[tHickman95]

@phsycotaclol, this is one of the better ads to do it on, i have to do one too, im either gonna do it on this one, the visa one with derek redmond in it, or the smirnoff ice one with the tour round uri's house :)

[tehkevz]

I saw a show a while ago, it was a top 50 adds affair, and this one was number 1

[Sfikou]

me too. i think it was number one. i just saw another guiness add which reminded me of this one so i looked it up

[hun90]

Whats the song in this advert?

[BopGun86]

this commercial is lame

[miss4tunek2y]

The one with the dancing man is better.

[sawguner]

Genius,made me go surfing under the golden gate bridge, and after that I went and drank a pint of Guinness! ! I got buzzed twice in one day, how cool is that??

[kitepixie]

thats pretty awesome mate

[1RadioTV]

never had a guiness but does it really froth downwards in the glass as shown in the last moments of the ad? also, that slight and shaky zoom effect at the end intrigues me.

[tastybrownies]

Yes, indeed it does.

[mrclembo]

this is a masterpiece, you know why!? Cus right now i want both to go surfing, and to buy a few pints of guiness

[matshell]

i would pay to see this short short advert, on the big screen :)

[dudedude270]

bit buggy

it stops 3 times and its annoying

[dudedude270]

best advert for a long while

[graham8989898]

great advert

[drfeelgood1992]

what is the name of that song

[saiyanrob]

it's Phat Planet from Leftfield

[mutweri]

does anyone know the process used to incorp the horses into the waves?

[WheresMyTrev]

mutweri,

hundreds of takes of horses jumping over fences etc were filmed (35mm) in front of bluescreen. They were filmed at high speed and at all different angles. The compositors then had the freedom to choose which takes were to be used and how much they sped them up by. Most of the bluescreen compositing was done using a program called Cineon, which is now defunct. There were also some water spray elements filmed and some water spray elements rendered in 3D. hope that answers your question.

[sandynathan]

amazing advert..great soundtrack....love it!!!!

[hughezee]

check out my mix

guiness surfers vs fireball mail Earl Scruggs

[galwaybp]

is this the guinness add that Christy Moore refers to in his song delerium tremens?...."as i sat looking up at the guinness add, i could never figure out, how ur man stayed up on the surfboard after 14 pints of stout"

[ajit8r]

No it's not. Christy sings about the legendary early 80s ad, featuring the girl with the great arse - and far more seminal in it's day than "tick follows tock". The music was great too, hope someone puts it up...

[TrendzorTrev]

tisk, follows tock, follows, tick, follows tock...hehe it amuses me:] Gr8 advert

[NAPPEY]

white horsese rowlling with roth and anger thats the north east 1488 wash the skum away

[LisaGreywords]

The horses in the water make me think of the ending to Last Unicorn. :D

[delboard]

The track is Leftfield-phat planet, off there second album 'Rythmn and Stealth'.

[o0omillieo0o]

Me too!! whats the music?!!?

True, although this advert was made for a British audience :S

[1MrTurd]

Every Guiness Advert I've ever seen is awesome, whoever they've got working for them is a genius

[Chris123west]

This was vited the best advert EVER in 2000... just thought you'd all like to know, lol, i was watching "the 100 greatest TV ads" last night... sad, but true :)

[Disajan]

This is one of the best Guiness adverts ever!!

[HULKAKR]

Drinking Guinness as I watch this.

[htownmike68]

Great video, great beers. Cheers

[taylangungor]

genius

[wurble]

best advert ever. I'd rather sit and watch that ad on repeat than half the shit thats on tv.

[wyattlevi]

johnathan glazer. brilliant. although the imagery is a famous art rip-off, the spot is still amazing

[bastienfrancois]

which art rip-off? cheers

[wyattlevi]

well, for one thing, it was on a cheap poster in the casa particularas i stayed in in Habana last February... but I've seen it before, comes from seaman lore or something like that.

[sykesythedudeaha]

best ad ever! always watch it before going out for a surf!!

[Muffinthraka]

The best ad ever.

[jags108]

A classic ad. Probably one of the best.

[boomshakk]

it was voted #1 ad of all time in that channel 4 top 100 list a couple years back

[MechFighter]

The music is from Leftfield, title, Phat Planet

[Trighpy]

Does anyone no the name to the piece of music that plays in the backgroud? truly a briliant advert.

[TheManFromUNCLE]

All the Guiness adverts around that era were amazing, from the snail racing to beating the pint, from the dream club to walking over hot lava and of course the surfer. Quality use of Phat Planet
