[CidSilverWing]

Featured on TV Tropes

[sonofZekie]

best add in the world

[drummerllama]

OH MY GOD PLEASE TELL ME THE NAME OF THIS SONG I HAVE LOOKING FOR IT FOR AGES I WANT TO MAKE A MONTAGE!!

[AquaPhoenix2006]

@drummerllama "O Fortuna", it's been so overused by Youtube montage makers that this ad was made to parody it

[Keairan3]

@drummerllama It is O Fortuna like Aquaphoenix2006 said, but it's part of a larger work called Carmina Burana by Carl Orff.

[jstin8]

[Jessicaisrealawesome]

Can't believe this didn't go viral!

[ComotoseOnAnime]

[OmegaChosen0]

BEST BERR COMMERCIAL EVER!

[TheSportboy2000]

O fortuna

[liam1559]

its a big ad

[deathroll20]

@liam1559 very big ad

[anneliesef96]

what is the orginal song of this?

[FireHeadRed14]

@anneliesef96 i thin it is Excalibur, by FCB :)

[aps030589]

Whoever runs the CUB is an idiot. They keep changing the alcohol content. Carlton Cold used to be a perfectly good beer now they've turned it into some shit light beer that I never touch anymore. VB used to be 4.9% and tasted a whole lot better, although it isn't to bad now. Get's me worried that if they change Carlton Draught, my favourite beer, the CUB will go broke. Whoever runs the place is an absolute fuckwit.

[murfeel]

wow

[hmetal888]

Aussie do it better.

[CalyxAsgard]

From what I found out about this ad, it didn't sell all that much beer.

[armogirl9]

[jgpp]

@banzai23Q -- Proud to be Australian too, and glad the New Zealand film industry will stoop to advertise our beers. Excellent work.

[shayanaali]

wow

best ad ever

[TheCJ2CJ]

i made this my ringtone :) 

[ReaderADV]

O Fortuna might be a common song in advertising, but why not use In Taberna for a beer commercial? You know, the *tavern song* from Carmina Burana.

[hotelmario510]

@ReaderADV That would miss the point of the joke: O Fortuna is the most overused "dramatic" song ever.

[jezza5955]

the whole add was acttully wat she said lol

[GaladedridDamodred]

Hey guys, I'm not sure but I think it might be a big ad.

[Auzziekiwi1]

It's a big ad very big ad!!!!!!!

[CalyxAsgard]

The sad thing about this ad? It didn't help them sell more beer.

[casper9013]

Was this filmed in New Zealand? that looks suspiciously like Rohan

[semtex84]

@casper9013 Yes and many of those actors are actually members of the New Zealand Army.

[LoverParody]

@casper9013 no australia

[pedekiller]

@casper9013 would not be surprised, them NZ'ers have the most beautiful scenery!

[racoonslovepie]

[stiggiethefirst]

[Totema1]

Too bad the beer is rubbish.

[zhukie]

@Totema1

Sad but true, they should do a funny Coopers ad

[nivekab]

Fantastic! They used O Fortuna from Carmina Burana

[UpTheIrons911]

From Wikipedia:

Location: Queenstown, New Zealand

Cast: 300 locals (consisted mainly of backpackers)

To create large (tens of thousands of people) crowds for the ad MASSIVE software with semi-independent AI actors from Weta Digital was used.

The advertisement has since received over 30 awards globally, including a prestigious Gold Lion award at the 53rd Cannes Lions International Advertising Festival in 2006.
