I know it's not PC and all that but at least they're funny, non? Adverts are so serious these days, especially with all the legal stuff they have to work around to make sure they are not misleading consumer, which I also agree with (contradictory I know). But sometimes I just wish we lived in a world that was more fun, a bit like this-
To be honest I really don't think there is that much difference between these old adverts and the one's we see today. It's all smoke and mirrors, as me Nana would say or Photoshoped too hell, as I would say. It's a bit mad really that company's can get away with altering images so extensively without having to acknowledge it. And what's even worse for me is that they images don't need to be altered to start with. I did a bit of searching to see if I could find some shock photshop pictures but apart from the Madonna/D&G, most pre-photshopped images are fine. So the dilema is whats the point in altering them in the first place or if it's not that much different to the original then why not? What do ya'll think?
