NEW NYQUIST SPOTS



Filmgraphics director Jon Nyquist has been busy lately, including shooting a spot for LG via Euro Next Korea and a series for McDonald's via DDB Sydney. The latter spots were created by Ben O'Brien, Adam Rose and Alex Stainton.

McDonalds did this idea far better a couple of years ago with their 'spy cam' campaign. Not very original DDB.

...I'm guessing the closest those two kids have come to a chopped pickle and a flipped pattie is the wrong side of the drive thru window....and even if they do work at Maccas it could have been a whole lot more "real" and interesting...lets throw the chick in from blue heelers and we can do a cross promo with coles...

Not the creatives fault. But maccas is maccas. A hang over the unhealthy 80s. People don't like it! Get over it.

I've had enough of people saying DDB's ideas are unoriginal. So I went to the agency to check out the ideas, 100% pure Aussie creative, no talent.

Can DDB please stop putting their McDiahorreah on this blog. It's offensive to the advertising community.

What they don't do is check out the allegations that the staff wipe snot into the burgers. And, as one American ad once said, 'Buy a big mac and we'll toss in a salad."

Hey, this is Filmgraphics press release not DDBs. So, whether you like the spots or not, I think Jon Nyquist deserves a moment in the sun. He's done a great job getting performances from "real" Maccas staff. And, they look bloody nice. Well done Jono.

I worked in Mcdonalds in England a long time ago, and trust me, they don't call it 'special sauce' for nothing.

DDB Auckland does a much better job for Maccas NZ.

I reckon the work coming out of DDB Melbourne is tastier.
The Heinz spagetti man print and mean beans print campaign that's on bestads.com piss all over the majority of food advertising out there at the moment. I also found out they did the new ANZ security spot with the falcon and the little guy who says 'large fries'.

I thought M&C had ANZ or am I just confused?

DDB Auckland? Are you kidding me? Have you seen what they did with the exact same brief? Some famous cyclist talking about how great Maccas is. This is Gold compared to that shit.

Yeah, Faudet is doing a good job, despite the obvious animosity and lack of support from head office.

I have a friend of a friend who said he jerked off in the mayo at Macca's on a dare. Cross my heart.

Hi 2.04,I thought everyone agreed that the Napcan spot was pretty ordinary,but i guess as you wrote it ,you wouldn't agree.

Honestly, looking at these spots – who the fuck from maccas would go out into the country and find out for themselves and who the fuck would go onto the website to find out either??

Does DDB think people give a shit?
