TOP9 ads: pepsi football
here are my TOP9 adverts from pepsi football:

TOP9 ads: nike football
here are my TOP9 advertisements from nike football:
1. write the future
this may be infamous now for “bringing bad luck” to the football superstars featured in the ad during this year’s world cup, but the escribi futuro campaign for nike football is truly a masterpiece. portugal captain cristiano ronaldo, who debuted his simpsonized self in the commercial, provided the best...

TOP9 real madrid signings of 2010
due to the departure of rafael van der vaart, i realized that my TOP9 list of real madrid players is no longer appropriate. so, i decided to make a new one. unfortunately, the task of squeezing 25 talented players into a TOP9 list is just too difficult for me. since i don’t want to make a TOP9 list of injured merengues, i just settled on the newbies instead. so, here are my TOP9 real...

TOP9 harry potter characters: female
here are my TOP9 female characters from the harry potter series:

tonks is probably the most expressive character in the harry potter series. her appearance, for example, is always reflective of her current disposition: he hair is bubblegum pink when she’s happy and turns mousy brown when she’s sad. heck, she can even change her patronus just to express what...

TOP9 reasons to love: jeux d'enfants
My favorite French film is Yann Samuell’s directorial debut, Jeux d’Enfants. Although its literal translation in English is Children’s Games, the movie was internationally retitled Love Me if You Dare. Both titles are totally appropriate, if you ask me, but I’d still prefer Jeux d’Enfants (probably because everything sounds better in French). Anyway, here are some...
