Guy Ritchie gets out of the house for Nike.


Find more videos like this on AdGabber

I like this new Guy Ritchie Nike work from 72andSunny found on AdGabber. (Anything that gets Guy out of the house I’m all for. C’mon though, really. It has to suck being ‘Madonna’s husband.’ One day you’re the British Tarantino, the next, you’re signing adoption papers and carrying shopping bags. Ouch.) Now, I realize most of America could care less about Guy OR soccer, but this 2-minute film touches on something that I think could help the sport do better among American audiences: the way the game is covered. The spot gets into the actual game and shoots it in a way not typically shown for soccer matches. Lotta great one-on-one play gets missed amongst the big ass long shots found on Univision or ESPN.

Exactly - the big ass long shots. What they need is that overhead cam on wires used in the NFL.

I love this film. I have been a fan of Guy since Lock, Stock.

Is this going to be played in the US?

Talk about a loaded question on a post about soccer in America.

;-p

Not sure james. At two minutes I doubt it. Probably get cut to a :30 if it runs.

This is a great commercial/short film from a great perspective. I wonder how they're going to show it on TV because it's too long or if they're just going to let it run online.

Could you also update The Ranch link? I finally got a user-friendly URL.
