odd snag?

**click here to go to the weber site and view the rip-off**

so the other morning i woke up to a Weber Grill commercial on FoxNews... it looked really familiar - actually the style did...

a dude (animated) sitting with a remote and watching teevee... clicking around... slow laid back voice... and then it started hyping the weber grill

that said... i wrote odd todd because i was wondering if he had animated it...

he wrote back that he did not.

that sucks.

so another weber ad ran last night on espn... different commercial, same dude and style... so i sent todd clip i shot of it... now, it's not an "exact" duplication of his character, but i think it's damn well trying to be... and i think it damned well sucks since he said he knew nothing about the ads...

see for yourself...

• here's the weber ad... (not the one w the dude and the teevee)

• here's odd todd's site - for those who have never seen his flash movies, they rock.

i seriously hate when others blatantly snag a design - it's happened to me thrice - no, it's never been shown on the teevee, but still, it makes one feel violated.
