Cadbury Gorilla Advert
I just had to share this TV ad… someone in Cadbury’s marketing department has clearly been putting hallucinogenic drugs in the chocolate…
There’s a higher quality version on the Cabdury website – (assuming you can stand to listen to Phil Collins in higher quality).
Wasnt goin to write anyfin but have jus workd myself up in2 a gigglin frenzy readin every1s comments! Its unreal how an advert can make so many peoples day! Im due for my gorilla advert top on youtube me thinks! Oh and message to cadburys, there is no way you can top this advert!
i thought this advert is the best i sin in ages they got everythin rite on it top advert
I LOVE ITT!! THE BEST ADVERT EVER!! MAKES ME SMILEE!!
:) XXXX
simply——–what a rush
please keep this advert on Tv it’s great, nice touch during the world cup semi (come on lads) and the same for this weekend please….thanks, phil collins is great also!!!
You are all missing the point. There is no connection between chocolate and gorillas or chocolate and Phil Collins. It’s all about fun.
For those that asked, the gorilla is definitely a man in a suit but it isn’t Phil Collins.
does it really matter that there is no connection between the gorilla and chocolate.
it is a quality advert.
Who is the drummer in the gorilla suit? My dad says it’s a real gorilla. You can tell by the way how he is licking the chocolate of his lips.
I know because I went to school at the same time as Phill Collins……………………………. quarter to nine!!
Mystery Solved?!?!
It’s definately the same gorilla in “Trading Places” with Dan Akroyd and Eddie Murphy. Hope this has put everyone out of their misery.
Enjoy!
i think this advert is great the best i have seen in a long time,as a big phil collins it can’t be bettered
The advert is bollocks. the only good thing is the song when the drums drop. except that no. A BETTER ADVERT is the Magic advert… with Micheal Buble singing that amazing song.
It won’t make me buy chocolate but its a brilliant advert. As good as the Smash advert.
Pure Enjoyment Eating Chocolate, just like the gorilla
‘s face pure enjoyment.
GREAT advert and music.
Best advert since James Nesbitt’s Hairdresser ad for yellow pages
It is said that Gorilla’s can pick up the scent of Cocoa Beans, and well know what chocolate is made out of, that is the connection, and also Gorilla’s bang their chests if they smell something they like, so that is connection between everything.
Hi guys,
the guy in the gorilla suit is a guy called Juan, look it up in the ad companies website!!
Hi sorry guys, it is a guy called Garon Michael in the suit not Juan. Juan is the guy who devised the advert!
This advert is absolutly excellent. I got the song of iTunes and now I see a drumming gorilla in my head every time I listen to it! It’s great! Is it a man in a suit? Actually, don’t tell me- it would ruin my birthday (today)!!!!!
Aww paul, you just ruined that girl’s birthday.
Janet’s sounds like she’s in a baaaaaaad mood!!!
if it wasn’t a man in a suit then wouldn’t it be against an animal cruetly law or something?
lol !!!!!!!!! it is the best loooooooooooooool!!!
it is shit
haha a love this advert its f****n brill!!!
THE MOST AWESOME VID I HAVE EVER SEEN!!! PURE GENIUS.
I DONT EAT CHOCOLATE BUT HAVE JUST BOUGHT A BIG CADBURYS CHOC IN HONOUR OF THIS MAGNIFICENT STUFF. I SHALL BE REPLAYING THIS FOR A LONG LONG TIME!! LINA.
The reason behind the advert is very simple. Phil Collins songs are known for 2 things: 1) Their simplicity, or even their complete lack of apparant skill to write them. And 2) Lots of people like them despite the apparent lack of skill.
The gorilla drumming is ripping the song in the sense it’s saying even a gorilla can drum along to it and secondly that, from his obvious connection to the song, that he really likes it (hence the guilty pleasure).
its well gud that gorilla advert
I think the advert is fabulous!
Errm, if it was a real gorilla dont you think the animal rights people would be in there straight away??
For some reason my dads totally stuck on the idea that its a real gorilla. It really isnt. lmao.
Tbh, it doesnt matter if there isnt a connection. Its a GRREEAAT advert, like the best I’ve seen in my entire 13 years of living. (Y)
Yay. x
THIS IS BRILL NO MATTER WAT ANY1 SAYS, I LOVE IT..!!!!!!!
lol funny ad THE GUY produtins
the whole advert lasts for 1 and a half minutes and the cadburys slogan is 1 and a half glass of pleasure and the gorilla is having fun for 1 and a half minuets the fact tht it is a gorilla doesnt matter thy picked tht cuz it’ll be hard for a dog to play drums
Well i think it is one of the best adverts of all time itz so smoothly put together!! And it deserves sme sort of award coz really it is fantastic!!!
The very fact that so many people are talking about it just goes to prove the advert is working. That is the connection!!!!!
THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST ADVERTISING THINGS IVE EVER SEEN…SO FUNNI
is the gorilla in the ad real or is it an actor all the way through we are having a debate please reply asap thanx
Trust me i loooooooooooove it,the gorrila looks so real.the brain behind it it a genius.
It’s intended to remind people how great the chocolate is.
The sight of the gorilla drumming along to Phil Collins should make you smile, just like a slab of Dairy Milk.
Motors in the head are remote controlled by two puppeteers to make the facial movements.
There’s a video screen inside the head so he can watch the performance and bring the body in line with what’s happening facially.
None of this matters really because if the gorilla was real it would be genius.
Its not real but the robotics convinced us it might be. Still genius.
Enjoy…..
i thought the ape was real, sick outfit, its mint
think about it, they using a different method to get you
to think of the chocolate, when u hear that music u will remember the Advert for the chocolate.
this advert is the flippin greatest!!! I love it. I don’t even know what it is. Its just random and enjoyable
love this advert its great and who cares what it means its just an advert
Love the advert and looks great, but is it real? or just another good bit of video editing? really makes you remember and want to go out and buy a bar of dairy milk!lol
Am I the only one who dislikes this advert?!
Adverts like this wind me up. Entirely pointless and uninformative.
But… all credit to the advertising bods, they’ve managed to get a load of people talking about it which means they have succesfully achieved their aim. Well done to them.
I just wish we weren’t all so gullable!!
Arrrgh!!!
Even I’m talking about it now!!!!
This is quite a good advert…fair enough there is no connection between a Gorilla and Cadbury’s but it just makes you think…well it makes me think anyway! Its something unusual and I like it.
To add, I maybe young, but I thought the whole point of adverts was to show entertainment on TV and not to sell products…there isn’t one advert that you see on TV that is just there for the sake of it or to entertain people.
The great thing about this ad is that there are lots of ads out there that everyone thinks, hey waht a fantastic ad, although I can’t remember what it is for, this one we are all talking about and we know what is for … gorillas right?
how can i download this video 4 my p.c
There are some really idiotic ads. out there and despite seeing them many times, we often don’t know what they are for. First time I saw it, I was questioning why was a gorilla listening to Phil Collins music – slow motion expectation on the camera zooming out revealed a gorilla sitting next to the drums. NOW, we all know what it is all about. As an ad is just pure genius – not only is entertaining but we all know what it is advertising.
Well i do say…I love it, it is such an inspiration to culture because it reflects my whole life in one piece of chocolate. Minted!! Bo ya kasha. Loadsa love to my sexy gorilla, love it! drive safe m8h’s!
