Advertising is now as big a part of movies as actors or special effects – it's a cold, hard fact of life that wherever there are eyes trained on a screen, there'll be some pen-chewing dickwad executive willing to cram a commercial on it. Product placement is all well and good, but what's the next logical step? Instead of forcing directors to sell your products in their movies, why not pay them shitloads of money to direct your commercials? The results are odd little mini-movies; an experience akin to hanging out with your favourite directors while they try and pick your pocket. We've picked the best of the bunch as an example of directors that have at least tried to turn advertising into art. Bend over and enjoy some corporate shaft: it's the future.
