Comedy genius or just weird??

Having been told about this advert for Cadburys choclate on British TV I then searched for it and found it on the net. I just can't figure out, is this comedy genius or the crazed ideas of advertising guru's off their nut on crack??

Please watch it and decide for yourself!!

if it was advertising genius then people would know wtf they were advertising, you ask most ppl about what the monkey ad is advertising and they simply do not know.

The fact that there is a thread about it here and that people are talking about it makes it a successful advert.

erm, thats not true at all - people will then ask whats the monkey add about and some will answer. in any case i wonder why the ape is using the hi-hat when there's no hi-hat sound?

not genius nor odd, just another add imo

Two comments... I'm spitting bile about this.

One: It's a shit idea, done shittily for shit reasons (and a shit song by a shit artiste).
Two: Drawing people's attention to it means that the advert has won.

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh sssshit!
