tell me why Cadburys have a gorilla advertising chocolate.

Great ad, great song, but why?!

I was also considering this yesterday. Seen the ad millions of times but it occured to me yesterday it doesn't make me want to go out and buy Cadbury's chocolate lol

Maybe it has had the desired effect - we're talking about it, after all ;o)

It's even getting props over here. The magazine Entertainment Weekly had on their "check this out" list.

A great advert. Really captures your attention. I guess if it were just some random human it wouldn't be half as appealing would it? :p

Actually, was the advert in conjunction with the Rugby world cup? I remember he has a kind of "come on England" message on his drums, at least on some of them. So, I guess a gorilla is big and powerful, which reflects the spirit of rugby and rugby players. :)

Yeah, they paid quite a hefty sum to show the advert before the final and semi-final with pro-England slogans on the drums.
