Title: Rabbids and Renault

Click that. There are some rabbid commercials with the automobile brand, Renault. They're kind of cute.

But things brings up my question - are video game characters (or other characters) utilized appropriately? Or should shills stick with real celebrities?

Just looking at my fridge magnets, I see Dodge using quite a few movie licenses (like Madagascar), and they made really memorable commercials. But in terms of crossovers with video games, that's pretty rare.

Which may as well bring up another question, for you, what makes a memorable advertisement? To me, it's usually bright, quirky, and familiar. So the rabbids work well for me./

I want to see other videogame characters mixed in commercials. Not because it'd advertise the character, but what the character does in the real world. :D
