Video Vednesday: Dasani Commercials

Dasani has a set of commercials out with experts telling you about their product. The entertaining thing is that these "experts" are a dog, a hamster, and a bear.

No, they aren't cartoons, and they aren't actual animals with the fake moving CGI mouth. They're people, dressed in big animal suits. The dog tells you that drinking Dasani will "take the taste-of-tennis ball right out of your yap," while the bear informs you about other companies' mountain stream water: "You do not want any of that. There's salmon in there. And you know what they're doing? Spawning!"

And why, prey tell, are these commercials so amuzing? Simple. Dasani hired Wes Anderson (Bottle Rocket, Rushmore, The Royal Tenenbaums, The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou) to direct them.

Head to Dasani's website, which will load up a Flash page. From there, put your mouse over "TV Ads," click on "Watch the New Ads," and click on "Watch the ads from 2005."
