So this ad has been on South African tv screens for quite a while now, but I never fail to be amused each and every time it’s on. I therefore figured I should probably share it with the one person out there who hasn’t seen it yet.
Alright stop, collaborate and listen:
Awesomeness. With tears in my eyes…
Did you ever get to see his movie Cool as Ice (1991),?
The cover went a little something like this:
Cool as Ice
…and included the legendary byline:
When a girl has a heart of stone, there’s only one way to melt it. Just add Ice.
It was (obviously) insanely 90s, and featured one of the greatest lines in the history of film:
Drop that zero and get with the hero!
Other pearlers include:
Kathy: So, where are you from?
Johnny: Around.
Kathy: Around?
Johnny: Yup-yup.
and…
Princess: Where were you?
Johnny: Chillin’ wit Kat. You know, that chick who drives the horse.
Again, with tears in my eyes…
And now, for those who are of an arty persuasion, here’s a clip about the making of the Castle Lite ad (first seen in a post on 2oceansvibe):
Mr Ice, or for the purposes of factual accuracy, Mr Robert Matthew Van Winkle -- we salute you!
Alright stop.
