Night of the ADEaters Kuwait 2010

and I finally FINALLY watched the ads at the ADEaters night which took place yesterday February 9th at KNCC’s movie theaters at Avenues and I had a blast inside specially with that clapper thing lol! I laughed so hard and my boss was sitting next to me probably thinking “OMGGG” ! heck, I loved the screening!
Now, you know I love to rant and get the negativity out so here are my 2 cents:
1. One day event in a closed area with tickets either sold or passed on as invites is still a mistake! Students with professional and marketeers were all over each other; It was packed! Last year they had a day for VIPs and the second day was for people who bought the tickets

They actually used a pop up stand!

Dude Marketing manager from Zain
2. Zain had a very humble display – booth although their ads were all over the place as well as their goody bags and commercials on the screens outside the actual screening rooms, it wasn’t like last year. Wonder if they’re cutting cost or is that because of Sa’ad Al Barrak’s resignation ;p
3. There was a good number of sponsors of course and I totally fell in love with a new canned chilled latte from Nescafe, wonder if it’s available in market!? bas it was really good! chocolate, popcorn, sushi, pringles, buffet which SUCKED – probably because it’s a barter deal bas it was baaaaaaaad

Got one and passed it along

Got 3 and passed them on as well

4. I still have an issue with the stage setting and the damn fog machine man! I hatttttttte that stinkin’ smell

5. I think it’s cool when people actually sponsor an event, whether actually paying or by offering services – products but some things were :$ – if you know what I mean!

E7em.. if flies also :p
and if you think that’s embarrassing, check out what we all found in one of the goody bags LOL – even guys got those!

I ate popcorn :D and got to take a picture of this guy

I seriously liked the laser show, hence I emphasize on the outdoor setting for the event next year

Watch video:
Another thing I liked was the magic show, although the guy wasn’t that good but I enjoyed their act:



Watch video:
I just remembered to write about the ads screening!!
1. they said 7:30 and it started at 8, I was hungry!
2. There should have been alike a chronological order of the ads, they started with ads of 2008 – then a couple of crazy African ads from the 70s loool, then they moved to awareness commercial! I was confused! They should have categorized it in a different way because I didn’t watch the second part of the ads ;/
3. The intermission came on after like an hour or more… I was dyiiiiing in my chair :$ they should have had a break every half an hour putting into consideration that people have work next day, people were stuck outside.. people need to eat or go to the toilet maybe without missing anything!
4. After the first half both organizers, sponsors also attendees started leaving! did anyone stay till the very end for the show!!??
5. I loveeeed the Egyptian TVCs
6. The only Kuwaiti TVC was played and I didn’t get a single word from it!
TVCs I really loved:
The whoooole campaign!
The Cadbury Gorilla drummer!
Green Peace suicidal animals
Nico Smoke <-- LOL
