| The Deforestation of Harrison Ford’s Chest Hair |
| 05.22.08 (2:29 am) [edit] |
How far are you willing to go to help out a charity cause? Have you heard what Harrison Ford did to raise awareness about deforestation and its effect on global warming? Just reading about the news made me wince. But it didn’t really make me think of the issue. It just made me wince, actually.
Harrison Ford, who is now 65, agreed to wax his chest hair for an ad by Conservation International. This 30-second commercial reminds people of Steve Carell’s scene in the movie, The 40-Year-Old Virgin. But that was completely hilarious.
Mr. Ford’s version is far from comedy. He is serious about the ad. The message he likes to impart was – “Every bit of rain forest that gets ripped out over there really hurts us over here.”
If you are guilty of causing deforestation, how would you feel after seeing this commercial?
A. You will feel sorry that because of you, Indiana Jones had to undergo such painful process.
B. You will feel sorry for Calista Flockhart who will definitely miss those hairs. But after a while, be glad again because you know that soon enough, those will grow back.
C. Make sure that you print such pix of Mr. Ford using the best method like offset printing because it can become a collector’s item.
My point is that I cannot see the point at all. Do you think it’s the right ad for such cause? I don’t. If people need to be aware of the problem, show it to them pointblank. Use the real images on your ads.
What’s the effect of deforestation? What happens to the wild animals as a result of this problem? How will if affect people in the process, especially when there are natural calamities? This way, the focus becomes clear. Forget about the hunky chest of Mr. Ford or the way he reacts to waxing. It may be a good ad about understanding women better.
