Oasis - cactus man advert ??

[Drisgirl]

Is there anyone out there who is as bamboozled by this advert as me?

Can anyone kindly explain WTF its about -I have watched it countelss times and I still dont get it -so much so i'm almost obsessed trying to detect the meaning behind it lol !!!!

Its a take off of Badlands - old film with Martin Sheen and Sissy Spacek, but instead of the bad boy being a serial killer he's a cactus - deserts, oasis, thirst. geddit?

Aww right -thats a bit heavy for an ad -jeez !!

Thanks for your reply -I would never have got that one !!!

Although it might be a spoof of Badlands it's also pure madness.

Getting pregnant off a cactus man can't be fun

basically what they're trying to rope in everyone from the 60's and teenagers by saying that oasis contains psychoactive drugs which will bring full on hallucinations! after that advert was aired ive ordered a couple of pallets of the stuff,if i dont end up seeing cactus men,fairies and ufo's they can expect to hear from lawyer!
