SA born comedian Trevor Noah has made an ad for SA Tourism which cost somewhere in the region of R34 million.

Awful ad: Sir Peter Jackson and Taika Watiti made an Air NZ safety ad which was millions of miles better than this thing.

No problem with him: he's done very well for himself. Cheers

My problem is that this ad has cost the South African taxpayer millions: about $2 million USD for the ad.  Buggedout

Did they mention the koala races? That would get tourism hopping!

You have a problem with $2m for an ad? Those are peanuts. You wouldn't survive Germany:

The government invested billions of euros of tax money in pointless projects in the last two years.

That's like, 500 ads for one billion alone  Wink

Agreed.

Our government has been accused many times over of corruption and greed and this ad - which allegedly cost 34 million Rand - is just another case in point which adds to their mantra "It is our time to eat". Sad, really.

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.
