I never realized how those Trivago commercials were important until I saw one of those YouTube comments on a tragically pathetic news where the user made fun
of the news and ended with the famous tech-company for hotels. It was in another language but I got the joke because - as I later find out - those Trivago
ads are all uniformly made around the world. It gets to your brain without you fully realizing it and once the idea is there you can't kill it.
And it's unbelivably insane how those guys and girls are all similar in looks, clothing style, incredibly sexy voice and presence, and THE exact same text and scenary for each country. Here in Brazil, actor Willian Mello plays him and he never got out of my head (outside of the brand script, he's so funny and intelligent that you wonder what's wrong with him. The video of him reading tweets about him and the ads is hilarious).
A monster was unleashed then, and that's how I got here. This spoof by Funny or Die starring Nick Corirossi as a Trivago spokesperson is so spot-on to the reality that it's almost not that funny since it's really strange to walk away completely from the original source. With some lines here and there about how perfect the product and the guy is - though he's careless look is not accidental. Everything's so good and perfect with the dude that he stops "selling" the product and goes on to say he'll join consumers whenever they want him. It's like no problems at all, maybe I'll stop by your house, your bed, and he desperatly needs a belt.
It was quite humored but the fully potential wasn't developed because to stray away from the real commercial it wouldn't represent as audiences think it is - either too good or annoyingly limited and a copy of a copy (of themselves actually); and it can only works if you'd seen those ads. Just search for all the versions around the globe or compilations about them to get a notion beyond of what I explained. Corirossi was funny but I think he should have played the man a little bit different than the usual commercial actors/models; or have some interaction with another comedian could have been made. However, the walking was hysterical as if drunk; the accent was bizarre but understandable. There's so much going on you need to watch it a copuple of times to get some of the comedy details that goes a little beyond the ads.
With all those experiences put together you can have a lot more than just two minutes of laughter. Have fun. 8/10
