    kit kat is going to get sued by ben stiller

    or whatever company owns them.

    they have a new commercial out that has an actress, actor and a couple of kids in a photo booth snapping pics.

    here's the skinny. the dude resembles ben stiller so much it makes you watch it more to see if it's actually him. the person in charge effectively does this by only keeping the camera on him for a couple of seconds at a time, thus making you think it's ben stiller pushing kit kats.....and the lady even looks too much like alissa miliano as well.

    Who says they are? Just because he looks like him doesn't mean shit. Unless he is saying "I'm Ben Stiller" or he is being presented as a character from one of his movies he can't do shit.

    This is not true. I know Tom Waits, at least. succesdfully sued a company for making a commercial with a "Tom Waits type" in it. Not sure how many other cases there have been

    The waits stuff was supposedly pretty obvious, tho. They'd ask him to do an ad with a song of his, he'd say no, then they'd get a look/sound-alike to do a waits-ish song on the commercial.

    to be fair I smelled a horrible thread a mile away and didn't click or read any of the nonsense in the OP

    any of u sheep could argue how horrible the thread is all you want.

    but imo this commercial was made to deceive and profit by using the likeness of another actor.

    if i changed the heading to tv commercial deception and asked your thoughts on it, it would hit 3 pages and stir invigorating responses....instead of that world class hate and i'm to cool for this routine most of you bozos are known for.

    You know the thread is bad when good posters show up saying how bad it is.

    The bottom of the barrel posters didn't even have to troll it.

    If that is the video, that looks nothing like Ben Stiller.
