Tetris vs. Contra: Cheapest and Coolest Russian Commercial You’ve Ever Seen

Those crazy Russkies may not know how to win a cold war, but they certainly know how to make a kick-ass junk-food commercial. It looks like it was made by a 5-year-old — sound effects and all — and yet it's one of the coolest little adverts I've seen in awhile [via Technabob]:

This is just one of several video-game-themed commercials this company's made to sell their snacks, including a cool little Pac-Man vs. Mario cartoon you can see here.

I can barely draw a decent stick person, so I'm the last person to criticize an artist's creative skill. I do think that this version of Bowser is in dire need of some stool softener, though — I'll never see Tetris blocks in quite the same way again.
