Mirror Eggs / Pile poêle la même chose!
THE ORIGINAL? (Click on the image to watch movie) Office of National Drug Control Policy – 1998 Source : YouTube, Wikipédia Agency : Margeotes, Fertitta and Partners (USA) |

Eng “Another great example of blatant plagiarism from Middle East! Very same creative "recipe" from one tv commercial to another. Frame by frame lookalike... That's what I call mirror eggs.”
Fr « On ne fait pas d'omelette créative sans casser des oeufs? Je suppose que les Libanais auraient préféré étouffer (dans l'oeuf?) cette affaire... mais manque de chance l'occasion était trop belle de se poêler un peu. En tout cas c'est vraiment ce que l'on peut appeler des oeufs miroir! »
Be the judge!

You are very welcome!
I like your blog – love how you stick by the concept (and amazed as to how much copied stuff there is out there!)

lebanese are used to copy in all fields. they usualy copy things, put them together and make them theirs. so i’m not surprised. on the other hand, what really chocks is when they copy and pretend that their copy is better than the original… pathetic and disgusting.
