Garfield: That's true. He subsequently recut a crisper version, though. And on the subject of recutting, my fifth choice is "Vote Different," the parody of the great "1984" commercial by Ridley Scott and Chiat\Day for the Apple Macintosh. Only in this version, the bellicose, mind-controlling "Big Brother" is Hillary Clinton.

The ostensible advertised brand? Barack Obama. The Obama campaign disavowed it. Later, the guy who created it, an Obama supporter named Phil de Vellis, had to resign from the campaign-services digital shop where he worked for pulling the stunt.
