yes, that's the one
Yes, it is the ad where the guy mimics the ringing of a cellphone, eventually finds the bottle of Coke, "answers" it and then tells the girl on the bench next to him that "It's for you".

The parody, for me, comes in as it's the same Cell-C toodledoo switch-to-silent ringtone. It's umistakeable if you're a cinema-goer. :)

But the way the guy says "It's for you" reminds me of some radio ad that I've been hearing on Highveld lately: some woman is on the phone to her boyfriend and he tells her look outside and there's a guy standing by a car and he says "It's for you". I swear that the Coke ad uses the same intonation as this radio ad (for the life of me, no matter how many times I've heard it, I don't know what the ad is advertising - it's just cute).

it was good but the Coke side of life animation was way better - Del
I saw the ad on TV the other night, the concept is cool i think everyone expected it to be Cell C i almost changed the channel cause that campaign is a bit tired now but i liked the twist.

Great one ! - Marcel
I really enjoy watching the ad - the tune is familiar to all generations and together with Coke, this ad will have a much longer shelf life

I love the ad - jabz
I really think that the ad is cute, it gives me goose bumps. But when i first saw it i thought agg no cellc at it again. It a different twist to Coke ad's it will certainly go a long way.
