Breaking campaigns: RedBalloon gets Top Gun treatment
Three Drunk Monkeys has spoofed 80s classic Top Gun in a new campaign to promote RedBalloon, the online gift experiences retailer.
The TVC shows a man who has always been obsessed with becoming a fighter pilot, re-enacting scenes from the film Top Gun. His long suffering girl friend then gives the everyday man the chance to fulfill his dream, with a RedBalloon gift: A flight in a fighter jet.
The TVC ends with the adrenalin junkie in the jet about to take off, with the tagline: “Give them what they have always wanted.”
The campaign has launched on Foxtel and online with 30 and 45 second versions of the ad.
