This has to be one of the best anti piracy films of all time. It features Oregon Trail and Carmen San Diego. Sorry for the crappy start of the video. When I transcoded it to a modern video format the beginning became a little distorted.
Just jump to about 2:00

The Ugoff is hungry!
From Wikipedia:
Ugoff is a fictional character, played by actor Daniel Raymont, in a 2004 ad campaign for Burger King directed by Roman Coppola with music composed by DEVO singer Mark Mothersbaugh.[1] It was to promote the new “Fire-Grilled Salads” and the paper “Salad Pouch” which was used to keep the chicken and shrimp warm for the salad entrées. It was created by the Miami advertising agency Crispin Porter + Bogusky.
Notes:
In the 1952 movie Singin’ in the Rain, Gene Kelly does his famous dance routine along the street and by a lamp-post. For this commercial a replica of the Singin’ set was built, and three different dancers were filmed doing some modernized Gene Kelly moves. Then Kelly’s face was superimposed onto the new footage.
One of the modern dancers is David “Elsewhere” Bernal, notable for his pop-lock/liquiding style. (Pretty much everything in this ad where it looks like his body is made of rubber)

Created by ad agency Crispin Porter + Bogusky in Miami, Florida, Ikea’s quirky “Lamp” commercial won the Grand Prix award in the “Film” category for the world’s best TV and cinema ads at the 50th Annual Cannes Lions Advertising Festival.
