It's all ---That which is odiferous and causeth plants to grow---. They found a rock that looked like a person or something similar. Nothing can live on a planet with no oxygen. Nothing that we know of anyway.

This is not life as we know it. Anyway, it must like beer.

Actually this commercial wouldn't work if it was in dutch. We never tanslate anything, so a control tower scene like this has to be in english to be "authentic".

And I think that it was for the Dutch market only really. Unless they changed the neon sign above the "bar" in other languages....

"Biertje ?" is about the shortest way to ask anyone if he/she would like a beer. So I guess this was really aimed at the Dutch market only.....

Anyway, you can clearly see that the poor Mars-woman is on her knees, desperately reaching out for a nice cold beer after all those years without............. :D


B.t.w. I hate that horried Dutch accent of the bloke "nauw wi weight"...Probably deliberite I know, but I hate it, sounds like our average prime-minister talking English....

Lol, yeah that makes sense. Guess they can easily change that.

I once noticed soemthing similar in an ad for an Audi A6. The one with the car driving along a railroad track. In Germany the car had german license plates and on Dutch TV it had dutch plates.
