A new Jamie Vardy mural

[Patrick]

Looks like one of those shite AI action figure memes from last year.

[SecretPro]

Shite that 

[glar84]

Oh this had potential to be something good. And that’s just a bit crap. And rubbish location 

[Wymsey]

Banksy might be a little disappointed with the facial part.

[RoboFox]

[tinpot_fox]

[PhillippaT]

Well, it could be worse  

[Libertine]

Why’s he wearing the Chelsea kit circa 04/05?

 

Not to be a negative nelly but that is absolutely Damien (Duff).

[Nalis]

Torn between thinking it's better than nothing or whether they shouldn't have bothered

[shock0ng]

I guess it's better than nothing and it's more than the club would ever even attempt. 

[JimJams]

It's just an ad.  Nothing particularly interesting about it really.

[AjcW]

It’s a bit of PR for a tv program, they’ve probably only got a licence to keep it up a few weeks. It was never going to be anything spectacular was it!  

[SemperEadem]

It’s a shame its an advert and a fad design too.

[Raj]

[Adster]

Horrific.

 

But to be expected tbf, pretty much anything from Netflix is utter trash.

Grok has made my proposed John Rudkin statue look like the love child of Nelson Mandela and Keir Starmer; given the state of much representational art this may be accurate.

Shouldn't have bothered

It's just corporate 'bantz'. A transparent attempt to capitalise on a cultural phenomenon.

 

Even the image itself is packaging and selling Vardy. It's a crass, comercialised, and cynical attempt at appealing to the Gen Z crowd and selling them their own emotional sentiment. 

 

'Hahahah look it's that ChatGPT challenge but with Vardy. It's SO six months ago but we're post irony aren't we? Hahaha like and subscribe.'

 

Someone get down there with some emulsion and cover it up. ****ing hell. Can't we crowdsource an actual decent artist to make something worthwhile.

Gen Z would hate this - it’s firmly millennial and above - just say the action figure AI craze was on LinkedIn

I didn't say it was successful or pitched right. 

 

The whole thing is a horror show of corporate illtaste and avarice. 

 

The actual concept of Vardy at Leicester deserves so much more than this and is yet another failure of our current administration.

It's not done by our administration is it?  It's a Netflix ad.

I didn't say it was. Infact, if you read my previous post it's fairly ****ing clear I'm fully aware it's Netflix.

 

The failure of our administration is to not properly acknowledge Vardy. 

 

But I suppose reading is hard. 

[damolcfc]

I thought it was Maddison 🫣

[SystonFox]

The action figure meme is at least 9 months past its sell by… why have they attempted to resurrect it for this? Absolute monstrosity
