12 Ads That Should Be Movies

We're gonna need a bigger telly....

Captain Birds Eye's Fishfingers

The Ad: Cap'n Birds Eye commands a ship whose crew is made up entirely of small children. All they seem to do is sing, dance and eat fish fingers. We want that life.

Oddly, Birds Eye chooses to be captain of a galleon rather than a fishing trawler. Where does he get all that cod?

The Movie: Cap'n Birds Eye is a very bad man.

He sails the seven seas, stopping at various ports and stealing children to use as slaves aboard his ship, The Fish Finger.

Don't worry, no funny stuff. He just hates kids.

They're too scared to rise up against him - he's quite a scary man, and the ranks are divided. There's a lot of snitching going on.

The film follows one small group's efforts to overthrow the evil Birds Eye and return home.

The Director: Steven Spielberg reclaims his sea legs and does his thing (with a nice big budget).

The Cast: This is the movie that will launch the careers of the next batch of unknown child actors. Robbie Coltrane gets himself a mighty big, white beard and terrifies the living daylights out of all the kids. Hagrid he ain't.
