Boss

Posted by rob on October 20, 2008 03:47 am under japan

You can’t help but notice the abundance of vending machines at every street corner, t-junction or speed hump when wandering the streets. They provide a constant temptation for me, especially the hot coffee cans.

One particular brand has caught my attention. Boss, with Tommy Lee Jones staring drunkenly at me with his powerfully weathered face I can’t help but comply and buy a can.

The older version of the above photo has mostly been replaced, except on some of the more obscurely located machines. The following photo looks more like a cologne advert for a brand called ‘Intensity’ and for some reason I imagine Tommy’s photo shoot would have played out like that scene in Lost in Translation.

Give it more.... intensity

"Give it more.... intensity"

Please be giving… more intensity!
