Movie "Orphan" depicts modern house

The setting for the movie Orphan is a modern house, a bit implausible as its the home of an architect with a young family and I can attest to the fact that young architects with familys very rarely get to live in a large self designed custom house like this. At a basic level though they are using the modern house to sell the idea that this is a bright and upcoming family. But the movie is so incredibly bad I’m not too keen on adding it to the blog. Thoughts? Have a look.

Volkswagen is on a modern roll

Volkswagen is running a series of ads set in a modern neighborhood. A reader pointed us to one featuring a sedan, but we know there is another one running for the VW mini van. If you spot that give us a heads up.

update: Good news - we’ve posted all of these thanks to help from reader Lesley and her blog MidModRedo

Verizon stiffs the cable guy

A verizon ad hawking their video service mocks a cable guy going door to door. He’s calling on a person with a handsome modern house, or at least as much as we can tell from the front door. Have to come up with a video embed.

update: shorter version of this ad found and posted.

update: the video is no longer at the posted location, looking for another source.

update: and its back again!

Target ad, party shed

Just saw a Target ad that showed a bunch of hipsters having a swinging time in a glass walled shed roofed house, or shed. Set at night, end scene pulls away to the place glowing like a lantern. Have to hunt that down - any help?

update: the ad shows them playing a Wii dance game.
