The website and mobile movie ticketing app seems to have dropped their bag puppet mascot in favour of a new brand ambassador in the form of SNL's Kenan Thompson and his new alter-ego Miles Mouvay.
Films new super fan was created for Fandango by L.A. based ad agency Stun Creative to help highlight their innovations in ticketing and their expansion into content creation.
One thing's for sure and that's that these billboards stand out with their cheeky humour and use of special extensions to grab your attention.
As a special bonus and comparison, here's a previous Fandango billboard snapped along West Hollywood's Sunset Strip in December 2011.
Meanwhile these new eye-catching 'Miles Mouvay' billboards were snapped along Santa Monica Boulevard, Cahuenga Boulevard, Pico Boulevard and Sunset Boulevard on November 5, 2015.
Having a life-size person sit atop a billboard is a great gimmick, but it isn't a new idea as these other billboard examples illustrate, like this Kick-Ass movie billboard from 2010, these special extension billboards for The Expendables 3 from July 2014 and these recent Ted 2 movie billboards from June 2015.
And finally, here's another kernel of wisdom, always visit Daily Billboard for all the best outdoor ad campaigns filling L.A.'s skies. We are billboards biggest fan and love shining a spotlight on great ad creatives.
