Favourite TV advert

[Sting]

Me personally I LOVE the British Gas adverts with the little flame characters. One playable one I found here: http://www.visit4info.com/static/advert_pages/49461.cfm?back_page=advertiser_pages/BritishGas.cfm

but lots of others that you have to register to watch: http://www.visit4info.com/static/advertiser_pages/BritishGas.cfm?return_page=com_b.cfm

I love the Ford advert (I think it's Ford).

Wouldn't it be a shame if Birds didn't use their wings (or something similar to that).

Right now I'm loving the Zantac commercial where the guy answers the door to his apartment and gets handed some Zantac by the delivery guy, then he looks into the hall and sees all the delivery guys lined up with his favorite fod. That one is splendid.

On a slightly related note, anyone in the UK will be pleased to know that one of the Picture Loan adverts was banned yesterday. You know the one involving a woman with a fake jordie accent? Yeep.



Admittedly that's far from a favourite TV ad, but I'm just so happy it's got banned that I had to share the news

 

[Sting]

Why it banned? just cause of a fake accent?

No.

I saw this for the first time about a week ago, which was surprising because apparently it's quite old. Anyway, this had me and my friend in stitches for at least 5 minutes - Snickers Mr. T advert:

 

[Solid Lifters]

I posted that a while back. That never aired here in the States. The reason: Soccer = Football.

Apparently it was misleading, in that it made getting a £25,000 loan look like a simple process. I prefer to believe that they chopped it because it was so annoying.

I can't find it anywhere, but have you guys seen those 2008 Chevy Malibu commercials? In one of them, bankrobbers seemed to get surrounded by the police right in front of the bank. But the robbers are in the current gen. Chevy Malibu, and the cops don't even notice the robbers in this boring car, run right passed them into the bank, robbers gets away?

In the second(and the third), a jogger runs right into the parked current gen Malibu, as she didn't see it there. In the sequel, she gets up and runs right into it again. At the end of these commercials, they show the upcoming '08 Malibu. I think they call it the new Malibu that people would actually take notice or something like that. 👍

Let me add this(I just saw it again on TV):

 

[Solid Lifters]

I have two; one that's been posted in the comedy section before, and one that would never air today.

"BUGGER!" Brilliant. 👍 I like the old skool Dick Tracy guns, too.

GameStop seems to always make some pretty funny commercials. I keep seeing these on G4 lately:





and here's a classic one from them:

Just copy the YouTube video file name (it's the combination of letters and numbers that follow the "="), then press the "YouTube" button icon in the GTP editing tool bar, and paste the copied file name... Voila!

Hands down, the Nike Leave Nothing football ad:

The music is from Last of the Mohicans. That last shot with the ball, man it is something else.

PS3 Universe of Entertainment TV Spot

Total awesomeness. It makes that 360 commecial kinda... soft.

That is an amazing commercial from a visual standpoint. I'd love to see an HD version of it and freeze frame several of the cuts just to try and figure out all the different games that are referenced in the CGI images. 👍


On the subject of PS3 commercials, the "sketch" promo is one of my favorites:



Here they are seperately:

• PlayStation 3 spot - Blu Ray
• PlayStation 3 spot - Gaming
• PlayStation 3 spot - Digital Library
• PlayStation 3 spot - Network
• PlayStation 3 spot - Connectivity
• PlayStation 3 spot - Sixaxis

I hate to admit this, but I really like this advert for 118 118...



I HATE this advert though... it's far too creepy

 

[Solid Fro]

I suppose 118 is like 411?

At 1:40... even The Stig calls 118!

BASF : Dear John ad.

 

[RacingGameFan22]

My personal favorites are these two (the first one is the funniest, in my opinion).
