seen any good comercials lately?
i think to this day the best comercial i have seen is this one (http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=1134326043265974115&q=Volkswagen)
too bad other companies cant grow a pair and actually make some good comercials without worrying about offending someone.

Lol, that's good. :)
Anyone seen the xenodrine commercials? They basically just insult you non-stop about being fat...for a skinny person, it makes me feel better.
My friends and I love this one (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cEmz16s7XiQ&mode=related&search=).

hooray beer!
I ahven't seen any good commercials really, but that is probably because I avoid them.
There was one the other day that made me wonder what they were thinking by doing what they did (which would make it a good commercial because gettign someones attention is the point) but I completely forgot what it was about (which might make it a bad commercial, although I have a horrible memory oso maybe not)
The Honda "Cog" one will always be the best.

I like the Snickers, Why so blue, panda bear? commercial. I don't know why. I guess just seeing a woman popping out of a Snickers.

That Red Stripe commercial makes me glad I can't drink. If I go around shouting hooray beer, I'll find someone to shoot me.

If I were only six months older, and knew where to purchase that brand of beer, I would, just because of how awesome that add is.

I'm not sure whether you have Cillit Bang where-ever you're from but to be fair, I laugh at just the name...for obvious reasons...
All UK people will know 'Barry Scott' he's actually turned into a bit of a legend (laughing stock)...
HI IM BARRY SCOTT...TRY NEW CILLIT BANG LIME AND GRIME...BANG..AND THE DIRT...IS GONE...

There have been some creepy commercials on lately.
First, there were the disturbing animals advertising G4:
The deer (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YxNoWvhvaJ8&search=g4%20spank%20deer) that could make everyone you've ever loved disappear forever, the calico-colored guinea pig (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jI-ObHzkw78&search=g4%20spank%20pig) that could eat your kidneys, and the butterfly (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6NzO2yJ_PtY&search=g4%20spank%20butterfly) with the horrible bag.
*shudder*
Then there are the Sprite sublymonal (http://www.youtube.com/results?search=sublymonal&search_type=search_videos) ads. "Don't worry, it'll only affect your brain."
And then, the worst of them all:
HEAD-ON. APPLY DIRECTLY TO THE FOREHEAD!
HEAD-ON. APPLY DIRECTLY TO THE FOREHEAD!

Huh? Why not? I know it's a bit longer than most ads, but it's really cool.

The beauty of that advertising campaign was that the ads told a story. It was really popular in the UK.

In the US, commercials are short and either stupid or insulting...nothing deep about it.

Are the rest of the ads from that campaign available to give that one some context?
I was amazed...
You don't see ads like that?
I like this from Bridgestone Tires

I told you my favorite was a Snickers Ad with a girl popping out of a candy bar wrapping and asking, "Why so blue, Panda Bear?"
No... I'm not sure where you're from but all the ads I see are completely dumbed down.
I also really like Rutger Hauer.

This is an ad I really like. Not because of the content itself, but because I think it does a really good job of getting the message across.
Same with this one:

I really wish. I have been searching. But there were others, with him standing on the balcony you saw, looking out at the mountains, playing chess, etc, really cryptic stuff. Playing the demonic gothic timelord basically. He was born to play the role he played in those ads. It's the best acting he has done apart from Bladerunner. Hitcher and stuff just doesn't compare.

I really like the drunk driving and seatbelt ads from New Zealand.
Unfortunately a quick search didn’t find any, but the tend to be very realistic and bloody.
