Subject: Your favourite commercial

Posted by: TheRambler
Date: Apr 22 12

Mine is the Citroen advert with an orchestra which looks like it's playing a Marilyn Manson track called Doll Dagga Buzz Buzz Ziggety Zag. It's superb and I can't get the song out of my head. Check it out.

I still almost remember word for word the Maypo commercial from the '50s. I also recall we hated the cereal.

Don't like beer, but do like almost all of the Budweiser commercials, especially the frogs and the Clydesdales.

There was a funny one a while back that I can never find it so I can't really prove it's existence, but it was for HDTV. The announcer said "HDTV is so real you may even get confused" and there was some guy sitting on his couch and he looked over to his cat and poked it. I guess he was getting lost between TV and reality. I just found it funny, but alas I can't find it anywhere.

There was an advertisement shown over here in the UK for a soft chocolate confection called 'Rolo'. For many years the advertising angle for 'Rolo' was 'To who would you give your last Rolo?' with the answer being, no-one.

Imagine a carnival marching down a wide avenue with crowds cheering either side. A young boy in the crowd teases an elephant by waving his last Rolo in front of the animal and, as the elephant extends his trunk to accept the sweet, the young lad quickly puts in his mouth, chews and teases the animal.

Cut to thirty or so years later and the young lad, now a grown man is watching a parade move down the very same avenue... As he stands there eating a packet of Rolo's, an elephant's trunk suddenly swings into shot and catches him a cracking blow to the side of the head. The animal responsible is then seen carrying on its way down the road shaking its head.

Brilliant!

Geico Commercials are great for years now.

My current favorites have to be Sprint though, with James Earl Jones and Malcom McDowell.

I enjoyed the Hulu commercials which had celebrities implying that free, legal, and quality streaming television and movies were part of an evil plan.

Your favourite Ad was used here in Australia some time back Sister Seagull but not for Rolo's - I just can't bring to mind now what the products was but probably it was for something the same company produced and marketed here in Australia. It was brilliant.

This ad for Volkswagon probably goes back about 35 years, or so.
The great line, spoken in front of a snow riddled backdrop, had the voice-over say:
"Did you ever wonder what the man who drove the snowplow drove TO the snowplow"?

Of all time- might have to go with the Apple commercial 1984 commercial for ultimate iconic status

I also like the EDS commercial of the cowboys "herding cats" Because I have several cats, I know how difficult it is to wrangle them when you have to take them to the vet.
