I don't know if you guys will remember this one. It was from 12 or 13 years ago. It was a Lays Comercial, and these eskimos were sitting around, and one had a bag of chips. The other eskimo wanted some chips, so the mo with the chips said, If I give one to you, I have to give one to everybody. And the Camera pants out, and it's just snow everywhere, and nobody was there. Pretty funny.
Red Stripe. Hooray beer! That Pepsi commercial from 7 or 8 years ago where the Coke delivery guy being filmed on security camera tries to sneak a Pepsi, and all the shelves collapse. All to the tune of "Your Cheatin' Heart". Those commercials with Don Nelson trying to learn the languages of his players and Nowitski says "schiessen" (or however it's spelled), and Nelson flips through his translation dictionary: "Schiessen? Shiessen?" The Planters nuts commercial that starts with the guy pointing at a woodpecker and quickly saying "Bird." Anyone remember those Sprewell ads (I think for Converse) with that guy saying "owns it"--"Three point land in Phoenix? Owns it! San Antone? Owns it! Ow-ow-ow-owns it!"
"i have called shotgun 11 hours before a roadtrip" from the "here's to accomplishments" coors commercial is the best line going. i have liked all nike commercials until the most recent "there's more fast out there" set. weird, i just heard "bittersweet symphony" on the radio today and was just remembering that i was introduced to that song through a nike commercial. miller high life and bud light commercials are always great. "this is sportscenter" commercials are always great. but hands down my favorite commercial ever was the first terry tate: office linebacker commercial from the last super bowl. i laughed so much at that one it was ridiculous. and me and my roommate have a dvr, so we rewound it and watched it about 5 more times in a row. epicly funny.
Pretty much any beer commercial. Like mentioned before, the Miller High Life commericals are great. The Rockets commericals are good too. I say that because I get to see the Rockets kind of behind the scenes, they would be better but I see them 100000 times cause I rarely miss a moment of Rockets action.
Man, for all the people here who love the beer commercials, how in the world did the "wingman" get passed up? I love that one. I cant remember for which beer though (coors?). "so grab her a beer that's y you're here mighty wingman. you're taking one for the team so your buddy can live the dream. WINGMAAAAAANNN!" Also, there's that great FedEx one where a business meeting is taking place trying decide how best to save on costs. A junior guy speaks up with his idea (use FedEx) and the room goes silent for a few seconds. The boss speaks up, does a hand gesture, and says exactly the same thing, and everyone agrees with enthusiasm. The junior is incredulous and says, "You just said the exact same thing I did but you did this" *imitates the gesture* The boss says "No I did this" *does the gesture correctly* Everyone agrees it makes all the difference. Okay then, i've bored yall enough.
The new sonic commercial where the kid drives his father's car and say's what's up to the two girls in a convertable. I was so stoned that I laughed my ass off the first time I saw it.
Has anybody heard the new Sobe commercials on the radio? It's this guy who sounds like he's from Hawaii or somewhere saying stuff like: You should try Sobe Dragon. It give you energy like karate guy. When your girlfriend ask, "Why you acting like dragon?" you can say, "I not acting, baby." I laugh out loud when I hear these.
Damn...who woulda thought I would miss commercials. I got a tape of some NBA playoff games and I saw that ad about Don Nelson learning all the languages...that was pretty funny As for best campaign, I think SportsCenter takes the cake. They simply do not make a bad commercial...there are so many classic ones...Gheorghe Muresan stands out in my head for some reason. I always thought the Nike's help-group for fast people was always good. "Hello, my name is Kenny Lofton, and I'm...fast" VW always has good ads, too.
I think, overall, Jack In the Box has some of the most clever/funniest commercials out there. Their marketing director needs a raise. The current one on the radio has to do with the owner of a French restaraunt calling in and complaing about Jack stealing his idea for a Bistro sandwich. So the French guy says to get back at Jack, he is going to put a drive in window in his restaraunt (which in the commercial, is called "Shea Rude") and serve burgers. The funny part is, the guy can't pronounce burger, and instead, pronounces it "boo-ger". Funny stuff.
