What's your favourite ad?

[Flowboy]

Bob,
There are so many points that I could help expand on, but my medication is kicking in. I spend waaaay to much time at home and have now become immune to the plethora of life insurance and funeral home ads

"Turps" Turpie saying in all sincerety "Death happens every day" Buy insurance so you wont leave the funeral people in the lurch.
And the old couple, whose daughter says "Yes it was a thoughtful thing for mum and dad to do." That's where they pay for the funeral direct and the kids don't have to worry, but more importantly, the funeral home doesn't have to worry either. They are already earning interest.

my favourite? The one where the sound disappears and the screen pixilates.

Bit like me Andy Mac the only two that are consistantly remembered are the original antz pantz ... sick em rex! and the No Nickers ad when the guy falls off the piano stool.
Olden but Golden.

Theres a couple I really like

1. Pepsi
Setting restaraunt Grandpa and Grand Daughter. Girl asks for pepsi and gets a "coke" she she then talks to the owner in a nice Godfather voice freaking everyone out and finishes with a kitchen lackey popping some buublegum that has everyone going to ground to avoid the bullets

2.Rexona (Germany?)
An ad with an insane number of stunts as people go to work

theres a few more i enjoy but wont bore you

ps where did the GobbleDock go??

The Dare flavoured milk ads,
Scene, Some yuppie city bloke who knows nothing about cars at an outback small town mechanics. The mechanic says 'Great, you'll leave here with 4 brand new tyres you dont need' The yuppies reply 'That's fine, I'll write you a check that bounces.'

The second ad starts out at an outdoor cafe with an older couple, their daughter comes along with her dropkick boyfriend, the older couple start talking to the boyfriend and ask him what he does, other than ruining their daughters life. Something or other else, then the daughter shocks the lot of them, boyfriend included by saying 'It's too late, Im pregnant'

It shows there is a huge diversity of ads over this country.
mine are the herbal shampoo starting out showing a girl with flowing curly shiney 'erbal air' then ending with a bikie struting his stuff but you wouldnt know the hair difference.

Saw the second chinese wall ad tonight.

Mother in car, daughter in back, "why did the chinese build the wall Mum?"

Shot pans to Mum, who thinks for a couple of seconds.....

Next shot shows Mum and Daughter in a museam learning the facts....

Daughter says, " I didn't think they built it to keep the rabbits out.."


Yep, liked this a lot

[Schtoo]

What do rabbits have to do with China? :confused: :confused: :confused:

I saw a flat rabbit on the road this morning, does that means they are learning to swim or something? :confused:

What is this 'TV' you speak of? And of this radio device too? :confused: :confused:


You all need to spend more time in the shed and less time watching the id10t box...

I don't want to introduce a discordant note to this thread (well I do actually because I hate ads), but does anybody else out there turn to another channel when the ad with the man with the huge nipples come on? I absolutely hate that. There was another one with a tongue that left a sleeping man's mouth and wandered off to get some beer or something.

Sorry, but I HATE those ads. As soon as they come on there's a mad scramble for the remote.

On a more positive note, there are some very clever ads out there that I really like, the first and second time I see them!

[bennylaird]

The Kiwi's had a ripper with the "Bugger" dog.

[johnc]

The Toyota ute add with the "bugger" dog rates as my favourite also.

[meansy_wood]

hey i was gonna say dat too

[Skew ChiDAMN!!]

The one with the bloke sitting in his pan dunny out back, door wide open and admiring his new roof... when out walks the other half along with guest and small girl. Don't remember the cladding brand being promoted but I can certainly empathise with the poor bugger.

(Sitting in the scrub, communing with nature and generally at peace with the world, when a couple of bloody bush-walking city folk wander through the camp... )

[corbs]

I know its not current but one of the old Dare ads had a couple of guys having lunch on a work site and the conversation goes as follows:

Guy 1 "see you have a new girlfriend"
Guy 2 "yep"
Guy 1 "whats she like"
Guy 2 "she's got a great personality"
pause....
Guy 1 "yep... mines ugly too"

Gold, why did they take that off the air

[Shedhand]

I like the one with the big dog being cool in the backseat groovin to rock music. Dunno what its sellin' but it cracks me up..
