What's your favourite TV advert?
 

Inspired by some searching I've just done.

TV adverts get right on my nerves, and I have no love for Corporation Nike, but the Nike: Good vs Evil advert from about ten years ago is a masterpiece. The link is for the short (1 minute) version on You Tube.

Watch it, and try to guess why the nannying British government banned it.


Edit: A longer version The intro bit isn't in English, but it's a much better picture, and it's the visuals that really make it.

That is an awesome ad.

I love those bloody Geico ads.

Isn't it just? There was a longer version, but I can't find it. It's got some great footballers in too, which is a nice touch.

Yeah I was going to say the Geico cavemen.


"Maybe you should do a little research."

the red car and the blue car had a race, all the red could do is stuff his face, he eats everything he sees from trucks to big green trees, but smarter blue he took the milky way, he's lookin for a chocolate treat, fluffly and light cus he knows it fills his appetite

Oh no the bridge is gone! Red can't carry on!

but smarter blue he took the milky way

I dunno. I haven't seen any in a while. The cavemen ones were pretty funny.

I've added a longer version of the Nike Good vs Evil add at the start - it's got a much better picture too.

Seriously, it's awesome.

I saw that one a while ago when looing for another nike add. its pretty cool.

I hate adverts, but I the geico cavemen ad is funny as hell

"I'll have the roast duck with mango salsa"

I like the commercial for some job website with all the chimpanzees partying because sales are up until the guy turns the sign around and says sales are down, so the chimps just turn the chart back around. I love that.

Yeah, that is one of my favorites too. It's for Career Builder.....which is a fucking worthless site. I've had my resume up there for like 8 months and have haven't gotten shit.

wow, is that nike commercial already 10 years old!? (it has to be though... with cantona, wright, campos and kluivert still in an ajax shirt.)
i must be getting old... :(


anyway, the link below is a commercial that was on dutch television about 10 years ago. it's to advertise an english language course...

MAGIC BULLET

"dinner is always a production"

Right now I like that Renault Clio ad with the British guy and the French woman arguing which country is best. But only because the woman in it is totally amazing.

television is mind numbing

I love adverts. This is one of my faves.
