Best Commercials Ever

12 November 2009 11 Comments

Television commercials are an awesome  and powerful media. I consider commercials art and most people consider them an annoyances. I have compiled 6 outstanding commercials  for your inspiration and entertainment. I don’t know if it is right to have a favorite commercial but i do- let a lone a list of them.

This commercial was done for ikea and it really makes you feel for the lamp - spike did a great job on this. He made you think the lamp had emotions with out animating the lamp at all which is really hard to do.

I laughed so hard when i had first seen this commercial.  They do a great job keeping the continuity of their brand while making the commercial funny.  It is the evolution of the beer commercial - the dark ages of the wazzzzup commercials are gone.Dos Equis is also  using some funny but upscale comercials to brand their beer and engage their customers.

Not all great ads are created by professionals - some of the greatest commercials are created by user generated content. This was an ad that Luis and his friend Matt created for a Heinz Ketchup contest. They did not win but i think they should have.

Wow, This commercial is %100 on message and makes you think.This ad is one of the best i have seen for engagement and message.

Best Birth Control Ad Ever?

Yes, I think it just might be. I cant believe what they can get away with showing on TV. This is an European commercial and is not in English. It still works great and gets the message across.

    I love the birth control one, there’s also one where a german family are singing along to an american song in the car. The lyrics are very rude but of course they don’t understand, the company was a language learnign specialist I think lol

    I thought there would have to be a Bud or Bud Lite commercial amongst the top 6. I guess there is some pretty stiff competition.

    All videos are very nice But the last one is ultimate and have a great massage. thanks for sharing these.

    I would have to agree with you Pirates. But of course a list like this is subjective. I do think the 5th one is pretty powerful. Really shows people who have never been in a crash how quick and violent they can be.

    The bud lite commercials are all right but they are like every other beer commercial. They are not insightful or different. The Volkswagen on just hits you, i didn’t expect the car crash at all. My favorite is the condom one because it is so direct with its message.

    I also thought they German one was funny. But it would not have the same effect on some one who doesn’t speak English so the ad would not appeal to its target demographic.

    Hey, All videos are nice, But I like video of Dos Equis.. His beard is manly enough to take on? both Billy Mays’ (may he rest in peace) and Chuck Norris’ beard at the same time.

    Some ads are truly an art form. When they are good, they are very, very good. I particularly like the Stella Artois one.

    It has to be the advert on Motorolla–Present given to a married couple who decides to use it on their nuptial bed-botH pushing one another for the mobile—downstairs the parents having coffee and hearing noise think of something else father looking at wife who looks very EMBARASSED but Grandmother sipping her cup of tea really enjoying noise coming from upstairs BEST ADVERT IVE SEEN>
