What are your favorite commercials?

Mine are the Geico ones. Especially the one with the squirrel and he nearly gets hit by a car. But the car swerves to miss him and hits a tree or something. Then the squirrel meets up with another squirrel and they start giving high fives!

LOL :lol:




*cough*.....

what he said

I love the Nike Freestyle commercials

The Nike commercials are sweet, but the five alive commercial has to win for me. The one where the guy starts dancing behind the till. O god that cracks me up.

Joeiss 01-23-2002 08:17 PM

He's Henry, Clay Henry.

I think this commercial has one of the greatest jingles of all time. That, and America's new found love in firefighters (afterr 9/11), this commercial has everything to make it amazing.

Commercial

Xantar 01-23-2002 11:33 PM

E*Trade Super Bowl commercial a while ago. It was the one that just had two guys and a monkey singing something. At the end, it said something like, "We just wasted 20 million dollars."

Had to see it to understand it, I suppose.

What I really hate are the Dell commercials. That guy who goes around saying, "Dude, you're buying a Dell" is so annoying! Do marketing people think teenagers actually talk like that?

The other most annoying spokesperson in the world would have to be Carrot Top. Somehow, I suppose his act is supposed to be funny, but it just falls flat. I am definitely not going to dial whatever number it is he advertises (he's so annoying that I forcefully purged the memory of whatever he was advertising so that he wouldn't have the satisfaction of actually selling something to me).

Revival 01-24-2002 03:30 PM

Hehe, I love the one with the squirrels and the car accident too :D

Drunk Hobbit 01-24-2002 03:44 PM

My favorite one was during the superbowl 2 years ago. Forget exactly what they were advertising but there was this guy in the hospital with money coming out the wazoo. Funniest thing ever.

"doctor..what's the situation...?"
"he's got money coming out of the wazoo"
"we've got money coming out of the wazoo!"
"gimme 10 cc's..stat."
"can he afford the bills?"
"of course. he's got money coming out the wazoo."

No.. it was way different :rolleyes:

And what about those Nike ones I think where the people have teh shoes that keep making that noise when they jump... I wish real shoes did that, than I'd own a pair ;)

I like the Beer commercial where the Black Dude has a really hot girl at his house and he goes to the kitchen to get beers.

In the Kitchen, he starts dancing and shaking the beer and he comes back out to meet the girl.......

He opens the beer for her and it sprays all in her face....

Classic LOL

Haha... I read that first post and thought, jeez, that is the oldest commercial ever, I can't believe they're still showing it somewhere! Then I read who wrote the second post and realized.... Oh, it says 2002 over there.

It always gets me.

Geico for the moment, has abandoned its gekko and replaced it with a caveman campaign.

"Using geico.com is so easy a caveman could do it."
