Favorite Commercials

Well, if we are waiting for our tv show or movie to return, and we don't get up, we are kind of stuck watching commercials aren't we? They can be a pain, but a few stick with us. They could be funny, catchy, artsy! Whatever it is, I KNOW I am not the only one who finds a few good ones here and there.

This is my FAVORITE commercial of all time:

I just LOVE it because it feels a little bit like a movie trailer, and also can be "overdramatic" at times, so it's sorta funny to me. And lastly, the first time I saw it I got this lovely little chill...

Alright, so last year my friends and I found this commercial very amusing.


So when Lent was coming around this year...I said to my friends, I told anyone that would listen, McDonalds was going to bring back that song. Maybe the same commercial, maybe not, but I knew I would be hearing that song again.

And voila! I was right.

That looks like fun!!! Except, I'd be a little afraid the structure wouldn't hold...

Okay...not an ACTUAL commercial...but it still makes me laugh.

That commercial was on TV here just before Christmas a few years ago. It resulted in a substantial reduction in the holiday road toll. The Commercial won many advertising awards. there is a version with the complete song 'And So This Is Christmas'.
If it makes you feel sick, its done what is intended. The idea comes from the film Clockwork Orange.

I still want to see Clockwork Orange...but haven't yet...maybe I will tonight! lol But I don't plan on drinking and driving. No problem there. I don't drink. But geesh...I'm glad it reduced that for a while...I hope that kept up! ...Probably not though. =(
