Here's some of my favorite commercials


10. The Cingular commercial with the song "867-5309/Jenny"
9. Parkay Butter
8. MTV2 ninja promos (Better than the doll promos)
7. MTV promo with the snake going through a maze
6. '80's Pepsi commercial that took place in the future
There's a scene that's relevant to today with the arceologist & the students finding a guitar and looked at it as an acient artifact.  :P
5. "Smarienberg" Schmirnoff comercial directed by Michel Gondry
4. The Volkswagon commercial with the "Da Da Da" (Trio) song
3. The animated Raid commercials
2. The Mentos commercials
1. Hawaii punch commercial with the cartoon mascot

My favorite commercial is a coke commercial.

This delivery guy for Pepsi is stocking the cooler. He looks at the coke, picks it up and takes a sip. All of a suden, all of the Pepsi's fall off of the shelves and cause attention in the store. The delivery guy puts the Coke back on the shelf and walks away. The commercial is shot from a security camera's point of view and Hank Williams "Your Cheatin' Heart" is playing in the background.

That has been my favorite commercial for ages now!

I always like the Staples commercial when they are playing the song "It's the most wonderful time of the year" about the kids going back to school and the dad is wheeling around in the cart. The look on those two kids faces are just priceless.

Man, I love this commercial. I go around work singing "WE LOVE DE SUBS!!!". Those things are "sponge monkeys" from what I hear.

I also like the commercial with the yard gnome who is kidnapped and taken all over. It's for a travel company, I think. "I've been pilfered from the garden." Cracks me up when he says, "That's me on the luge, feeling, I dare say, a bit sexy!!". Ha!!

The Gap had some neat commercials in the late 90's. My favorite of those was the people skateboarding/rollerblading/ect. to The Crystal Method's "Busy Child".

Another older favorite commercial of mine is Ray-Ban's sunglasses...where it shows the sun rising, & some young vampires are wearing Ray-Ban's, except for one vampire who couldn't find his...and had later burst into flames. lol

...just to name a couple.  8)

OHH!! Are those the same sponge monkeys that Joel Veitch created? I haven't seen this advert, but he's done several, including the adverts for Crusha and Maestro.
Check out his website at www.rathergood.com.
See if they're the same sponge monkeys who do the song "We Like The Moon"- my personal favourite ;D. A while ago, my friends and I watched it on the computer during Maths (our teacher, The Artist Formerly Known As El Beardo, lets us have a five-minute break in the middle of it)... We turned the volume up really high and sang along to it.

They are indeed the same. In fact, "We Like The Moon" is the same song used for the Quizno's commercials, except the words are changed..."WE LOVE THE SUBS!!"

'Cause it is clooose tooo us,
We like da MOOOOOOON!!!
But not as much as a spoon...
'Cause dat's more use fo eatin' soup,
An' a fork isn't very useful for dat,
Unless it has got many vegetables,
And den you might be better off wid a
Chopstick,
Unlike de moon,
It is up in de sky,
It up dere very high,
But not as high as maybe
Dirigibles or zeppelins or LIGHTBULBS!
Or maybe clouds...

Oh, I love that song... I'll listen to it again!
