I'm taking my board back!
Tell me about your favorite commercials
I personally like the true men of genius and Dos Equis commercials. I also like the e-trade commercials.

Re: I'm taking my board back!
Oh, and the iPhone video chat commercial with the girl who won't show her braces until her dad sings to her. It makes me giggle.
Google usually has some nice ones but they don't get that much air time. The one where they tell the story of the guy moving to paris, meeting the girl, and eventually proposing to her is really cute. I like the one for Toy Story 3 also where the toy search things like how much they are going for on ebay and then at the end they type in take your toys to college with you.
I don't know if this one is local or nationwide, but I think it is advertising a vacation- but is the one where the one guy is running around the office and pulling around a guy on a chair who is holding onto a waterski rope and they are running into the office furniture. Something I could totally see happening at FI's work.
I also love Super Bowl commercials - the Betty White one for Snickers was awesome!
[QUOTE]I like the phone one where it's at the inauguration and then rewinds through the kid's life and stops at the guy looking at the girl on the train and he changes his ticket real fast. That one's so creative.

Haha... this one would actually be my least favorite currently out! I just feel like it says very little about the product. Every time it's on, my boyfriend rolls his eyes and says sarcastically, "Subliminal marketing - if I buy your phone, will I really become President someday?"

Wrong. If you buy the phone your KID will become President.

And also the new toyota one with the family and the Dad's giggle at the end. Listen to right after the little boy says he wants the toyota, and the dad is like "HA!" cracks me up everytime!

I like the Dos Equis "most interesting man" commercials, but only on the radio. I want to leave what the guy looks like up to my imagination! I also like Flo from Progressive. She could make for a fun Halloween costume.
I also like the Kia hamsters, even though I think the car is ugly.

About 8-10 years ago there was some car commercial out - it was a carpool and they were all holding coffee cups and kept going over bumps and the only thing they all kept saying was "dude" over and over again - loved that cause my brother's dog was named dude and he would go crazy whenever that commercial came on.
I also like the current one where the dad moves the little girl to the 1st row of seats where her brothers usually sit so they can have one-on-one time...too adorable.

The Old Spice Guy ones are pretty hilarious too:

This one is an old one, but it still makes me tear up every time I see it:

The commercial for Captain Phil Harris' last episode of Deadliest Catch made me cry every freaking time it came on. That stupid song makes me cry now, because all I can hear when it comes on is Hillstrand going, "I was lucky enough to walk the earth with Phil Harris...that's a damned fact."

I like the Dos Equis ones, but the radio ones are funnier than the TV ones.
I also like the new Allstate commercials. Especially the teenage driver one:

I'm also tearing up right now thinking about them.
[QUOTE]Oceana, that Anhueser Busch commercial is a tear jerker and it is a real shame that people don't actually do that for our troops when they come home!

They do. I've seen it happen quite often in Savannah. We have Hunter Army Airfield/Air Force Base here, so soldiers are deploying and returning all the time, and people will actually gather to applaud them, coming and going.
My favorites are the Old Spice and Dos Equis, but we DVR most everything, so I don't watch many commercials. Some friends of ours actually have a cardboard stand-up of the Dos Equis guy, and we pose with him at parties.

That's awesome... glad to hear that. I saw some soldiers in the airport a few years back and no one (including me obviously) was clapping for them. After seeing this I thought we should have been and felt bad.
