Default Adverts

Whether TV, cinema, or billboard, what are you fave ads, past or present?

My favs

Past - The hamlet ads where class as where most of the carling black label ads.

Present - The new Volcano/Dino Volvic ads are funny, and the Skoda one, although its getting a bit long in the tooth now.

Cinema - The orange ads are funny.

Hmm best billboard had to be the "Hello Boys!" one But I'm in training to become a dirty old man...
TV, the Guinness surfer/horses one is rightly an artistic classic, and the old Dunlop one with Venus in Furs playing to fat blokes painted silver, ball bearings rolling down the street and pianos falling off bridges.
Hmm, the Boddingtons "Tarquin, are your trolleys on right way round?" ones were dead funny too.
Tyranosauras Alan has to be a personal fave too, and a couple of years back when folks off b3ta.com were getting ad contracts and rolling out kitten band adverts.

EDIT: Oooh, nearly forgot the Reebok "Belly's gonna getcha" one

Beer adverts for me, all the castlemaine ads were cool plus who did the one with the german guard on the dam wall as the dambusters were coming in, they're dropping the bouncing bombs and hes diving around like a goalie fending them off ?
