We don't just have a fluffy cloud. We have a fluffy cloud that goes, "Yeah!" And this isn't just a falcon. It's a rock and roll falcon. "It's good to be back in Boston! Yayuh!"

Don't forget, "We don't just blow bubbles...we blow bubbles with kittens in them." :D

LOL@the new one:

And what is it, pinata night? Right after that, the Hub played the VW pinata ad.
Well, the [ VIDEO ] tags don't seem to be working for me. Guess I shouldn't have ignored that message at the top of the page about the editor mistakenly changing.

The new Allstate Insurance commercials make me howl with laughter, actor Dean Winters (of OZ fame) plays 'Mayhem' a suave suited douchebag who takes great glee as he intentionally sabotages people's driving. :laugh:
The latest one where he acts as an outdated GPS is hysterical..."Ah turn left." CRASH!!! "Recalculating!" :laugh:

I love the outdated GPS one. The thing that makes that ad really funny is that in new runs of it, a large text at the bottom:

"Do not try this on your own, this situation is simulated"

Or something similar. It cracks me up an insurance commercial having to further protect itself against total idiots as you see the guy lean against the dash "Turn Left" "Turn Right"

My kids are CRAZY vocaloid fans. That's not just a "final fantasy character" That's Hatsune Miku! She's one of the biggest pop stars in Japan right now; her concerts get sold out before they get going.. Youtube and check "Hatsune Miku World is Mine" and you can see it live, in 1080P

I'm a Hoodie Ninja? I'm a Final Fantasy Character honda-lover?

I never cease to be amazed how far removed I am from teen culture! :)

Here's her big breakout commercial. She actually performs this in concert:



Toyota pokes fun of how popular her efforts at selling vegetable juice are at the end of the ad above.



The song sold to Toyota is this one, her performance in concert is pretty stunning stuff:

Ah. I had no idea. But is she a real person, or a cartoon (kind of like the Gorillaz)?

But I totally need some nipple stars now. :)

I like the one where office workers standing around eating tacos, and the black guy walks up and asks, why he didn't get notified about the tacos, "I like tacos" and why did they invite Eric? "You invited Eric? I though Eric gave you the creeps", then he gets the late Text message. That one kills me every time.

A friend of mine at work showed me some Tom Tom commercials with Darth Vader and Yoda. Funny stuff.

Some of these are good!

I liked this mini cooper advert, it made me really want to get one!
car adverts can often be really cool, the problem is they are always on everywhere, they are so inescapable!
