Petco's Newest Commercial

Awesome!

The music made me turn my head

The human being dragged kept my attention

The dog was beautiful and the doggy door was creative artistry!

Duh Commercials

I can't stand any of the versions of the Duh / car commercials.

This is how I see it... if you are in a conversation and you make a statement and the person you are talking with responds with 'dug' that usually translates to:

goes with out saying (stupid, dimwit, idiot, dummy, etc.)

So are these commercial implying we are inept if we don't buy one of those cars?

Question: Feeling insulted?
Response: duh

Caveman Sitcom OH Please NO

I normally write my views on commercials but I have to vent on this...

It's bad enough we have to see the insurance commercials with these ugly creatures but to take up a prime time spot for these hideous things? UGH!

Who is wasting their money on producing such an atrocity? up chuck!

Travelers Insurance

Their commercials are so intricate why is it I don't see that "it" connection that would make me look up and call Travelers for my insurance needs.

I will give them props though for the little foreign man who says in his language 'he can't swim' and then you see the guy trying to fly with his big angel wing go plop and blup into the middle of the river... now that brings a chuckle

Nissan Ultima

The only interesting thing about this commercial is the tennis shoe

otherwise I think it was a flop

Actually the rest looked like an interns first attempt

The idea to go for the simplistic

just doesn't get it done

Hello any graphics 101 student could pull this one off

SO

How much did Nissan pay?

Prudential Insurance

Prudential's Rock Solid commercial captures the attention with the compilation of life's events and rock analogies but...
*
At the very end, they didn't do the commercial justice
... Let P be the rock ... for your retirement

Should have been 'your retirement ROCK'

So for one, the last thing you think about is solid strength and two, it continues the theme of the analogies throughout

Miller Light - Not

Geeky commercial; actually it was down right stupid.

My first thought was how unrealistic and what demographic attention did ML attempt to reach. All you have to get the preferred message across is a few expensive seconds which, in this case were wasted. I only come up with kids who would be awed by the monster character made of people. Is that really who we want remembering the product Miller Light? And do they really think adults would be enticed to go out and buy a ML just because they hear 'don't go along with the crowd?' Come on marketing, grow up

Michelob Ultra - 007 Serg

Too Cool and Captivating

Michelob featuring Sergio Garcia using his slue techniques to enter the party. The lady in red wow love the hair. I didn't recognise Serg until I saw the commercial the second time around. The hair stole the show but now that I see the distinguished Serg,well...

Volkswagen Series

Great Slogan

Get into the Volkswagen and it gets into you

The 3 recent commercials are fantastic but:

1. The couple leaving the wedding could do without the blow fish face from the driver; wrote about the intrigue once before Volkswagen Convertible
2. The tow truck driver has the classic look, casted well but VW should have showed a bit more emphasis on the shocked owner; I didn't notice him until I saw the commercial for the third or fourth time - excellent choice of music. Did you notice any details? The VW driver is a drummer.
3. My most favorite though is the valet anxiety attack... The music is sexy, it was clever to pre-empted with the bad valet driver and his dates attempt to comfort him but... I so understand and can relate to the drivers issues... when you love your car ya just can't bare to hand your keys over to anyone! This one is award winning...

JC Penny's

Awesome Creativity

Today's the day to give up the nerve

I like that slogan for the commercial with the little enamoured girl

It's so cute her chasing her love doodle

How about,

The headless population

Doing the slow chase to re-dress their victims in the latest fashion

I find it necessary to give some constructive criticism: unless you pay real real close attention all the way to the absolute end, you will not know the advertising is for JC Penny's

Cisco - The Human Network

Cisco stare down was a pretty cool angle to take
BUT
I have yet to figure out what makes the Caucasian kid blink?
I would have liked that tid bit to have been more clear to the viewer

The human network ' good slogan

Northwestern Mutual

This is the one where the dad prepares his little daughter to jump off the dock with the implication it's deep. Gave me a chuckle when it turned out to be shallow.

But all the undertones of love makes this a great commercial!

Bridgestone or Nothing

Fantastic verbal slogan and the written one is too if you can catch a glimpse of it at the end

Excellent - plays out like a movie, has the intrigue and anticipation in addition to a great ending. Good voice on the narration and good background music.

Other commercials need to take notice!

I use to look forward to these when they first came out. It always seemed as if they were a Candid Camera moment type of theme but...
-
The one during the British Open & Wimbledon was focusing on the cat up the tree was pretty good until the cat cam down when the lady opened the can of food. All the people looking up should have walked over to the bench... commercial incomplete
-
The one during the French Open & US Open about the fairytale story loses attention quick. Every time it came on I knew I could go do something quick and still not miss the next potential interesting commercial. During these sport events are some that deserve to be recognized, usually there mind captivating.

Obsession ? MasterCard ?

I wrote about this commercial during the US Open
Get there Ball
I still get my giggles! Great commercial, love the music!

During the British Open I paid closer attention to details
Too Funny

Crowne Plaza - British Open

During the British Open I saw a couple of versions of this commercial
Really, the company could have came up with a better angle to get their message across, which is ......the best place to have meetings

I didn't really like all of the individuals selected for the meeting... unrealistic
BUT
Some of the dialogue was okay such as:
superstitious of yellow tee's...
talk to the right out of the box because once they are in the bag...
I putt better with pleated pants...

As an event planner, that would not make me book there... sorry
