Well, There are some really cool comercials out there. Lets share them.

Bouncing Balls Ad
Probibly my favourite ad ever. That was really done to. Must have been hard to clean up.

I've loved every single Geico commercial, from the very first "press conference" ad to the new "we hired a celebrity" ones.

The BMW films are also good. I love all of them.

They recently filmed a new Bravia ad which looks similarly phenomenal. The ad isn't out, but you can see amateur footage of the filming here. That's 18,500 gallons of paint.

I love the bouncy balls one simply because of the song.
Jose Gonzalez pwns. They used that same song for a LED throwies campaign.

For some reason, I really enjoy that Starbucks ad where a hair band follow around a guy getting ready for work. They sing his name to the tune of "Eye of the Tiger."

And although a lot of people hate 'em, I enjoy the new Mac ads, which has the PC guy as a nerdy engineer and the Mac guy as a slacker. I work in an engineering company, and I meet both types of people frequently, and the interplay between the two is actually pretty genuine. I love how thye do get along, and Apple doesn't totally slam PCs, admitting that PCs do have advantages over Mac as well.

I own both a Mac and a PC, by they way. :)

I think the entire "Snakes on a Plane" Ad Campaign is brilliant. Take a B-Movie idea, make a movie with SLJ and that fat guy from "Keenan and Kel", leak information every so often, and make the movie seem soooo bad, you just has to see it. Brilliant.
