Best and Worst adverts at the mo

The best one for me are the Sprite adverts. I love the music and the Sprite just makes me laugh. As for the worst, there are many: McDonalds stupid singing advert being just one of `em. I wont list them all as I`m sure you all hate them too so I`ll give you a chance.

I can`t remember what make of car it was for (great advert, eh) but its the Zoom Zoom advert. I want to literally KILL everyone in that advert.

The best ones are the new Pot Noodle adverts.

"Sounds dirty and it is"

There just great.

The worst one at the moment has got to be the Bernard Mathhews "Pizzzaaaaaaahhhh" one.

Don`t say "Pizza" say "Pizzzzaaaahhhh"

Hmmm, I can remember it, so maybe its doing its job?

Chewie: the zoom zoom is mazda. But, the most irritating by far is (it`s a tie) either the Iceland (buy one get one free - a high pitch voice) or Burger King (with that annoying tw*t).

As for the best, I know it`s no longer on, but I really did like the Nike World Cup ads.

Worst for me is a tie - they have a common theme though:

1: ANY ad mentioning Intel (that #$**!!# bing bong bing bong)
2: Those Danone yoghurt ads - again with a "tag" tune - "Mmmm Danone"

AAAAARRRRRRGGGGHHHHH

Best ad at the moment is Peter Kay in the John Smiths ads.
Nike football ad was also great when it was on.

Worst adverts are the ones from Freedom Finace, Ocean Finance and those Debt Buster Loans. You don`t see them that reguarly on terrestrial TV (luckily) but theyre always on Sky!

Love the John Smith`s diving one, first time i saw it i thought my sky digital had switched channels (common occurence on my sky) then p***ed myself laughing when he did the running bomb. Very clever :))

The one with Benicio Del Toro driving around in a Merc which looks like an advert for a film.

Yes, good call General Thade.

When I first saw that ad I said to my wife "It must be a sh...t film, a B-list "star" and they`re really plugging that Merc for all they`re worth..." I said worse when I realised it was just an ad - doesn`t bear repeating on this forum.. I can`t figure out the message - unless, of course, they`re trying to say that w....kers drive Merc soft-tops... surely not?

Otherwise, any bank/finance advert - the flying pigs, silly songs, and even Sam L Jackson - all make me want to puke. There are so many of them you`d think they had nothing better to spend the money on...;) The SLJ ad is particularly offensive as it looks like it was expensive (SLJ can`t have come cheap).... Hmmm, Barclays must be raking it in then...and I thought they had to lay off all those staff because they weren`t doing so well...

Top of the list, though, goes to the ads featuring Joely Richardson.... you know the one`s I`m talking about, for Lloyd`s I think. Uuugh... I`m going green just thinking about them. Give me Julian Clarey selling DAZ door-to-door anyday....

Best? The Sprite ad`s good and my daughter (2 yrs old) loves the new Honda advert. The winner ATM must go to the new Lexus - great visually and nice soundtrack... shame the car looks like a blancmange.
