Let us discuss the best, the worst, and the most memorable of television ad spots. And, if we're feeling academic, we might even fit some words about what works and what doesn't in advertising.

Manipulating people's emoitons in a political campaign like this is bullshit, but that doesn't mean it can't be pretty damn effective.
it is one of my favourite ads of all. time.
also remember those canadian health + safety vids

Not actual ads, but I just linked in in the auspax thread so may as well here too:
kpop appreciation station i also like to tweet some
That is pretty cool.
Yeah it was linked in the AusPAX thread and the ensuing discussion made me wonder if it was worth its own thread.
But this PSA has all the hallmarks of a memorable and effective ad.
No scare tactics, so it makes it honest.
No preaching... instead it just presents a situation we can all relate to, which means we are more likely to follow its advice.
A touch of humor and some really quotable lines, so that it's memorable and we're more likely to share and watch it.
And best of all a non-patronising tip of the hat to someone doing the right thing (as opposed to slamming someone doing the WRONG thing, which never works with young people).
It's awesome.
ugh

Yeah, it definitely can't be narrowed down to just one thing. Also, there's something amusing about these kind of PSAs
Even if their heart is in the right place
Well this one time, when I was fourteen, I broke into my dad's study to show my friend around. My dad was the mayor and the chief of police at the time. He liked books and overstuffed furniture and also unsecured loaded firearms
Anyway long story short I murdered this friend and then claimed my grip on reality had been weakened by all the reefer I'd been smoking
Although it might have been all that acid I took
ive just seen/heard this and i find it really funny
is it an old/tired thing???
drug dealers are dorks.

Yeah, the whole problem of "How do I do the right thing while still being cool?" is something just about any kid is going to have to deal with sooner or later.
It's really awesome that they did that.
well the ad is from new zealand
so I reckon it's been quoted to DEATH over there
being that llama's from new zealand, etc
it's the kind of thing that in new zealand would gain immediate memetic status

The Panda Cheese commercials are glorious.
This one always gets to me. Given the absoultely miserable relationship I have with my father (who is a pretty horrible person) it probably hits me a lot harder than it should.
this reminded me of my second favourite ad ever
I remember this one! Good times.
And Gatsby, that Walker ad looks impressive, but it halts at the 2:24 minute mark for me.
