Cult Commercials...

[Technician]

For me, there have been a number of favourites over the years!, one that really stands out though, is the Budweiser Ad's...

The Whasssup era, was great. I suspect very few of you were not saying Whasssup at some time  or other... [tongue sticking out 'n' all!] Don't deny it!  

The follow-up had the three frogs [toads?] Bud - Weis - Er which were also pretty good...

TRUE  

So lets hear your personal favourite [you can go back as far as you like]

or indeed your favourite one liners... like:

Have a break, have a Kwik-Krap [sorry, Kit-Kat  

]

I seem to remember one that went:

Boom, Boom, Boom, Boom, Esso Blue... circa 1960's?

Does anyone remember the full lyrics for the original Pepsi ad's... circa 1970?

Lipsmackin', thirstquenchin', acetastin'... etc.

Coca-Cola came out with a fantastic alternative...

And in the case of Nescafe, a load of rubbish as well.

The old Hovis commercial with the boy and the cycle (directed by a young Ridley Scott)

And who remembers the old cinema commercials like:

Kia-Ora (with the crows... 'I'll be your dawg')

The hot dog advert where the hot-dog 'mooooos'

And the crummy animated 70's advert (forgot what it was for) that had two blokes running to a building ending on the tag 'Here, Bert... this is the place'.

 

[Mad Cyril]

Does anyone remember the advert that used to be played in local cinemas for a company that sold and fitted car stereos?

It used to have some bloke driving a maxi with a drummer, bass player, keyboard player etc. all crowded into the back of his car.

It went something along the lines of 'For the ultimate in in car entertainment you don't need to do this, get yourself down to...."
