Adverts we like

ShazGV · 13-12-2014 2:14pm

I may be on my own with this one, but I'm loving the current Meteor Christmas ads.

No-one parodies Jan Svankmajer these days.

I like the Betfair octopus advert. I think this one is fairly new:

McChubbin · 19-01-2015 4:45pm

Didn't want to start a new thread seeing as we have this one but has anyone seen the new SoMoneySupermarket advert?
OH MY GOD IT IS GLORIOUS!
I saw it 20 minutes ago and I'm still laughing my ass off. It's doubly funny if you initially mistake the guy for Vladimir Putin!
Anyways, enjoy!

Captain Red · 01-02-2015 1:15pm

I love all those Money Supermarket ads a particular favourites being the dad going on the space shuttle and the guy in the invisible car with snoop dogg at the end "Your so money supermarket you dont even know it" and those booking.com ads "look at the beach, look at the booking beach" "booking.com, booking.yeah"

Jaysis, Iggy Azalea's looking rough these days.

Snoop Dogg getting paid the big bucks to do this advert

cofy · 02-02-2015 1:07am

All the John West ads.

afkasurfjunkie · 02-02-2015 7:19pm

I love the little boy in the seat ads. Where he is promised an icecream when they stop for petrol. His expressions are adorable.

razorblunt · 02-02-2015 9:23pm

Must say I like the Clash of Clans with Larry the Skeleton.

"Don't touch that Larry".

Both the 'Clash of Clans' & 'Boom Beach' ads are pretty good.

Captain Red · 03-02-2015 10:34pm

Them Clash of clans and Boom beach ads are the best ads on tv at the moment "Good attacking Johnson" and the barbarian "ah skeletons" just briliant

FloatingVoter · 06-02-2015 6:01am

This is the ad that me, Scorcese, and Tarantino came up with over several pints of Uncle Arthur. I bullsh!t you not.

catallus · 12-02-2015 10:52pm

I like this one, it's funny.

"It's even better than that! Rachel is moving in with us!"

Realt Dearg Sec · 14-02-2015 12:07pm

This one for ebs always makes me laugh. "It's five o'clock! And I'm off on me holliers"

"Eh, down there for dancin'"

Great performance by your man.

AndyBoBandy · 28-02-2015 10:03pm

Despite not being a fan of the brand, I remember this ad from years ago was a great ad, although this being the Australian version, it seems like the music is not how I remember it from Irish TV screens years ago

Shannon757 · 28-02-2015 11:38pm

The ebuyers ad with the two action figures seeing who can hold more paper. Anyone seen it?

Lionbacker · 08-03-2015 4:44pm

Love this ad. Very creative, with the added challenge of speed reading.

Say Your Number · 09-03-2015 8:13pm

I like that Duluxe one with the weather forecasters especially them taking the piss out of Martin King and the TG4 having an attractive lady doing the forecast.

An Riabhach · 09-03-2015 11:09pm

I like this one:

amdublin · 22-03-2015 10:16pm

I like that Dulux paint one, very clever.

I looooooove the new Aldi food ad, "these are a few of my favourite things"

I want that fridge from the Aldi ad!

The new Denny's ad with the mammy getting all emotional at her daughter returning from out foreign with her baby.

I found myself with a lump in my throat the first time I saw it, and I don't know whether it was because I was hungover and the sausages featured in the ad looked scrumptious, or because those ads tend to strike a chord with me anyway

The way she says 'ohyigodthey'rehere' makes me smile every time, very cute!

An Riabhach · 07-04-2015 2:00am

I think this one is a bit of a laugh.....

castletownman · 09-04-2015 11:48pm

Probably not mainstream enough yet, but Sky aired an absolute doozie of an ad earlier as part of their golf coverage:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CdhWhgA8Y0A

Not since Monty the Penguin have I felt so many feels during an ad. Beautiful

Go Harvey Go · 16-05-2015 5:47pm

Why have Andrex ads become so bad in recent years?

Computer-generated puppies, naked men (I'm not kidding), five-year-olds being asked how clean they feel after going to the loo...

So here's an ad from happier times.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TAO8U48_ShE

An Riabhach · 22-06-2015 12:11pm

I know this ad is gettin a lotta hate on the Despise thread but I actually think tis funny.

The one where the mother embarrasses the daughter by tryin to act like a teen queen:
"Hey Abs,check out this new hotspot where all us cool kids go called the kitchen,and all the cool kids call it 'THE KITCH'....I can get you a +1...and maybe you could even bring your brother??"

HeidiHeidi · 22-06-2015 12:15pm

I've only seen it a few times but my favourite at the moment is the VW ad with Joe Schmidt.

That kid at the end makes me laugh every time.

An Riabhach · 23-06-2015 11:45am

These Specsaver ads still mke me laugh when I see them-
The one where the farmer shears the dog instead of the sheep,and especially the one with the dancer mistakenly goin into the old folks bingo club:
"Here we go....
GET THOSE LEGS UP!!
SHAKE WHAT YOUR MOTHER GAVE YOU!!" :-):-):-)

I think they've slightly shortened that one or maybe tis just me imagination.

"What sort of cheese was that?" is my favourite. Closely followed by the turkey at Christmas one.

Whoever wrote/concieved that series of ads deserves all the awards they can fit on their mantlepiece

I have to give credit where it's due in relation to the "What sort of cheese was that?" It's a great advert

ollaetta · 30-06-2015 8:54pm

Have to say this one makes me smile.

Mr E · 04-07-2015 2:08pm

My new favourite ad. Funniest ad I've seen in a long time.

An Riabhach · 17-08-2015 9:43am

I didn't like this one at first but now I grin whenever I see it...
The ad for Cheestrings where the kids are all out hiking and they're singin the marching song:

"I've got cheese for a head"
"I've got ch..ee......"
