Beer Ads
I really need to do a post about how Clive took at least 10 years off my life on Monday, but since I'm not quite over it yet I thought I'd give you this instead. Aussie's love their beer and have lots of ads to prove it:
My brief thoughts on each (without giving them away in case you read before you watch) -
Number 10: The song is the VB music, and I think we've all done the bottle-blow (god that sounds wrong) on occasion. Cute ad, and fairly recent.
Number 9: Kinda gross, but it's got a good beat.
Number 8: Meh. Don't hate it, don't love it. Maybe because I don't have a penis.
Number 7: Pretty funny, but not the funniest of the Hahn ads along this line.
Number 6: Very cute and good choreography. I love the look on the truck driver's face.
Number 5: All about the Aussie shout. Very blokey.
Number 4: Love this one... except for the flying crotch shot. Could do without that, but overall it's fantastic.
Number 3: Another favourite. The sight of the flying animal - elk, caribou, whatever - as it zooms into the clouds cracks me up. I don't know why, but it does.
Number 2: OK, Bundaberg Rum isn't technically a beer, but it's a great ad. "We wouldn't suck at sport." Hee! Personifies the Aussie attitude toward the English.
Number 1: I've said it before - Best. Beer Ad. Ever. It's freaking huge.
And no, I don't drink beer.
3 Witty Remarks:
Loved them all. I do wish Americans had a better sense of humor. And you are right - it's just so BIG.
I love the number one ad. I always have. I used to imagine some ad guy sitting in his office cursing the product and ad cause he didn't have any ideas so decided to put all of his thoughts down in those lyrics.
A couple of these I haven't seen before but I have always loved the Flashdance ad, too. So funny.
Classics! Gotta love a good beer ad. They beat tampon ads, that's for certain lol.
I can still remember the old VB ads from when I was a kid. Mind you, they haven't changed that much since then.
