I really like the first soccer ad, and the cola one. Although I found the shorter version of the cola one much better. The full version was a bit too long.

ah...that Pantene ad gets me every time. Love the Johnny Walker and the bakery one...I just gravitate to those kinds of ads.

While "the Cog" was good and cool, as an advertisement, I felt it didn't represent Honda as well as "the Impossible Dream".

I like Honda one since I'm biased. Watching it makes me sad though because they stopped making sports cars :(

Crazy long ads. :eek:

Coke one makes no sense? Lost me. So how did that whole adventure fix the machine?

^ Pachelbel Canon in D minor/major

The #1 ad would've been so much better if they didn't cheese it up at the end. The first three minutes were amazing...but it's hard to go wrong with Pachelbel's Canon in D Major (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pachelbel%27s_Canon)...which is pretty much one of the most beautiful pieces of music ever created.

Perhaps not as epic as some of the ads here but I think they missed the ads for the original Gears of War...with Mad World. I couldn't believe how amazing that ad was...with the soft music contrasting the war torn world and Marcus fighting that big ass spider thing.

I hate Halo 3 but goddamn, those ads were just gripping. Made you feel like Master Chief was a real war hero.
