Funny International TV ads
You can add your favorite too if you wish, at the bottom of this page. What makes a TV ad funny is sometimes personal of course, and the choice is mine, but I am sure you'll enjoy at least a few in the list. International TV ads can be obscure if you don't have the key to it, so whenever necessary I'll provided some background.
Movies are made to be seen
Cars and Beer TV ads
Beer TV ads are most of the time following pretty much the same pattern: a group of alpha men drinks beer surrounded by bimbos, with various local, regional or holidays variants.
The targeted audience must have drank too much of the product anyway to care or understand anything else I guess.
As for car commercials, they are probably among the most difficult to do because they need to focus on performance and look. So they usually end up in just showing a beautiful car, on a empty road, driven by successful people. Then the ad points out a few technical aspect of the car, on music performed by the most promising Indie group.
I want to share with you a few different beer and car ads: original, fun, intelligent.
Hope you enjoy!
The Smart
The Peugeot 206
Warning!! shocking beer ad!
To the very basic beer drinker, this may cause dizziness and various other sickness.
Who said libraries are boring?
This is my favorite from the many they have done.
I just can't stop laughing at this one.

If it existed we'd have it
Here's 5 "If it existed we'd have it" ads from Reno-Depot. Reno-Depot is a hardware store in Canada (Quebec). These ads are parodies of the cheap commercials you have on those home shopping channels.
