Was watching a TV show that listed the 100 most funny commercials, from around the world and though they did not list the commercials in any particular order, this video above was listed as the grand finale and to me, this one was easily the most funniest among them all.
One little surprise was that there was no commercial from India. That was a surprise bcos commercials from even countries like Thailand had found their way to the list.
This Liberty Mutual commercial kind of takes off from the concept we saw in Pay It Forward. Loved this one the first time I watched it and thus thought of posting as part of my Most Favorite Commercials series.
I am sure everyone of us have our own list of favorite TV commercials and since my list of most favorite TV commercials is a pretty long one, I have always wanted to blog about them. So, thought of posting one personal favorite of mine once atleast every 2 weeks. (It has become so much more easy to post such commercials bcos of sites like YouTube from where you can simply embed the videos in the blog) And what better ad to start with than this latest one by Apple. I have always loved their ads (from their iPod nano ads to the recent PC vs Mac series). But the one that was premiered on Oscar night for the upcoming iPhone is easily one of their best. So, here it goes the first in the series of my most favorite commercials.
This is a commercial most of you in the US would have seen bcos it is being aired very frequently now-a-days. And BTW, there are uncofirmed rumors that the iPhone might actually end up costing less - 299$ for a 4 GB phone and 399$ for the 8 GB version. The site where I read the information explained that the reasoning behind this decision was bcos of the fact when people were asked in a survery whether they would buy an iPhone for 500$, not even 1 in 10 responded positively. If the price is indeed cut, it would be great news. Lets see.
