You’re supposed to identify with PC guy. He’s always having trouble with the PC, the Vista upgrade, etc. He’s a sympathetic way of saying that Windows sucks, and that in your heart you already know that.

Apple isn’t there yet. Coke has done a better job. Carl’s Junior does nothing for me.

I find Geico and Aflac extremely annoying. But nobody beats Freecreditreport.com for worst ads all time in my opinion. Half the songs make so sense.

I actually enjoy most of Sonic’s current bizarre ad campaign as well.

Apple & VW campaigns = these probably build solidarity among already captive consumers, but do they increase market share? I actually identify with the nerd who embodies PCs. I want him to punch that little hipster prick in the gut. (Come to think of it, he should sucker punch all those vapid hipsters in the VW commercials while he’s at it!)

Beer commercials take all. “Real Men of Genius” still makes me laugh. So does “Wazzzuuuup!!!”

Washington Mutual?

I’m biased towards Volkswagon and Apple. I love both ad campaigns and I love both products.

Geico – great ads.

Interesting how much of CK’s influence can be felt with some of the more “trendier” clothing places. Without CK blazing the trail, there might be no AC&F, AE, or Hollister (in my opinion, all three are successful because of CK)
