  1. I love how original and clean they all are. Most of them were kinda dumb but 1/3rd of them were very funny. Out of all of them I think I liked the "Energizer Bunny: Darth Vader" commercial. HAHAH :)

  2. For some reason, I really like watching the older advertisements. They are strait to the point, and are mostly factual. It's just a different type of appeal. And I just like them better.

  3. We are indeed growing immune to the basic appeals. Some of these are comical, but I like the descriptive way old commercials were. They used to tell you all about the product from head to toe

  4. For some reason I liked the Sony Bravia: Bunnies one the best. I think it has to do with the aesthetic sensations appeal. I liked all the colors and patterns/designs. Also that it's not pushy, like you need to buy this right now or you absolutely have to get this, but instead you didn't even know what it was for until the end.

    I don't think we are immune really. Rather since we're constantly bombarded by so many ads now, advertiser have to do more to catch our attention in a short 30 secs. Listening for 30 about their product head to toe as you put it, is awfully boring.
