Loved this commercial! It was very amusing. The little girl had WAY more rhythm than I do. I thought it was a creative way to show off the product and the product placement was good as well. I love an entertaining commercial.

The Girls on the Run commercial was adorable. The story behind the organization was great. It is always refreshing to see organizations geared towards the betterment of individuals, especially young children. I really liked this commercial.

#16 Obamaville

I really dislike politics. Everything is geared towards attacking the individual rather than their platform. It is completely disgusting. There are different ways to make a point aside from taking jabs at someone else's character in an attempt to make you look like a more suitable candidate. This video was unreal. I almost could not fathom how or why someone would take the time to create such a disturbing video just to make a point to not re-elect President Obama. It was completely ignorant, I did not like it at all.

This Trident ad is something I had never seen before. I guess people really do agree that sex or suggestive images really do make a product sell. I am not sure what the purpose behind this specific image is but I am not sure if it does the product any justice.

I adored the format of this commercial. The way it started did not indicate that it would be a commercial geared towards the prevention of cancer. Each person's individual story made the commercial that much more amazing. I even started to cry when the content got more personal and they started talking about people they knew that passed away. This commercial was well done and I feel as though it definitely sent a powerful message.

#13 Dark Knight

I thoroughly enjoyed the first Dark Knight, it was rather entertaining. I did not know there was going to be a sequel. The previews look very promising. I am a sucker for a great action movie so I will most likely be making a trip to see this one.

#12 If you could see yourself

The commercial was very powerful. Rape is a major issue in the world. Some may feel as though this commercial would be inappropriate for everyday publication but I do not feel as such. If anything, it may make people feel uncomfortable but it is a serious issue and should be taken as such. I felt as though this ad was well done.

Cosmopolitan is definitely one of the more risque magazines of today. However I do occasionally pick one up. The cover of this particular issue is rather interesting. Selena Gomez is gracing the cover. Of course she is beautiful on the cover but when I think of Selena, I think of her as a Disney Channel star. Wizards of Waverly place is where I envision her, not on the cover of Cosmo with a low-cut dress on. I am sure a lot of parents would say the same thing but I know that she will not be on this show for the rest of her life. Some younger kids may look up to her as a role model, so I can understand why it may be seemingly controversial for some to accept it.

#10

I absolutely adore Google Chrome. In fact, I have completely stopped using Internet Explorer as a browser on my computer. The commercial itself was completely indicative of the generation we live in today, everything is geared around technology. The possibilities are endless with modern technology and this commercial shows exactly how it keeps us connected. I loved this commercial!

Pathos

These ads always tend to tug at your heart strings. So much so that I can never fully watch the commercials.
