Especially when it comes to boring things like airline safety procedures. Yes, it’s serious business, but it’s also important to not take yourselves too seriously… and New Zealand Air has done just that with their new safety procedure video:

I don’t know why, I mean, I majored in Advertising for cryin out loud. Plus, that’s really the only reason why I watch the Superbowl (and anything on ESPN for that matter).

Here’s a great one from Coke for the FIFA World Cup in 2010. (Leave a comment below with your thoughts on these)

An older one from Captain Morgan. Great execution:

Great concept from Heineken

The 2010 Emmy Nominees for Best Commercial all in one. I believe Old Spice took home the award… they should have anyway:

Another emotional envelope from Coke:

Probably one of the sexiest commercials I’ve seen:

I remember watching this one in college:

It was a trip that changed my life.

I had wanted to go for so long that when the opportunity came along, I took it. I can’t wait to go back again and maybe stay a little longer :) When you see this video you’ll understand why I fell in love and left part of my heart there.
