These days, it’s all about marketing.
Before you get excited for the tidings 2016 has to bring, let’s take a look back at the best ads that made us LOL this year.
These Ads Will Make Your Day
Santa may have ho-ho-ho’d his way into our chimneys to deliver his gifts, but that doesn’t mean it’s time to write 2015 off as officially OVER. Before moving into the new year, let’s take a look at some ads that made us ROFL, giggle or laugh at how incredibly stupid silly they were.
Ready to give your jaws a workout?
1. #FirstDraftEver
This Avocado from Mexico ad is hilarious! The reactions of the animals, plus the commentary is crazy funny. I loved how every country picked their drafts (of course Australia picked the kangaroo), but when Mexico picked the avocado, everyone knew it was the best draft decision ever made. Watch the First Draft Ever below.
2. Clash of Clans: Revenge
THIS has got to be one of my favorite commercials on this list. Why? Because freakin’ Liam Neeson stars in it and it’s so funny! The ad shows Liam playing Clash of Clans when he goes into a monologue on how he is going to exact revenge on another player who has beaten him. The monologue itself is SNL-worthy. You gotta see it for yourself!
3. The Kia Sorento: The Mission
Who loves Pierce Brosnan? You and me both! This Sorento ad is perfect for Pierce’s action star-persona. In the ad, Pierce talks to his manager about a new movie role. Pierce plays out the story in his head when something goes…. unexpectedly. Watch the ad below.
4. Mercedes Benz: Fable
It’s the classic story of The Tortoise and The Hare, but this Mercedes Benz ad adds a twist at the end. Let’s just say that the Hare has some serious competition in the form of a Benz-driving turtle.
5. Budweiser Clydesdale Beer Run
In this ad, a Clydesdale horse shames someone for their poor beer choice. We never knew Clydesdale horses were such big Bud fans. Watch the funny commercial below.
6. Snickers: Marcia, Marcia, Marcia
This was definitely one of the funniest ads of the year. Danny Trevor plays a very hangry Marcia who just needs a Snickers to make everything better. But it gets even better when Steve Buscemi makes his cameo appearance at the end. Guess who he plays?
7. Doritos: Plane
We all know that guy who’d do anything not to have someone sit beside him in a plane. In this commercial, this guy quickly changes his tune when he sees a very pretty lady walking down the aisle. …that is, until he sees her carrying a baby. See how the scenario turns out below.
8. T-Mobile: Kim Kardashian DataStash
Kim Kardashian’s name in an ad can only mean one of two things: it’s going to be really great or really hard to watch. Thankfully, this ad for T-Mobile was on point! Kim Kardashian urges everyone to save data because as she said, losing data you paid for is tragic. Even more tragic is that losing your data means you won’t be able to see her daily outfits on Instagram. You wouldn’t want that, would you?
9. Mars Minis: Tennis
When I first watched this ad, I thought, “Is this supposed to be funny?” And then, once I saw the big reveal, I knew this ad was GENIUS. This ad will make you LOL so hard. Just wait and see.
10. Welcome to the Deli & The Green Leaf
Choosing a winner for these ads from AppleGate is one of the most difficult things I’ve ever had to do. But, instead of making that decision, I’ll let you decide.
