HEY! I'm a media student and for my coursework I need people's opinions on funny alcohol adverts. I would be grateful for your views on adverts and whether you have any particular favourites. Thanks for your help! =D
It was ages before I realised it was a carling advert.
******************************** John Smith: So what am I then? Nothing. I`m just a story.
Doctor: You`re an echo. That`s all. A TimeLord is so much more. A sum of knowledge; a code. A shared history. A shared suffering. Only it`s gone now, all of it. Gone forever.
Awwwww I loved the Heineken ad with the bear from years ago ...and the Guiness one where they did the funny dance (I think it was guiness anyway) do do der der der der der der der do do
Oh and I like the 'do you have a WKD side' adverts
Is that the one currently showing that has a rubber floor so that the blokes won`t break a bottle, and a small dog jumps off a chair and is bounced clean out of the room?
The Carlsberg ads are quite funny as well. "Carlsberg don`t do Banks/Clubs/ Flatmates. But if they did, they`d probably be the best in the world"

Nope, it`s a budweiser advert.

Except when they throwing another shrimp on the barby, holding a tinny of the old Fosters Amber Nectar in the other hand.
Which alcohol had the catch phrase "It`s what your right hand`s for"?

I don't think any of them are very funny. I think at the stage our society is at with alcohol misuse we should be heading towards a full ban on alcohol advertising.
The health promotion adverts which send out the dangers of alcohol consumption are much better!
Aside from that sensible view! I think Guinness did a great job, they kept a theme and you never knew what the advert was advertising - I.e the one with the horses in the sea. Not so much funny, but very visual.
