If you have not been able to tell from my previous posts, I really like watching animals in commercials. I thought it was a nice play on the idea of the chicken sandwich having "kick." It only makes logical sense for a spicy chicken sandwich to come from a chicken that literally kicks, with even more strength than the karate kid!! Hilarious, pretty creative, and much enjoyed.

I think this commercial is very edgy. I absolutely HATE people who think it is okay to talk on their cell phones or text constantly in the middle of a conversation or at certain important events. What made it so shocking was that it was not just at a business meeting, it was at a funeral! I could not believe that he answered his phone, but I was so relieved when the squirrel jumped on his face! Cell phone karma should be a real thing.

I think this is a very effective print ad. It is a little shocking and unexpected as far as public service announcements go, but I think that since it is for AIDS awareness, it is appropriate. It deffinently catches the attention of readers and gets them thinking of AIDS.

This ad does not really impress me too much. It doesn't make sense to me. If the joy is riding in or driving the BMW, why do you have to jump in the car in some crazy or extreme way??? I think the message at the end contradicts the advertisement itself. I think to make the ad more effective it should be more focused on driving the car and experiencing joy, rather than doing weird things and jumping in.
