P&G Celebrate Moms - Best Job - London Olympics 2012 - 2:00
Being a mom is the hardest job in the world. But it's also the best.
This idea survives only by the down to earth execution of it, as it veers very close to extra-cheesy territory. We see mothers all over the world live their routines. They do dishes, wash clothes, make dinner and wake up the wee one early in the morning to take their children to practice, practice, practice. It's these moms whose dedication help athletes fulfill their olympic potential. So P&G celebrates all the moms who wash, dry, bake and wake the next generation of olympians. Everyone say aawe.
Thai Life Insurance - Silence of Love - (2011) 3:00 (Thailand)
Thai ads turn me into a puddle of sobs, or a puddle of laughter. This is the sob variety, bring kleenex, which Ogilvy & Mather Bangkok now owe me a shipment of.
The teenage daughter is ashamed, and bullied, about her mute father. She wants a "normal" dad, one that understands her, one that can hear her shout. If this ad doesn't make you cry a little, you've worked far too long in advertising and need a vacation.
Google Chrome - Dear Sophie - (2011)
Father uses gmail, google chrome, google maps and everything else to share memories of Sophie's life with her, in a series of emails sent to his future daughter. What? No, it's nothing. I have allergies. Damn you google
Orbit - The Prom Date - (2010) 5:17 (USA)
Is this a five minute skit with product placement or a really long unfunny commercial?
Jason Bateman and Will Arnett play dad and prom-date from hell/teacher respectively. It starts out lukewarm and recognisable, the parents fuss as the "just legal" daughter is getting ready for her senior prom. Enter the date from hell, who is also her social studies teacher. Along comes Orbit and cleans things up. Orbit might be able to clean the dirtiest of mouths, but I'm pretty sure this won't be cleaning up at the awards.
