It’s an overall fun commercial, but it’s the rockin’ Chinese granny at the end who makes me laugh.
One of the things I love about being here is seeing great commercials in a foreign country. Australia has far fewer people than America so they don’t have the unlimited production budgets a lot of our commercials have. But that makes the great ones stand out even more.
McDonald’s had a wonderful, heartwarming commercial last time we were here, and this time they have a great, fun, feel-good commercial cut to Bon Jovi’s “Livin’ on a Prayer.” Here’s the :30 version.
Here’s the sixty second version, which includes a great moment that is just about as Australian as you can get. It would never get on the air in America.
And just for old time’s sake, here again is that tear-jerking Mickey D commercial we loved so much three years ago. I know the it says “Video Unavailable,” but do yourself a favor and click on “Watch on YouTube.” The commercial is cut to the BeeGee’s “To Love Somebody.” The payoff at the end makes me tear up every time I see it.
Laughing…… laughing…… crying!
These are awesome! Too bad we do have the budget to make high dollar commercials here in America. Low budget wins here!
Miss y’all so much!
Creativity wins out over cost every time.
Fantastic!
Of course, loved the dog one best.
You’re just a big softie, Jim. 🥲
Both ads are fantastic, so creative and they hook you.
