I see this commercial for Bizarre Guitar and Guns (first 40 seconds) several times a week. It's got to be the most, er, innovative store in Nevada.

Channel 4 in the United Kingdom has fastidiously replicated the soundstage of Stanley Kubrick's The Shining -- with recreated sets, props, and lookalike actors -- for a 65-second commercial about upcoming broadcasts of the director's films. Even the bear/dog/walrus costume makes an appearance. (thx, jmd)

Videos of a new batch of commercials for AT&T, directed by Wes Anderson. "step away from the camera dolly, wes," says one of the commenters, but hey, a person's style is a person's style. (via kottke)

Digital effects demo reels for commercials of the early 1980's, from the same people who did some of the CG for Tron. Wow, excellent jingle work as well. This is exactly my kind of thing. (also via waxy)

Two of documentarian Errol Morris's Quaker commercials filmed in an actual Ames Room (the two at the bottom). An Ames Room is an optical illusion constructed so that objects near the front are perceived as gigantic and those near the back as miniature. Hey, Ricky Jay seems to like 'em.

250,000 bouncy balls thrown down a San Francisco street for a Sony LCD commercial. Watch the commercial -- they're not computer generated! (via agblog)
