    Byggmakker is like home depot, essentially.
    The blue puppet featuring again and again across many commercials and over a long period of time creates a meme that sticks in people's minds,
    i love the paint color/chainsaw one especially.
    "This one or this one?"
    "VRRRRRRR"
    "Are you sure?"
    "SAW 8]"

    Kims is actually a popular brand for potatochips.
    That 7 minutes long commercial for Kolonial, was basically to "make it quick, jump over the trip to the store". See how he was meant to just have 4 different items, but he ended up with a full shopping cart.
    AND BTW: Watch "respect for grandiosa", those old commercials are such a delight!

    A comment on the long commercial in the shop.
    When people go shopping, we all tend to buy stuff we did not intend to buy because we got tempted. (do not go grocery when hungry)
    The add is for a shop specializing in home delivery of grocery.

    Norway has a lot of commercials where they have a story, going over several parts. After a while you start to associate the characters with the company. So even without placement items or logos, you recognize which brand it is for quite fast. Think the idea is that the story telling with leave people with a more positive impression of the company

    The one with the 1st person view is for an online grocery that delivers to your door. They're basically saying to not go to a physical store on an empty stomach cause you'll end up buying much more than what you initially wrote down on your list (the guy who is shopping says he's only supposed to get 5 items at the start of the video), so use their online grocery instead and get it delivered, and save some money xD

    Actually on linear TV they got complaints many yers ago, that the volume was muted during a show or film, and when comercials came it blasted out. To make sure people heard it when leaving the TV. People with hearingproblems got worse because of that. Like people with hearing aid and tinnitus etc.
    So maybe they changed it to "fun" insted of "very loud". I dont know but it might some of the reason.

      @oxyaction no, the uk Department of Levis wanted that ad for the UK. Nothing to fo with America at all. All branches around the world control our own shit. Coca Cola Denmark does our own ads that has nothing to do with the guys in America. My mate here is part of the ad department of Denmark. So Flat Eric had nothing to do with Levis USA.

      @@ebbhead20 Maybe UK made its own ad. But Flat Eric and co-star Angel (Philippe Petit) cruise around LA in a clapped-out Chevrolet to the sounds of blaring techno music.

      @oxyaction well fair enough but we know it as a UK ad with a French angle. And google tells me the same thing... So give me some of the US ads...
