It doesn't really do it for me. Looks too fake.

I agree with this. I thought it kinda looked ridiculous before the end, and then Jackson drags 4 Steelers Lineman/LBs into the endzone.

Instead of ending the commercial right before Jackson reaches the goal line, why not have it somehow where Jackson and Merriman are on the same field and cut it right before they are about to run into each other at the goal line? is that a bit to cliche?

That was really good and I had forgotten about that commercial. I still put it slightly below the Leave Nothing though, that commercial was just intense.

Also, the Jordan XXII shoe basketball opera-style commercial with the mozart music was AWESOME. Let me find a link:

edit: the mascot head rolling across the court is definitely the best part.

IMO, this one isn't anywhere near the same league as the others that have been posted.

Why is he slapping that kid's ass 15 seconds in?

This commercial doesn't compare to the others in the directorial or cinematic sense but in the historical sense I think it was pretty significant for putting Gatorade and MJ on the map. I also was pretty young for the MJ advertising blitz so I'm not sure what the order was between Nike, Gatorade and whatever else.

Yeah, it definitely was significant, I'll grant that. I just don't think it is nearly as well crafted as the others. But since we've hijacked the original thread enough already, anything goes!

The two best are the Mozart one and the Let Your Game Speak one. The new football commercial is great too. Common thread is the great music. I think that makes them so transcendent. Makes them seem more like film.

This one was directed by John Woo.

Michael Bay directed the famous "Aaron Burr" Got Milk? commercial.

Did not know this, but I guess that's got to be considered his finest work, now, no?

My favorite Jordan Commercial still has to be the Jordan Vs. Bird Mcdonalds commercials
