The first ad is by a sealant specialist company and obviously they want to sell their services. Sony's ad were made for thier game-console, Play Station 2 and the third ad is made by Puma who sells cloths. I'd say the first ad is targeted for male craftsmen. The other two ads might be more fitting for younger people, 14-20 year olds.
The Playstation 2 ad is the one who I thinkhas the most subiminal message, the other two are too obvious or just confusing.
The first advertisement, in my opinion, is kinda funny but I have no idea about the company or the quality of their work so I can't really agree with their message. The playstation 2 ad, if you ask me, is a bit exaggerated and the Puma ad doesn't make any sense at all. All three ads are focused on physical/emotional sex but I don't find them negative portrayed, not particularly posetive either.
