You’ll NEVER get amazing thought provoking artistic ads like this again. These were brilliant for a simpler time.

We all know why we're here. These were many of our childhoods. As a kid it was always a pleasure to see Rutger on screen, especially in these ads.

RIP you pure genius.

Heard about Rutger's passing and immediately thought of these adverts from the 80's and 90's. I remembered them so well as a kid because I loved adverts and sci-fi things!

I LOVED these adverts,they where so Clever and Gothic ,when they came on I was transported to another world very arty and thought provoking for the time,RIP Rutger Hauer x

I'm absolutely crushed he's gone. Rutgar Hauer you were brilliant. He ad libbed the "tears in rain" line. Probably one of the greatest lines in cinema history.

The one featuring 'We Have All the Time in the World' sung by Louis Armstrong is simply gorgeous. Works a treat.

These ads were the first things I ever saw him in. I was a kid when they originally aired and I always thought they were weird... in retrospect, well, yes, they are weird... but they're also funny and awesome! You never see adverts with this much thought or artistry put into them, today. R.I.P Mr Hauer.

RiP Mr Hauer. You won't be forgotten like tears in rain.

These were beautifully crafted adverts and a big change in direction for advertising at the time. Never matched in my opinion. Rutger certainly made them happen.

a captivating actor, these adverts were classic

To all his many many fans Rutger Hauer will never be an "under rated actor", ( a statment i keep hearing, sheer nonsence ) His moments will never be lost in time for us. RIP to a screen legend and pure genius.

I met Mr Hauer at the same 2016 con (it was the Sunday for me). Weird that it's almost 3 years ago exactly, especially with 2019 being this weekend. Did you see his talk? I don't remember details, but remember it was a lot funnier than I expected - he had a VERY dry sense of humour. I also remember he was extremely unhappy with the upcoming Blade Runner 2049 which he felt could never get close to the original and shouldn't have been made. You could see just how much pride he had in the original, justifiably. Rest in Peace Mr Hauer, you were a class act! 👏

Only a great actor could make these so good. I'm sorry Hauer's gone but so glad for what he had and gave.

Goodbye.. And thank you Mr Hauer. Hope you enjoy your new life wherever you are. X

Rest in peace beautiful man...

Gorgeous man, these adverts drove me crazy RIP RH x

Back when adverts had a real reason for the sell. And these had real artistic flair and a real genius to single out Rutger Hauer as the face. We've lost another cool one. R.I.P. Mr. Hauer.

These ads are pure genius!

I've drunk things you people wouldn't believe!

RIP Rutger. Thanks for the memories.

These adverts are a stroke of genius, but casting Rutger is beyond that. The one with Rutger on the tv is fucking awesome thinking.

Wouldn't it be amazing if they put these ads back on British telly to honour the memory of Rutger!? He was magic in these ads!...I wish you'd lived to 803, Rutger!!

RIP Rutger Hauer. Thank you for all your wonderful movies.

Rutger Hauer was Pure Genius. He will be missed. (Thank you for posting this video of very unique ads) !

Also, it has to be mentioned that "All the Time in the World" by Louis Armstrong didn't become a hit, until it was featured in the later Guinness ads (25 years after it's original release!). I don't even think many people were aware that it was a "Bond theme" at the time, because On Her Majesty's Secret Service used to be one of the least talked about films in the series.

God bless Rutger Hauer!

RIP Rutger Hauer :(

R I P Rutger Hauer

You were the great Roy Batty, the noble Navarre, Rutger we will never forget you

A sad loss, keenly felt.

Apparently Rutger publicly took a dislike for the Guinness and had to spit it out after each take. Fascinating actor though.

God bless to whoever uploaded these x the louis Armstrong Guinness ad i remember vividly x

I just absolutely loved Rutger Hauer. As a teenager I watched his films repeatedly. He had such an extraordinary magnetism and was the very epitome of charisma. The camera just loved him, and when on screen nobody else in the scene was even noticeable such was the gravity of the man.

IF YOU KEEP AN OPEN MIND, YOU’LL DISCOVER A DARK SECRET. R.I.P. RUTGER HAUER THE GREATEST ADVERTS GUINNESS EVER DID. YOU WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN

Wow. I grew up with these ads and had no idea there were quite so many of them.

Pity in one way, he never stayed on Mars. He could have lived to 803. Their loss... RIP Rutger Hauer

who needs bloody surfers when you got this bloke

RIP Rutger …. *Peace Be With You*

Oh it's him from the Guinness adverts ...... Thats what i would say when i see him in films back when i was a kid :)

RIP Rutger.

Pure class! Why are adverts so lame now, none of the modern adverts will be remembered in years to come.

These adverts really hit a nerve when I was a kid. So cool and abstract. Guiness seemed liked the coolest drink ever.

Rutger. One cool sexy mature man. He is gorgeous in the zebra crossing one.

I never knew these ads existed. A Dutchman promoting an Irish beer. I see _PURE GENIUS_

I was totally in lust with Rutger but didn't realise how many Guiness ads he had done. Thank you for a big treat 😉

All those moments....will be lost in time....like Guinness spilled at the bar

my god the lovely mr hauer xxxxx

RIP

Thanks for uploading, just read about the ads on Rutger's wiki so now the first time I see them 🙂

Just finding these in the weeks after his death; my appreciation deepened by the fact that he hated the shit and spit it out after every take. Bravo, Mr. Hauer, you had exquisite taste.

You now have all the time in the world, dear Rutger. I’ll raise a glass to you also having all the love in the world. Godspeed to you, dear friend...

A class act, all the way.

RIP to the god, Rutger Hauer.

rutger hauer RIP

A very good actor. Goodbye Rutger

Great to view all of these ads, some of which I;d actually never seen and some which I'd forgotten about over the years. Far too subtle for today's audience I think, but absolute masterpieces for me............ How could advertising have gradually become so bad over the years.

Rutger hauer god rest his soul.

I remember this one at 7:33. Classic. I'm actually 40 years younger than Rutger Hauer (Born July 23rd 1984).

RIP Rutger

Rip Mr Hauer

The telepathy one had two versions. They played the first, silent, one the most and where you hear the missing teddy bear message, very rarely. My friends thought I was crazy as I told them what he was thinking. Brilliant.

I'm sat here having a cool dark drink, reminiscing. Thank you for taking the time and effort to collect and post these. I was a child when they were first shown, and honestly the Aussie larger, the one Australians couldn't give a XXXX for anything else are still the best, however these are as the tagline so aptly put it are pure genius.

RIP Rutger. Legend.

This guy could be reading random text and it would still sound artistic and deep. My all time favorite actor :3

These adverts really hit a nerve when I was a kid. So cool and abstract. Guiness seemed liked the coolest drink ever. Oh to be older and be allowed to drink alcohol. I moidered my Mam until I was allowed to try some. Anyway at 10 or 11 at my Aunties Annes house I was given a glass and my young palette didn't appreciate it too much. It was horrible. These adverts are iconic. The idea of Rutger Hauer dressed all in black with his fair hair representing a glass of guiness was genius. Perhaps that was the pure genius referred to in the adverts.

lol I didn't know he did ads for Guinness. RIP my friend.

Proves that all aliens are not little green men or a threat to the planet Such a brilliant actor.will be remembered for many classic films R.I.P.

I have just been to the Guinness Storehouse in Dublin and none of these ads were featured.....I was so confused

Pure Legend. Vale

The thundering lightning sound effect!

Perfect!!💎

So much Carisma and presence.

3:14 « It’s just a nightmare. » 😂

2:12 favorite commercial. I still remember it from that time.

Amazing, RIP Rutger and I hope you found Horace ❤

R.I.P Rutger Hauer

Rutger Hauer:: As its written in the Guinness Adverts.. You are " Pure Genius.."

I'm 34 and remember them well. Thing is some of them would really scare the crap out of me!

Favorite actor with the favorite beer...❤

I remember these show how old I am

Rutger was one cool cat

RIP Rutger Hauer.

He’s not lying

I really miss that man.

Some of these used to freak me out as a kid.

The one with the Powermad song from Wild at Heart is cool

RIP Rutger Hauer. I have A Guinness for you.

RIP Rutger Hauer

Love the melody at 0:34 😊

I wonder what Rutger Hauer would have thought of the surger

All these pints will be lost in time

Didn't Ridley Scott direct a couple of these ads?

He was cast as he was tall and blonde and- if dressed in black- looked like a pint of Guinness!

Adieu Rutger.

I love the MOBY DICK one!! Pure genius indeed.

Clock stops 9:23. 23rd September. There's a riddle for you there...

6:52. 42. Of course.

7:19. What the heck? I don't remember these ads in the US.

Talk amongst yourselves, I may be some time.
