Ok, I’m a bit late to this, but I’m completely at a loss to understand the drama quenn reaction to these ads.

Dreadful?

Vile?

Creepy?

It just seems like a piss poor attempt at trying to come up with a “deep” critique, and instead sounding like a pretentious amateur. The responses that echo this sentiment are just parroting morons.

Did you even proofread your post and then ask yourself “does this seem a bit over the top?”.

Seriously, if you want to critique advertisments, and not sound like a idiot, go to Advertising Age on the web and read how professionals do it.

i laughed to your reaction to the ad. it shows that you are totally out of touch on what ads people are exposed every day. in this case against the laptop hunters and the rookies ads come down to the actual agencies behind them. this Ad has tattooed JWT style in it in the same way the others have C.P + B style in them.

i would not think much of this ads since it is just the opening ad for a campaign that is meant to have around 30 video ads in the next 1000 days. this ad in particular is meant to be just the way it is and choosing JWT was a safe choice that i think was the right one in this particular case when you need to attack conventions and concepts instead of other brands and competitors that is the why you hire C.P. + B
