does anyone really object to the new sony Bravia advert with the paint explosions?

Question

apparently there were complaints that it was like 9/11....
craziness.

i think the song in the 1st was by sigur ros...
i think the new advert's awesome. it was done in Glasgow, on an estate they're about to pull down, which is a shame cos it would have been brilliant to live in it afterwards!

Answer 1

I LOVE the new advert!

It's brilliant - colourful, exciting, good music (unlike 9/11 which was predominantly grey, upsetting and soundtracked with tears and screams).

With regards to the older advert (with the rubber balls): the song used is actually a cover of a Swedish band, "The Knife". I actually prefer it to the one in the ad: it's more 80s electro and upbeat and arty.

Answer 2

Firstly... how is a load of paint like 9/11?

Secondly, it is a brilliant advert. I love it when they actually do these thigns. There should be more stuff like this and less crap that is all done on computers.

Answer 3

I object because its not as good as the one with all the balls going down the hill and the really lush song! didnt get any similarity to 9/11 tho.

Answer 4

i work at an electrical retailers in norfolk and we've seen the making of the advert. it was filmed in glasgow and was not superimpossed like most people think. they really did use paint bombs!

Answer 5

i just wish, whoever set it up would go to a certain borough of scunthorpe, where i have to work, n do the same job on it, its a dreary depressing "tip"
could do with brightening up!!

Answer 6

I do not...but to each his/her own.

Answer 7

no i love it
