Microsoft Ad: Shoe Circus – Jerry Seinfeld and Bill Gates

[youtube:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uz6amk3P-hY]
Jerry Seinfeld happens upon Bill Gates in a mall and trades shoe knowledge for insights into the future of technology.

This was a dumb, hacky attempt at trying to be cute and creative as the mac ads. Last I checked, Jerry Seinfeld isn’t that ‘hip’. At least Justin Long was banging Drew Barrymore and has now moved on to Spiderman snaggle-tooth, Kirsten Dunst.

This second ad is much better. Its totaly clear now.
Windows – Not walls.

    Yep. I saw this commercial on YT today, and it is one of the stupidest I’ve ever seen. If I hadn’t known in advance what they were selling, I would have never known. Ug. Awfulness.

    I loved it. Of course, I have an entire blog dedicated to shoe-related humor and trivia.
