AT&T Rethink Possible Birthday extended version

[Monzonaut]

arussian77 Pure Imagination, its in the movie Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory.

[722redtree]

these are the same people who contributed the max to bush/cheney, twice?

[mrbsball825]

Favorite commercial of all time

[johnandemilio]

willie wonka!!!!

[aritheory]

If only their service was as good as this advert.

[Erisvids]

I love this video the best

[bmkwatch22]

there are good at commercials only, but good look with their customer service. I hate you ATT.

[MasterMindEnt830]

can you imagine such a world

[mrwright64]

16 people hated there 5th birthday

[ncdaking123]

@mrwright64 No Offense, but shut up. Instead of having a guy say 50 dislikes are 50 Justin Bieber acc, i wanna see people reviewing this video. Or even complaining about the new hompage. Maybe about Vevo , just please, your ruining the moment.

After 40 years, Gene Wilder's voice is still golden. My eyes are no longer dry after watching this.

[supermax110]

When that gigantic person flipped that cloud around, at 0:35

THOSE TOWERS LOOK SO MUCH LIKE THE TWIN TOWERS. XD

[Beeswaxs956]

what is the name of the sone and by who.

[franz0woyzeck]

@Beeswaxs956 "Pure imagination" it is sung by the actor Gene Wilder in the 1971 musical film "Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. It's based on the 1964 novel "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory by Roal Dahl.

[kittymeanakekemax]

I love this commercial and the Willie Wonker song ,,, It brings tears to my eyes because it reminds me of when my daughter was five and she (dressed in a rented cap & gown) accompanied me during my graduation from undergrad --- the pics are priceless. Wow,,, that was 18 years ago. Thanks to whomever made this commercial,,, awesome job!!!

[shayaan2354]

Think whatever you Wang about At&t, this commercial was just great. :D

[iFluffyKitteh]

aw my fav commercial ever!! my first time seeing it i wanted to be a little kid again..and i used to watch this movie about 40 times a day when i was 5 lolz

[CipotaxLoca]

xD wen i first saw this commercial i thought they only played this song was cuz the guy at the end was the actor who played charlie lmfao (BUT HE IS NOT) haha

[SunnyLovetts]

very interesting.. to bad i hate corporate pigs.

[saachica07]

no lie, my parents yell for me whenever this comes on. i LOVE the purple thing, and they make sure i don't miss it :D

[ikpure]

figr was inspired by this.. figr is gone now D:

[Berserkscarlett]

This commercial gives me that heart warming feeling... and I'm only 18. It makes you appreciate live more

[cgsilverscreen2020]

I'm scared of this commercial? The robot is the only reason.

[skatindayanite]

Genius pure genius

[demolitionXloveX94]

At&t is no longer my service provider... But this commercial still warms my heart to this day.

[jasonfu6699]

@OHEYITSKAYLA NO. THIS SONG IS BETTER THAN ANY CHRISTMAS SONG EVER WRITTEN.

[simsalfred7]

To be honest this is my favorite AT&T Commercial because showing all that extra stuff with iPhones is over doing it. A wireless carrier should always brag about there service not there phones. im with att but they slacking off. I hope they go big with this 4G LTE thing

[simsalfred7]

@simsalfred7 Phones come second

[tik999]

Way better than all those iPod, iPhone, iPad, commercial with those putrid awful indie songs. Are they selling me technology or a fucking fashion accessory?

This AT&T commercial is how you fucking do it.

[kismetaneous]

Because of my older sister's childhood love for Willy Wonka...the movie and this song have now become special to my heart. When I saw this commercial...it almost made me cry...love it.

[MTVGUY4]

Thumps up if you thought this commercial made you feel cozy inside and also want to be 5 again

[crladvl]

I want to be 5 again!

[Jose031398]

(sigh) good times!

[cheshirecatsaira]

i hated being 5 but this really makes me miss being younger :L

[cyborgkar]

this almost made me shed a tear!

[cheshirecatsaira]

@cyborgkar aww same here <3

[Jeepgirlcj7]

I think this commercial is brilliant and it captures a place and time in everyone's childhood; doesn't really matter how old you are either. It makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside. ^.^

[lucielkat]

awesome quality, and love the song and the video

[coolfilmer272]

thumps up if you realize their service is complete shit.

[lingerseason]

im so glad im not alone on being sad while seeing this commercial lol...everytime i think back of my childhood i get really sad because now in college...i miss the times just sitting there with my mom and sister just drawing for hours and i miss not having to worry about anything and just having fun. i reeeeeally wish i could go back in time to my 5th birthday again..

[JuggaloKaez216]

@lingerseason Me too, buddy, me too.

[Deuceism]

this has to be one of the most elaborate commercials I have ever seen in my entire life.

[lilmonster241]

I love this comercial!!(:

[NicklausTheGreat]

awesome visual effects, perfectly done in every single shot!

[HamonLord]

This commerical made me cry in both happiness and sadness. ;D

[BradiKal61]

Brought to you by AT&T, the Slugworth of telecommunication! Every time I see my friends use their I Phones they curse AT&T

We had Pure Imagination played at our wedding. Gene Wilder- you rule, and always will.

[GreenElixir]

Is that Dean Chekvala?

[TheSasukelover414]

happy fifth birthday, dad!

[Lpn]

i felt like seeing this again purely for the song---1st time i saw it on tv i wanted to cry--brought back memories of those wonka days lol

good times...good times ^_^

[teraterakhan]

Pure imagination by gene wilder from Charlie and the chocolate factory

[shane87smith]

@teraterakhan WILLY WONKA and the chocolate factory actually :P

[shane87smith]

@teraterakhan no worries :)

[BLOODYBOY569]

whats the name of this song!!

[bryanpb983]

0:55 He looks like he is high

I wish I could get high off a cell phone...

[enragedcrow]

thumbs up if you are no longer five, but still live in a world capable of pure imagination

[JuggaloKaez216]

@enragedcrow I'm an abstract artist, so i'm pretty much very obligated do some weed every once in a blue blue moon to stay in my world of pure imagination.

[BArcherC]

I dare any add agency to do a better job on a commercial. This strikes at the 'baseband' of the soul (for anyone who understands the reference to Charlie & The Chocolate Factory ... almost everyone I can think of). Bravo.

[SergeantFluffy1]

@SuperJasmin1995 its called Pure imagination. it was on the original Willy Wonka

[SuperJasmin1995]

wats the name of this song!!!

[sbkite]

So much more effective than " oh damn our competitor sucks come to us" that verizon is still doing

[sydneyiskara]

Alexi Wasser?

[MJ4evas]

I freaking love this commercial but I have no Idea why O.o lol

[impulsewithMiggyVee]

i love cliftons...especially the forest theme inside lol...

[unrooolie]

I love this commercial. cause i always take my girls downtown we eat a the 80 years olds Clifton's cafeteria then walk down to the central library.

[strangelinag]

i love at&t comercials !

too bad I don't have at&t , i have verizon haha .

[partlymedia]

Here's to our new world of imagination. Much love to you, Anngail. DM

[CipotaxLoca]

lol when i first saw this commercial i was like wait are they playing this song cuz that beard guy at the end played charlie in the original movie but then i was like oh wait its for the phone xDDDD

[blondaza]

@CipotaxLoca hahahhaa that was very funny I can see that the guy could be Charlie hu!

[rocker78able]

at&t wasted a lot of paper making this commercial. This might make iJustine with her iPhone bill mad...

[rocker78able]

TOAST!!!

[laker1516]

this commercial is made for lsd25.

[THETHINICE32]

What's the song?

[AshleyDuritz32]

@THETHINICE32 pure imagination. it's the willy wonka soundtrack with gene wilders.

[fool232323]

Don't ever lose that child fantasy sense, their one of the greatest

[LouisTheAsian]

lol at octopus running from bus

[ShyRobot]

Does this mean AT&T is made of chocolate? Can I eat?

[MJSDIRTYDIANA100]

my fav commercial.!

[TheReturnofLurker15]

wily wonka music

[losangelesrep]

Don Draper would be proud.

[Zerosen2]

Yep I see the twin towers there at 0:36 too. A bit creepy

[azrael407]

@Zerosen2 its not the twin towers-these towers are connected, the twin towers werent

[DarienVista]

@Zerosen2

Thats not the Twin Towers cause this commercial was shot in California.

[BULLITE44]

@Zerosen2 the twin towers are 2 buldings. at 0:36 its only one bulding it just kind of looks like two

[nadine12894]

i really love this commercial..evet sice this commercial everyone is trying to use old songs....but they cant beat this!!

[Luckthedon7]

@nadine12894 yo i know, this can't be topped, simply beautiful. oh my goodness, yo son i almost cried on this commercial lol it reminded me of childhood and the old willy wonka lol.

[fowskate]

@nadine12894 what other commercials are?

[simsalfred7]

@nadine12894 how could 16 people hate this commercial its beautiful. Happy 5th birthday again

[XxLegendman1995xX]

Brings back memories when I was 5.

[devilcry4541]

This should have been an HTC EVO commercial, its what I hear every time I look at mine.

[Davidgtatips]

At the end I saw a iPad

[VAB4lyfe]

everytime this commercial pops on tv me and my lil brother just stops and looks at it and blocks out everything going on around us til its done :) I love it

[IheartToxicWaste]

looks an awful lot like the twin towers at 0:36. o__O

[PurdueGrad29]

I didn't see this ad till someone who knows how much I love Gene Wilder mentioned that she thought of me after seeing it :) I had the chance to meet the great man himself last year, here in Atlanta, and it was one of the defining moments of my life. Two of my most distinct childhood memories are watching "Willy Wonka" and "The Smarter Brother of Sherlock Holmes" with my Dad.

[SASJKL]

at&t makes great commercials

[apotherix]

I wish I felt like this when I looked at my cell phone.

[Uhhxhi]

Ugh... I love this. I honestly tear up.

I know it's not meant to make you tear up or whatever, but it honestly hits home. I love this.

[AlloraWillRyanFan]

@Uhhxhi i agree

[IheartToxicWaste]

@Uhhxhi i second that.

[koryk831]

My one year old daughter loves this!!!

[XxDJCyberLoverxX]

@b0ses: I just downloaded mine on iTunes. I'll gladly pay $1 for a song like this

[XxDJCyberLoverxX]

I love the song used in this commercial, and I agree with others that this really brings us back to the innocent childhood; kind of like the real old Disneyland days.

[stewart3245]

I love the rainbow in this commercial

[crystala1]

my 1 year old son loves this commercial so much I have it saved to my dvr.

[b0ses]

HOW IN THE WORLD CAN I FIND A HIGH QUALITY VERSION OF THIS SONG!?!?!

[magnificent56]

@b0ses go to watch?v=lX4tOsQnZTQ also the song is on iTunes :D

[tomamami48]

when i see this commercial all i see is a 40 year old guy who looks like a hobo pedophile high off shrooms thats why all those things are popping up haha

[jferra87]

Best Att commercial i've seen in a long time.

[virgil13stealthman]

name of the song pls



[ExoticDreams]

@virgil13stealthman Pure Imagination sung by Gene Wilder :)

[evanslawn12345]

everytime i see this commercial, it makes me want to be 5 years old again.

[ramkidd123]

wow a 40 year old song (1971)still makes us feel happy. theres a phone involved??????????

[mrskeegin]

My father used to rock me to sleep when I was little and always sang this song. So beautiful and just makes me happy!

[awesomeirlable]

this commercial is beauty in its purest form..... it brought me back to a time when i wasn't hurting

[JokerJoker210210]

Remember when you were five and you got raped by your dad............dont talk to your dad ever again.

[ultimatekai]

DUDE IS THAT THE GUY FROM THE RED ROBIN COMMERCIAL?

[chicaratamura]

i love how the three eyed creature blinks each eye in turn!

[jewceyfrewt08]

I really love this commercial... but I don't see how you could compare being five years old again to having a small piece of technology that means nothing in the long run. Just my opinion...

[The1CamBo]

This commercial is such a waste of this song.

[Jael4eva]

Is it weird that this commercial makes my eyes water? I love this commercial. I definately agree with driftking18vt it makes all the bad things in the world go away for just a minute and it really brings you back, and not only is it trying to promote AT&T but it really is just saying to enjoy life and live like theres no tomorrrow...at least thats what i get out of this commercial.

[NemeanLion]

Magical.

[Shinobili19]

@partlymedia

queer

[BMFProductions]

FIGRs Montage copied this

[TheJumbleNuts]

@BMFProductions i think figr's looked better :P

[xlovelyx3321]

[brycecampbel]

Wish we had telecommunication ads like this in Canada.

[ladyb692]

[newtownboigreg]

[MortimerKahn]

[Toadsanime]

There absolutely needs to be a movie made in this style.

Fantastic advert.

[trinigully]

[Prettykendra10]

[UzamakiNaruto21]

[GoldiGlockz]

You don't often see commercials as good as this one that make you think, "Wow, that damn good commercial." It's art! It actually evokes emotion lol.

[onemooregenius98]

[MUJAHID56787]

FIGR !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[victoradame12]

[gretchenpc]

I love that purple googly-eyed monster so much I can hardly stand it. 

[Shaymin770]

I love Pure Imagination! Willy Wonka is one of my favorite movies! :)

[ThePeewee709]

[dnbjunkie0420]

I think I was a bit stoney and cried a little it when I saw this...

[bdaggett3931]

Best commercial EVER



[kore464]

Looks like a fart floating out of the window at the beginning.

[ScottyRanking]

AT&T might suck as a corporation, but this ad is an instant classic.

[tookiefbaby]

i must listen to this at least 10 times every day, best commercial in along time

[brebaby2314]

i really do love this commercial - its my favorite one on air :) the song goes so well with the pictures.. its so cute and innocent, and makes you think of when you were little. great commercial :)

[shadowtriber666]

i wish i 5 again dad miss you

[NemeanLion]

@shadowtriber666 That was probably the nicest comment i've read on this site in a long time.

[shadowtriber666]

@NemeanLion I know

[justinmil1]

This commericial is very dumb. Everytime I hear it on TV I can't mute the TV fast enough.

[onemooregenius98]

@justinmil1 you have no imagination and no soul you must have been an unhappy child

[kmgentil]

@justinmil1 i didnt know this commercial played on playgirl!!

[jacksullivanlord]

i think the great thing about this u can be 8 or 80 and it will still make you feel happy its just something anybody of any age can relate to

[jStatusDesign]

figR got this down so so well

[NemeanLion]

The world is truly what you make of it.

[gretchenpc]

What 13 heartless forms of life gave this thumbs down???

[blueflameMr1]

@martinbriley AT&T has recently changed to tier data plans, that's what I was reffering to. They don't like us using our phones on their network to it's fullest potential.

[itachi91422]

Happy 5th Birthday........... Rethink Possible

[blueflameMr1]

AT&T Rethink Possible*

*But don't do it to often or we'll charge a kings ransom.

[MamajatKC]

This commercial makes me so happy. The young man at the end looks just like my son. And yes, I DO remember his fifth birthday.

[razorman777]

nice and cute commercial. it manages to rekindle my childlike wonder for the world... if only for a minute and 2 seconds... :3

[Bendyournoodle]

12 people must've missed the like button. :P

[twanhoward]

THIS IS ONE AWESOME COMMERCIAL!!!!! I THINK I LIKE THE SHORT VERSION A LITTLE BETTER THOUGH

[ducky999d]

my daughter loves this commercial

Even though it is ATT behind it, I LOVE the children's drawings and the music, plus the whole theme. There are very few commercials that I can stand, but this one I really enjoy.
