the reason the monkey is invisible is because the commercial first had a real monkey, but then PETA complained that it was against the monkey's rights or whatever, so Dodge kinda shot back at them with this. it's kind of like "I'm not going to change my commercial cuz you don't like seeing monkey's in suits"
michael c hall, you have the best narrator's voice. i actually enjoy watching these car commercials just because you narrate it. whoever hired him is a GENIUS.
Animal abuse sucks, and I don't know what animals go thru in the show business, but come on. There is a better way to handle it. Throwing rocks like a bunch of knuckle draggers at the accused just makes PETA look dumb.
You know your organization is doing something wrong when people would rather see you get your ass handed to you than actually care about the living condition of performing animals.
Peta is so stupid that they are smart. How many more commercials will have monkeys after this now? I think PETA likes it when people think they are retarded.
@naruto0pwnz Because it gives them more attention than PETA going after some small company that actually is abusing animals, and not getting as much news coverage. It's more about them than the chimp. That said: I WANT A CHALLENGER!
@bputra13 P.E.T.A. People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals.
Look, I'm against mistreating animals as well as most people, but has PETA proven this "Monkey" (actually it's a Chimpanzee) has been mistreated? This is why I don't support them. I'm pretty sure there are much worse instances of animal abuse than this. They are hurting their own cause by making a dig deal about this chimp.
What happens when you get complaints for making a commerical with a monkey? Be a smart ass and make it invisable. Way to go Dodge you sure know how to work around complaints. xD
@conradragzoff it's because of the monkey entertainment business. Apparently, chimps are taken from their mothers at a young age and put in terrible conditions.
(but I agree with everyone that it's not that big of a deal... as long as you get a monkey that lives in healthy conditions)
@danjigirl88 Well, I just heard from PITA (Pain In The Ass) that invisible monkeys are kept in even MORE horrible working conditions than visible ones... so I protest this new commercial!!!
I'm I the only that knows the difference between an invisible monkey and invisible chimpanzee? It's clear that this is an invisible chimpanzee and not a invisible monkey.
actually after viewing this video...i agree with PETA...if you look closely...the invisible monkey suffered an invisible callus on his tiny little hand...during this very dangerous stunt...
@rsanchez112789 because PITA tried to sue dodge because they say chimps in show business die early than others. so ass a fuck u dodge made the chimp invisible!!
While Peta do suck. They weren't the only ones who complained about the chimp being featured, many organisations like chimp sanctuaries complained, but for a good reason. They didn't complain because they're over sensitive, but because of the experience they have of ex-entertainment chimps, who often after spending their childhood years in an alien environment often have psychological problems and many are just sent to research facilitieswhen they're too big to handle.
no they did not have to do anything. thank god peta does not actually have that kind of power. however the creative power of people is being styfled by an org that kills way more animals than they save.
PETA sucks.There is a shit load of other organisation who ACTUALLY want to protect animals.They tried to deshumanise autistic and make us pass as intoxicated in order to achieve their goals once!
Forget the stupid animal controversy...this commercial is senseless, dull and just STOOPID"...Who's hiring these guys? Holla at me for God Sake! I have some serious ideas....I wont share unless i you come see me...I mean buddy's voice was scripted to sound dull, the vehicles are black, the confetti is way overboard and the friggin monkey is invisible....Am i the only one who doesn't feel this garbagio?
@canadasouth that was part of the joke, his so mono toned it's actually funny and don't call people stupid if you spell it STOOPID, it was a good commercial and made news headlines, it got more attention that it was intended to have so I would presume that it did it's purpose to advertise the product. Here's the thing you clearly don't understand whatever works to sell/advertise is good, even if the tune/colour or w.e is bad if everyone has seen it it did is job and is good.
Oh no! You've dodged the PETA but here comes even more trouble! The PETMCH! Do you know the kind of attrocoties young Michael C Halls' are put through? It's attrocious!
@goodorigin Sorry im just real happy for peta. I know that there trying to piss peta off by making the monkey invisible(fail) but at least they didnt force a monkey into this commercial
@vertigo639 Well whos to know that the monkey is actually taken good care of?
PETA just wants more attention! But I like what PETA does and its goals, but focus on important stuff, its obvious the monkey wasnt harmed filming the commercial. There are way worse things they should be complaining about, not this... Get what Im saying?
invisible monkey, OK. PETA! thank you for the Invisible monkey, its priceless. but, I've got to say "What the Hell" was PETA, thinking about, when they complained about this.

@Klif I also am not a fan of PETA and their extremism, but I have to say that in this case, their prompting to have Dodge remove the chimp from the commercial is laudable. I say this as a researcher of animal behavior who has worked with chimps in the past. Unfortunately, given their cognitive/social needs, there is really no way to use chimps in entertainment humanely. Please don't let PETA's association with a good cause taint your view of the real situation.
I'm tired of this "defending animals rights" people... Million of people starving around the world and they're wasting money and time defending monkeys or bulls...
@elpeishe: If you are truly concerned about world hunger, the most effective action any person can take to help is to adopt a vegetarian diet. Meat production is incredibly wasteful in terms of land, energy, grain, water and other resources. One acre of land can support one meat eater or 20 vegetarians.
Thank you so much Dodge, for making the compassionate and intelligent choice. I've been driving Dodge for years and will now *proudly* continue to do so!
@alliteration1247: agreed, the harm had already been done in this case. The significant element is that Dodge agreed to never use great apes in their commercials in the future.
People think that Dodge have in to peta? Ridiculous! They used the same dumb animals "performance" and took his face out of it thus denying the monkey his few seconds of fame! They STILL used the animal and then they cut him out! Ultimate FU to the DUMBASSES that only eat leaves, seaweed, and cowshit. Screw peta, Dodge did!
Those of you supporting PETA should Youtube Pen and Teller's expose' on PETA. Dodge screwed up on this one. For one thing, many if not most Americans have long caught on to PETA's crap. Only stupid people (celebs?) still think it's noble to support PETA. With Dodge in bed with PETA, GM standing for Government Motors, Ford is about the only car company left I can buy from with a clean conscience.
Thanks Dodge for making the awesome and ethical choice of refusing to use monkeys or apes in your commercials. PETA is a great organization. All of you who think it's funny that non-human animals suffer for your food, clothes, and entertainment are poor examples of the human race. The humans I believe in are compassionate and don't take advantage of those who are weaker. Your stupid jokes are sad and pathetic. Some people care about more than their bellies and you can't stand it.
Screw PETA! I'm glad Dodge turned it around on them.

Please don't let PETA's association with a good cause taint your view of the real situation.

I'm tired of this "defending animals rights" people... Million of people starving around the world and they're wasting money and time defending monkeys or bulls...

@elpeishe: If you are truly concerned about world hunger, the most effective action any person can take to help is to adopt a vegetarian diet. Meat production is incredibly wasteful in terms of land, energy, grain, water and other resources. One acre of land can support one meat eater or 20 vegetarians.

Rofl. I don't even give a crap about PETA, but seriously? This is hilarious crap. Love it.

Why make the monkey invisible? It's not like it changes the fact that the monkey walked out and did the trick.

Thank you so much Dodge, for making the compassionate and intelligent choice. I've been driving Dodge for years and will now *proudly* continue to do so!

@XdariusXNJ LOL at the end of the day there was still a fucking monkey used.

@alliteration1247: agreed, the harm had already been done in this case. The significant element is that Dodge agreed to never use great apes in their commercials in the future.

People think that Dodge have in to peta? Ridiculous! They used the same dumb animals "performance" and took his face out of it thus denying the monkey his few seconds of fame! They STILL used the animal and then they cut him out! Ultimate FU to the DUMBASSES that only eat leaves, seaweed, and cowshit. Screw peta, Dodge did!

Those of you supporting PETA should Youtube Pen and Teller's expose' on PETA. Dodge screwed up on this one. For one thing, many if not most Americans have long caught on to PETA's crap. Only stupid people (celebs?) still think it's noble to support PETA. With Dodge in bed with PETA, GM standing for Government Motors, Ford is about the only car company left I can buy from with a clean conscience.

Thanks Dodge for making the awesome and ethical choice of refusing to use monkeys or apes in your commercials. PETA is a great organization. All of you who think it's funny that non-human animals suffer for your food, clothes, and entertainment are poor examples of the human race. The humans I believe in are compassionate and don't take advantage of those who are weaker. Your stupid jokes are sad and pathetic. Some people care about more than their bellies and you can't stand it.
