Truth is, corporate probably didn't even watch Michael's ad. Think about it. Every other Dunder-Mifflin branch was using the 'wave to the camera' template. If corporate had spent extra money to professionally remake Michael's ad, the other branches would have accused them of favoritism. Of course, even with that in mind, the biggest reason corporate wouldn't watch the ad was that they thought Michael was an idiot.
With professional editing? This would be one of the best ads on TV. A little less racial profiling and "dumbness" (speed of time, having a woman not know she hadn't a son)
@iwanttobelieve2 She'd know if she had a kid though. Instead of "You have a son. And it's me." it would make more sense to have "I'm your son." The whole point is to have it like that though; it's part of the joke.
The reason Dundler Mifflin didn't go with ad I think is probably because of the royalty costs they'd have to pay for using that well-known tune. For a relatively small paper company, the costs would outweigh the benefits.
This really was an awesome commercial. So much better than Corporate's. It's got some lines that don't necessarily make sense (What's the speed of time? How can a woman not know she had a baby? Paper for a paperless world!?!) But it's still amazing. It moves you emotionally, and that's what a good commercial is all about.
Why would or does a person disable embeds? It makes no sense to me and is a total annoyance. Why don't you want more people to see your video? Anyway whatever, I'll find another source for people.
People say it's racial profiling to have Stanley as the convict, but studies conducted by real scientists with microscopes say that all black people are criminals so there. BOOM roasted.
this is better than the original dunder mifflin comercial with the guy looking for everyone and them waving in the end... this 1 is much more creative
I love how Michael always makes fun of Phyllis for looking older than she is and motherly and stereotypes Stanley and Kelly, and yet somehow convinces them to act the part. Ha sometimes I just wanna slap Michael but this is one of his good moments
the best thing about this is how actually good this commercial is. They very easily could have made it something ridiculously bad, and that would have garnered some cheap laughs. But this, as cheesy as it sounds, actually kind of makes you think.
One of the things it makes me think about is the fact that Michael somehow convinced Stanley to stand by the side of the road in an orange jumpsuit picking up trash. That is quite impressive.
first off how come the camera wasn't more centered with the tv so u wouldn't have to see the sides of the tv? with that being said that commercial that they put together was way better than i thought it was going to be. i thought it was going to be all goofy. but it was awesome. lol stanley on a chain gang
i don't know about you u guys...but i thought this was a ligit good ad
