For what I understood I think is hasn't gone to TV. Anyway, I think this is a little smart though perverse way of get it going that brands use nowadays when they know they'd face problems on TV. Ford has made it with the series of ad's from "Ka's Evil Twin". Organizations that work for the animal rights have made a fuss about it, but Ford marketing dep. stated they didn't wanted the ad to be passed and that it was someone else's fault. They got away with it.
yea fair enough but thats animal rights lol kind of different to human type
just relating to the far east and all the problems they are having with suiside bombers at the moment, i really doubt it will get shown

Fantastic, it's obviously not going to be shown but a marketing genius over at VW prob. did this similarly to the Ford Ka add, knowing it'll spread. :)

Its funny, but I think if they show it during hours when there are younger viewers, they will find it funny, we find it funny but you know there are always conservatives running about.

I think we're going to see more and more of these.
The internet is allowing the advertisers to really appeal to groups without having the moral minority dragging them through courts !!
Like the BMW ads with the cars racing through city streets. Advertising standards specifically prevent them from airing on TV and in cineams, so BMW did the logical thing.
I love it. Lets me see the expression of great ideas in the freedom of my home :)

Yes, but they're over 700Mb total.
Too good a quality and too long to cut up into UCP-sized chunks :(
Can't remember the site, it was an official BMW one.
If you can't find it, then I can send them via messegner if you want.

THansk Johnny, that's the site.
They really are great films and the "making of" is really interesting and explains how come it looks like an actor is driving so good :)
