I remember that ad and thinking it was pretty cool to advertise a premium rate text service in such a way. Better than the cheap and tacky ad
involving several models pointing and laughing as if having conversations, bright pink letters and a voiceiver saying "CALL NOOOOOOW!!"
Whoever made that youtube video about the ad has way too much time on their hands though and probably need to get out more.
It's as I said in another post, people are paid to create memorable and creative ads that get people to think about the product and consider using
it. A lot of people I knew over the years all agreed that "it isn't really Christmas until the Coca Cola ad with the trucks is on tv" for that
reason because it's memorable and creative.
Clearly some people (such as the guy who created that vid) would rather we see ads in black and white and printed in simple letters rather than make
things fun and refreshing.
Does he go to Egypt, see the pyramids and instantly cry "OMG, Illuminati conspiracy!" cause I wouldn't doubt that for a second.
