Wow. i didn't really intend this to get so deep.
I don't think anyone would consider it 'visually appealing'.
In terms of ripping, aren't they just piggy backing off Volkswagen's own huge success with the Child/darth vader thing? How else would you as a charity hope to compete with Volkswagen?Have you checked out the rewards-based movies once you engage with the content?
So you're taking a beautifully executed Volkswagen concept and piggy-backing it, turning that in on Volkswagen to hit home a simple idea that they may be the dark side.
Where has the Nazism come from other than coldarchon's comparison (or the fact that you could consider the Dark side as an analogy for Nazism in Star Wars, which is acknowledged and nothing invented by Greenpeace to infer Nazism in Volkswagen).
- You've not gone ‘deep’. ’The dark side’ = barely veiled fascism, a nice stand in to avoid invoking Godwin.detritus
- i made my comment without reference to this ‘coldarchon’ chap.detritus
- I agree. But if it hadn't followed a huge VW Star Wars ad, it would be unequivocally cynical.babaganush
