good editing but the cloud gods aren't as impressive as the "cloud studies" r&d descrip makes them sound, and it's not "armageddon" if the cause is a light rizzle...
so a bit of a letdown, ya

sorry if the -result- is a drizzle

cool spot
-
but the promo copy :"The Mill began R&D eight months in advance of the airdate, back in November 2003,intricately researching the complex forms and structures of clouds. "
i jsut wanted to say for the record ....
this sentence, as bad ass as mill is, makes me think of the mill r&r dept chilling out looking at ck=louds.... even tho i'mn sure it was way more intense than that --- the effect of the sentence makes me laugh a little.

Looks pretty nice to me, well the effects and camera work anyway. Not a big fan of the concept.

seemed a bit forced to me, effects werent bad and the idea neither but jsut sorta left me bleh, i expect it for something like Kia or a ford focus not a mrecedes

I think the concept could have been presented better. It'd take 2 or 3 more times of watching to figure out those were "Gods" or whatever if I hadn't been briefed. Also would have liked to see something more happen from the shadows being cast, like the ground drop away. BUT...This is one of the better commercials I've seen to date, last commercial I remember like I will this one is the PS2-PS9 commercial.

i guess if he was being chased by actual clouds and not shadow s i might like it more, i dunno im too lazy and uninterested to wait for it to download again...

It's a good concept on paper... but the presentation is a little weak and the effects are kind of corny. The clouds need a lil evil'n up and if you can't buy the rights to Kashmir by Zep... find another appropriate song instead of ripping it off.

isnt that the gay puff daddy godzilla version of kashmir
- versa0
nice you guys nailed it with the song....i couldn't place it, but it bothered me
- blackspade0
yea just seems like an anti-climax or sumthin, the clouds get all dark n angry and THEN.... then,.. nothing really.. hmm.

hah, you can see a jet stream in one shot
- brandelec0
whatever, i got more satisfaction in the 90 sec spot than the last 3 bond films put together

the super effects spots are getting a bit old to me, the more dialogue based spots ive found more interesting.. but given they are selling cars i suppose what can they really do
