anyone else feel the HP campaign went south with the anonymous spots that followed shaun white, jayz, etc.
I could really give a fuxor but why would they do that. Start with celebs then use some headless nobodies. It totally waters down what was a decent campaign.
Now they got that old washed up bitch santa up in there, wtf?

yeah, I don't care that much either but it just seems like a bad decision.

i agree. i haven't actually seen any of the newer said commercials but i would think "who gives a fuck what my mom does with her pc, and more importatnly why would anyone else care that she shops on ebay"
lame end to a solid start.

...and why do you have to cut her head off like that?

uninspired. You felt in the first one that you were getting a look at the innerworlds of these celebs but now it is just dissappointing.
i feel ripped off and that is not the reaction that a marketing team would want, I'm guessing.

i thought it raised their profile quite a bit, crit aside they needed something that would get them recognized like dell. the big evil in their minds, it worked

Wasn't the Santa one a tie in with The Santa Clause 3? It sounded like Tim Allen's voice.
I haven't seen any of the anonymous nobodies yet. They don't tend to advertise that stuff during Spongebob.

they should put bobby brown in one of those ads.

and i know for a fact that jay-z uses macs. i went to visit jay-z in the studio with a friend who works with him and he had a black macbook and alot of other macs running the studio.

Im pretty sure jayz would advertise blow jobs if it paid enough.

i thought hp was doing well, especially their stock has been going up and gaining more market share now.
but yeah, i think they spinned off this one bad.

any campaign that features shaun white is instantly doomed most hit looking fugger ever. i thought celebs were all supoosed to be decent looking.
