> [@Munch](#): > > Last year on another messageboard I frequent, a fantasy football one, someone posted a link to that kick-ass Honda commercial (the one that’s about 3.5 minutes long, and involves a giant chain reaction of events that culminates in the starting up of the new Honda, all the pieces of the reaction being made from parts of the car - extremely cool). Great fucking commercial. IIRC no tricks were used, and it took like a 1,000 takes or something. ---
