What I found incongruous was that there wasn’t a single shot of the USA in the whole ad.
Also, that song is about America. It could even be argued that that song is about the continental US. As much as I’m usually for world peace, all inclusive, blah, etc. commercials, that’s not the song to use while you’re showing me a wild kangaroo.
I wasn’t even really watching the commercial–I was typing my complaint about it here on the SDMB and double-checking my use of “incongruous”.
the 'roo could have escaped from a us zoo.
so far the second half commercials are a tad less depressing. i don’t belive i saw any dorito commercials.
There was one in the first half. A guy on an airplane
No idea what’s incongruous about it. Maybe I’m missing something.
Redwood forest and Florida beach were USA. I’d bet a few others too. Jeep Wranglers are hugely popular around the world, makes perfect sense that they are selling this new off roader to a world wide audience and not being so damn provincial.
ah yes, that wasn’t up to usual dorito standards.
There were plenty of shots in the us: California, gulf stream waters, new york harbor…the whole first part of the commercial was shot in the us. I thought it was neat to include the rest of the world too. YMMV
Ima go buy some Loctite now.
Loctite with a good one!
Yeah ugly 90s

bud lite pac man was nice, nothing sinister there.
I wanna play Pac Man!
i was concerned that the hare would be roadkill. thankfully it was not a nationwide commercial.
It’d be a great party rental (PacMan) but I don’t know if I’d like to have hundreds of strangers watch me fail miserably.
Does anyone else want to avoid going to McDonald’s for the next two weeks? It looks like another way to be humiliated publicly.
There’s like 3 dads commercials that’s all sappy and tries to make you cry, what’s up with that?
that was a doritos commercial! i do hope he shared with the pig.
What’s worse would be I would call my mom to tell her I love her…and she would probably be happy
Then she would learn I did it for a sandwich…
More stop beating your wives commercials ?
I wonder if actual actuaries will find LiLo’s ad funny…
Would you believe that commenters on various websites are complaining that the ad is pro-Evolution?:rolleyes:
The verses NOT included in the ad have a message that the land was for all the People not just for the capitalists. But for all we know Woody today may have been in favor of people buying US-made cars, just as Dylan did with last year’s ad.
