[QUOTE="MetalGear_Ninty"]It is so extensively cliched and chessy that it 'is' good. The ad works becuase it is funny, creative, original, and shows immense ingenuity on the part of the students. The ad is designed to allows prospective candidates to realise that Yale isn't standard, nor boring, but rather clever, innovative and fun.MetalGear_Ninty
Just like every other university says :P?
...Precisely...every other university says it; Yale sings it. Yale showed that to the candidate, in actually demonstrating those qualities. Actions speak louder than words.EDIT: It's all part of the effect my friend; notice the fact that the dude at the start was akin to Obama, this is becuse he possesses all the necessary connotations of hope, aspiration, and opportunity. These people are smart, they know what they are doing.
You are really argumentative today :P A lot of thought might have gone into it but that doesn't change the fact that I disliked it and had to laugh a lot of times while watching it. Just like this advert is technically effective, I still dislike it.
