cognitivedissonance      There's not enough stars in the heavens for this sort of evil. This is a celebratory fuck-you dance that they got away with it.

Cena_mark Evil? Its just a commercial. Its not like they should be put out of business for having an oil spill. They do need to be held responsible for it, but they still need to advertise to survive. Exxon is still around despite the Valdez.
|
Potrod You're saying BP came out with these commercials 3 years ago as a PRE-EMPTIVE celebratory fuck you dance that they WOULD get away with it 3 years later?

Billie_Joe_Buttfuck y'all is fuckin babies

Camonk      The balls on these guys
|
The Mothership      Other oil companies are all like 'Bleaggh!' but BP is all like 'Wheeee!'
|
Rovin  The YouTube page says it's from 2007. Strange definition of new.
|
Erix Yeah, this is really, REALLY old.
|
splatterbabble  I remember putting this video on air as a commercial for CBS in 2007.
|
garcet71283 New video will be like those Toyota commercials probably, except unlike Toyota, they did something wrong and weren't just dragged through the mud by union funded flunkies.
|
Potrod Not sure how these commercials are "ballsy" considering they pre-date the recent oil spill by years.
|
themilkshark     Pretty accurate, we're all oversized spoiled infants rolling around in our cages on wheels, sucking down gasoline similarly to how we suck down McDonald's imitation food.
|
Slumgullion   Not new; not diabolical.
|
Architeuthis Tux      Five for evil, alright.
No, it isn't new. It's probably a great indicator of what we'll get later this year though, or next year if BP survives.
This ad was made shortly after BP was forced to admit it had been negligent in a much, much smaller spill in Alaska, which was itself a cap on 15 people dying in a refinery fire.
I'm guessing next year we'll get an ad like this one with hundreds of smiling babies washing sea turtles.

kennydra     I've never seen an oil company commercial that didn't utterly sicken me. They're all evil.
-1 star for it being old though.
|
Xenocide      If we make our logo green, people will think our company is environmentally responsible! Brilliant!
Also, we should portray all other gas stations as dirty smoggy places that sell, of all disgusting things, GAS, whereas we sell....um....gas, but the kind that makes driving babies happy.

James Woods     pft, old.
|
Rodents of Unusual Size      They forgot to include the part where the kids starve to death because oil killed their dad's business.

Chalkdust     four stars for utilizing an alternate interpretation of "nightmare fuel" tag
