Odd Commercial

In car commercials, people usually speed by cars they normally wouldn't. Great reviews are shown like in film preview. Physically attractive people are usually driving the cars. They also will try to persuade the viewer through some special limited time deal. It's a happy joy ride in these automobiles. It seems like they were just given the car to drive around in and show off for the public. Oh, they probably were, but anyway.

There's a new commercial for the Jetta and how do they show the car off in these 30 seconds? Through head-on collisions! That's right! Then, the folks in the Jetta get out of the car. They're allright and the car has only a slight dent! Amazing! The price, the reviews, the look, the speed, the attractive specimens in the car don't matter anymore! It's all about how well the car can take a hit! My, how I want to buy a Jetta now! They sure know how to convince their customers! They've convinced me and I'm not a customer. Guess what? It's going to stay that way!

I have a question for Jetta, if you were watching an airline commercial, what would make you feel better and safer? Lovely elevator music, stats about the safety of the airline, and the plane flying off above the clouds, as the catch phrase is let out, such as, "We love to fly and it shows" or seeing a plane crash and seeing some survivors from the accident, saying that in case of a crash, it's the safest airline to fly with? I'm sorry, but I'll go with the former as opposed to the latter.
