This ad can be interpreted to reinforce that notion that you can get all of your entertainment or creativity out of the newest screen.

Well, um.....yea. The company sells said screens.

I’m surprised this board doesn’t see it at least a little bit that way.

Because its a nonsense perspective.

Not sure why that matters lol. If Ford advertised their first car with everyone’s horses going into the glue factory, people may have had a similar visceral reaction as people are having regarding this apple ad.


You are intelligent enough to recognize that, even though a company sells screens, it might draw negative reactions if their ad campaign could be interpreted as “all you need in life is screen”

It has a sort of dystopian “own nothing and be happy” vibe. Get rid of all of these physical items that you may enjoy and replace it with a screen made by one of the biggest multinational companies in existence.
