I don’t know why, there’s just something kind of unsettling about this commercial.

It's weirdly reminiscent of their 1984 macintosh commercial.

Well I wasn’t even a twinkle in my father’s eye in 1984 so that’s not it.

Maybe it’s how everybody is wearing the same thing and doing the same thing. Like they’re all mindless zombies or something.

They are colorists.

They see people in colors.

I want my Nextel Direct Connect back.

Everyone there was just a number.

I’m OK with that.

Saw some of that ad last week and knew it was a cell phone ad. Didn't realize it was for Apple, but most of the cell phone ads got crazy a few years ago.

They may or may not be but mostly they’re poor.

If you watched the 1984 ad on youtube you'd see what I mean. I don't remember that year all that well, but it's one of the most famous and talked about TV commercials in advertising history.

I don't know about weird but would love to see unedited footage that shows how many of those idiots broke ankles, wrists, shoulders, etc. while filming it.

It just seems dystopian to me.
