I didn't think it was interesting either, but am surprised by all the Samsung hate. I think they make good TV's and some other things.

Yes, they did devastate Sony, but just by making a better TV. It wasn't personal.

Better? Try cheaper. Sony stuff is of a much higher quality, but in current times price is more important.


Samsung has cheaper products because they can produce their products at a lower cost compared to Sony. Sony probably makes the same quality products, but sells at a higher price cause their production cost is greater.

lol here both brands are almost the same price for similar model releases, perhap like $10 difference tops. Sometimes Samsung costs more and sometimes Sony.



 

 

$15M for that.... what a waste. 



               

Actors: $14.9m
Camera: $99,999
Script: $1

also i would like to say that that advert was not funny and actually kind of annoying at how funny it was trying to be. i mean i love Seth and that other guy was in Friends which is great.. but this advert was not great. infact with that 15mil they should have just made another episode of Friends.. now THAT would have been great


Did this guy just insult Paul Rudd?  I think this guy just insulted Paul Rudd.  This guy is dead to me.

From my personal experience Sony is better than Samsung. I'm much more satisfied with my Sony products than with my Samsung products and all members of my family and friends who could do a first hand comparison agree with it, so I stand by what I said. It's not based by any research, just what I and people I know see and notice. I had a Samsung phone, now have a Sony one and I'm not coming back. The difference in quality is huge.

And the thing that settles it all against Samsung is that Samsung makes some of the most disgusting cars in the world. They are truely a disgrace. And I love cars.



Wii U is a GCN 2 - I called it months before the release!

Not funny. Wow, Samsung is really spending lots of money these days. What happens when the smartphone market bubble bursts? What will happen to Apple and Samsung?

Nothing will happen to Samsung, since they are the leaders of most of the markets  they are in. The smartphone market is the biggest one of course but why would it disappear overnight?

The fuck! It's funny if you know the actors. "Maybe in 1998 you were the next big thing"

"You make people physically uncomfortable" - lol

"You know, let's find a favourable review of one of your movies. No results found"

"You take a picture, can draw on it and I can make you look like you're still in your fourties." - lmao

Maybe that's why I didn't get it, I was born in 1998.

I have no idea who they are and I was born in 1985

As a representative of mainstmunity and football fan, I laughed at this ad and so did the people I was watching the football game with. So this one was a winner with us mainstreamers


LOL Funny.

I didn't think the ad was bad. It probably would've been more helpful to know who the people were. It wasn't hilariously funny but one of the guys was cute. 

The only thing is I walk away from it not getting what message Samsung wanted to send,... other than look were one of the big successful companies one of these ( older?) actors want to work for us? In fact its even funnier we dont know who the hell they are...

BTW, I used to be HTC but now I am Samsung. Own two Samsung tablets including the one the guy was holding in the video... I am not a loyalist, so if some other comes out with some awesome hardware I will switch companies.
