Mitsubishi Lancer Lost in Silly Chase Scene Ad

CapturFiles-Sep-21-2012_12.28.31.jpg

Point of advice to john st., the agency that created this commercial for the Mitsubishi 2013 Lancer; if you’re going to spend 60 seconds highlighting a vehicle, you might want to shoot it in a way so that the viewer can actually see what kind of car they are being sold.

The spot, your typical chase that really isn’t a chase, focuses in on a guy who spots a vehicle in his rear view mirror. Turns out it’s not who he thinks it is. And we find out he’s not who we think he is.

It’s a bit of a forced ant-stereotype combined with a lame joke we’ve seen a million times before.

Psychology says the most painful friendships to lose aren’t the ones that exploded, they’re the ones where you slowly realized you were the only person maintaining the illusion that it was mutual, and the grief isn’t about losing them — it’s about finally admitting you never had what you thought you did
