Please Help Us Interpret This Strange Nokia Commercial

nokia_n900_freak.jpg

Watching this long form commercial for the Nokia N900 brings back less than fond memories of agency concepting sessions during which creative types (and everyone else for that matter) would begin to act like idiots, spout out idiotic buzz words and, in some cases, even burst into full blown freak outs like one dude does here.

It’s endearing to know this spastic behavior still exists in the industry. And if this commercial is trying to deliver some deeper message, it’s surely escaped us. And we’re the best test for this sort of thing. Because if you can’t connect with our simple mind, there’s no way you’re going to connect with the people you’d like to buy your phone.
