U.S. Cellular Brings Love to the World

Oh for fuck’s sake! Are you kidding me? “That’s why we do more than just connect calls. We believe in connecting people.” Seriously? Well, U.S. Cellular, if you are so great at connecting people and making the world a perfectly happy, feel-good place, why don’t you dial up Osama Bin Laden, Kim Jong-il, Omar Al-Bashir, Pervez Musharraf, Than Shwe and the rest of the world’s dictatorial idiots, feed them some of your feel-good crap and see if you can, in fact, help the world become a better place. That, at least, would be worthy of producing these sixty seconds of sugar-coated puffery.

Damn, that was bitchy! Hey, at least it’s beautifully shot, moody and not yet another idiot Verizon spot. And the outdoor isn’t bad.
