Lexus Brings Magazine Ads To Life

[HardOCP News]

If the company was being truthful, the title of this video would really be "Lexus makes unnecessarily complicated advertisements that actually requires a tablet to view properly." Terribly stupid...but still kinda cool.

so they're done ricing out cars, now they're ricing out magazines...

I agree with Steve. Cheesy and over the top, but a neat concept.

 

[DraginDime]

magazines must have been tired of video's hogging all of the commericals

The Mad magazine foldups were better. I used to get a hard-on for those.

needs a QR code that automatically links to that particular video otherwise it's another complicated step.

first thing I thought when I watched the video is ...."why not just watch the interactive ad on my Android tablet / iPad? Why bother putting it under the page in the magazine at all?"

I agree with Steve 100%, it's very cool but extremely stupid.

 

[MindBuster]

What the hell did I just watch

Not to mention listen to.

Exactly! WTF is the point of the magazine?

 

[Techx]

what kind of idiot is going to go OUT OF THEIR WAY to watch another fucking ad? they are out of their minds, all the marketing departments in the world can go suck on it

 

[Cbshahji]

hum, i think the interactive ad doesn't have car's body, if it does than yep no need for magazine, than again you buy magazine to read other stuff and hardly to look at the ads.

 

[choppedliver]

Oh, there's part of an ad. Let me go get my ipad and stick it under the page.

I've felt "dumber" for having watched something really stupid before, but this takes the cake.

So what if I'm reading the the magazine on my iPad?
