Mmmmm...flying bacon.

HE MADE A MINECRAFT MAGIC FLYING CARPET!!!

It's like Second Life without all the furries and magical flying dildos. Whether that's a good thing or not is a matter of opinion, I suppose.

How long until Minecraft turns into low-poly Second Life, I wonder?

not their product anymore
A burger is a piece of beef with some vegetables and colored pastes on top which has been sandwiched between a cut roll. That's what the ad shows, what the restaurant prepares, and what the consumer buys and eats. So it IS their product which has been idealized to endure the rigors of a shoot while looking good. Film-makers do what they do and work with the subject to tell a story. In this case, the story is that when you go to the restaurant you will be served a piping hot, delicious hamburger. And that's what you get.
"But boo hoo hoo - I wanted the Hamburger GOD in the ad! Waaaaah!"
I regret having to be the man who shatters your delusions - but TV isn't real life. Oh - and Santa Claus isn't real, the Easter Bunny doesn't exist, and man-made Global Warming is a political hoax.
Actors on TV play a character, and get taped up, made up, slapped into designer clothes, and put on a set with radically different lighting & furnature than you'd experience in a real setting. You don't expect actors to look & act like thier TV show counterparts. So why would you expect the food you see in real life to look EXACTLY like stuff in an ad? The restaurant isn't a million dollar set with lights and that burger you're buying wasn't prepared by a Master Chef from specially hand-picked ingredients. Welcome to planet Earth. :eyeroll: If you're naive enough to think you're going to get that perfectly idealized hamburger GOD for $1.00 at McDonalds, then you really need help.


^It's an interesting argument, but fails on one large point: TV shows and movies aren't directly selling a product. The entire point of a TV ad is to advertise the product which is for sale (i.e. If you give us a certain amount of money, this is the product you will receive). However, it isn't the product you receive is it? Any person who eats at a fast food restaurant can tell you that.

This is why toy manufacturers were made, via court order, to show the hand of the child moving the toy in TV ads and not just show the toy move by itself. It's false advertisement.

This is a damn close parallel to a "magical" flying toy.

Um, isn't all of creation less than 6000 years old? What happened to all the magic, flying people, and talking snakes? That makes far more sense. Does it not?



BTW, Sagan was a brilliant man. His death was a great loss to humankind.

"so much love to give" is so good there's no word for it...

"carry on turn me on" by space is even better than "magic fly" (but probably no video).

super upvote for the title and tags here...
