Apple Airs New iPhone TV Ads Featuring Samuel L. Jackson and Zooey Deschanel [Updated]

[MacRumors]

Apple rarely, if ever, uses celebrities in their advertising, particularly as themselves. The "I'm A Mac" ads featured Justin Long and John Hodgman, but they were playing characters rather than acting as a celebrity endorsement. One notable exception was actor Will Ferrell, who did a number of iPod ads a few years back.

[Delighted]

nice

 

[syklee26]

is he asking "do I look like a bitch?"

 

[mactmaster]

I must say siri doesn't work most of the time for me. I would disable it except I sometimes like to use dictation.

Nice ad though

 

[crisss1205]

All current advertisements have "3G" and some ads have the AT&T, Verizon, or Sprint logo even if they are made by Apple.

 

[jesusplay]

Say what again!

 

[ELA2]

siri [insert question here] Mo&$@! Fu$&@#!!!!

 

[DakotaGuy]

The iPhone 4S might be fine on AT&T, but as a Verizon customer living in the middle of a 4G LTE area it would be hard to go back to slow outdated 3G CDMA... Siri or not.

 

[dotheDVDeed]

I have had it with this m**** fu********** SIRI on this m**** fu*********** PHONE!

 

[ghostface147]

siri does not work very well.
does not work as advertised

For you. Works great for me.

 

[Shrink]

As for the ad...nothing much.

 

[Born Again]

Cool ...

Samuel Jackson makes me want to swear

 

[ECUpirate44]

Hopefully Siri 2.0 on the 2012 iPhone will bring the improvements needed to make it more than a novelty.

 

[Schmitty11]

.

 

[q64ceo]

Can someone turn up the volume a tad?

 

[pablo7]

All together in Eric Cartmans voice........Lame.

 

[Dr McKay]

Hopefully Siri 2.0 on the 2012 iPhone will bring the improvements needed to make it more than a novelty.

Would love celebrity voices as Siri. I'd definitely have GlaDOS

Or have a female British Siri voice, the male one doesn't sound right, I use the Australian one purely because she sounds gorgeous

 

[kemo]

If it would work as advertised I would be pleased to use SIRI, but its in a beta state, so I dont care that much for now..., a decent ad though!

 

[Dangerous Theory]

as the ad displays a Verizon logo at the end (edited out of this clip)

Is it just me who can see the VZW logo at the end of that clip?

 

[Carlanga]

good commercial, but needs some: motherfu....

Also, at the end you can still see the Verizon logo

 

[striker33]

<Insert witty comment about Snakes, Planes, and Siri HERE>

 

[*LTD*]

Mindshare writ large.

 

[ineedamac]

I saw this ad on SC tonight. I thought it was clever.

 

[puckhead193]

just saw it while watching the ranger game on MSG, very funny
