I like it because it's completely unexpected and quite creative. Don't know how they came up with the Frankenstein Monster. Is it some huge thing in any part of the world or somehow connected to Christmas? Not I'd be aware of. I know the Frankenstein Monster is from Universals Classic Monster universe, which is about to get a reboot for some time (to put something against the Marvel and DC superhero universe owned by Disney and WB). So maybe Apple creative got the idea from some meetings with these studio guys…? Either way pretty cool to come up with something new, at least in their ads. ;)

Great Video!

Are they selling Apple or something else?

My vote, something else.

Thanks for the video message!
 
It's sad that nowadays people only seem to care for each other when something bad has happened. Sounds strange, but that feeling after 9/11 when everyone felt like family (and I'm in Germany) was pretty good.
 
I've just re watched it and it's quite clever. Frankenstein Monster was a functioning being made from the amalagamation of various bits and pieces of other people. It worked but was very cumbersome.

A bit like the new MacBook Pro. Which requires many many addtional dongles just to be useful and even then it doesn't have many advantages of its functional cousins.

Nice comparison Apple.

Well it's a good thing that the monster still used the same outdated christmas bulb base as the rest of the lights on the tree, otherwise it would have required an adapter/dongle. So in that sense, he's nothing like the new MB Pro.

Yes it is clever, as you state, but doesn't there come a point when all the old and tiresome jabs at Apple become "very cumbersome."

Maybe many of you would rather be the haters in the video than the little girl.

Sadly it would seem way too many of the posters here have become bitter old market driven Scrooges and really only wonder what's under the tree for them.

Merry Bah Humbug to those!

Of course these will also point the finger at someone eel
 
Open your heart to everyone...with all new EMOJIS!

meanwhile, say goodbye to Airplay...


Airplay is going away?
If you mean the router, who cares? Why does Apple need to make a router? If they never had would anyone be saying "Apple really needs to get into the router business!" ? Anyone?
 
Says a lot about people complaining on this forums.

They never used Apple products, don't know what they are upset for. Buyers remorse? Clickfarms in India?
You're so wrong. The long term Apple users are complaining. We've got good reference with the past. We don't like the soulless, money focused, lazy, fashionable, second rate hard- and software company Apple is becoming.
