Nope. Not 'opening my heart' to the monster.
Do not normalize the monster.

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.
When are people going to realize Frankenstein is the scientist, not the monster.

Well it's a good thing that the monster still used the same outdated christmas bulb base as the rest of the lights on the tree, otherwise it would have required an adapter/dongle.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.
I think the point is you can't tell if it's a monster simply by looking at it's skin.
It is him. He's the 2nd person from Everybody Loves Raymond to play The Monster. Peter Boyle (The dad from the show) played him in Young Frankenstein. Puttin on the Ritz!

What IS his name? Abby Normal? He has to have a name, otherwise he can't get an Apple ID.
But I won't be able to download those new EMOJIS if I can't get my home network setup!!!
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.*

You should tweet Phil Schiller and tell him this. I would love to read his response, if any.
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?
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.
