These are not ads.

They are shorts created by Pixar.

Put these Before Movies In theaters

These could be used as short advertising clips in movie theaters befor a film begins.. Could showcase these with a pixar made film... Would influence the family group and inspire the little ones.. Gee Daddy that is really neat can I have one?"....😛 I must say you have a very captive audience in the theater and would tie in with Pixar's style. So, what do you think???....

Missing the big picture

The new iMac ads are able to penetrate the everyday barrage of commercials. There's something unique about a COMPUTER dancing like that. Whether all of us hard core fanatics like them or not - they will get attention they will stand out everyone will remember they saw them.

The possibility of more Adventures with iLuxor is also appealing. I think we've just seen the tip of the ice berg. (Especially liked the ping-pong idea!!!!)

Cheers Everyone!

As so many of you have pointed out, these are NOT ads.

If they were to be ads, there would be apple logo in the end, and the iThing would be hopping on a white backdrop.

...I did like the one with iBoy caught playing with his superdrive.

They are actually not streaming movies. Try right-clicking them and saving them, then playing them.

Although by now you've probably looked at them on your Mac at home. 🙄

If you still haven't seen them (and still can't), I will post them.

These are the Superbowl Ads that should have been.

This would have stuck out amid the Pavlovian Beer Ads.😀

Retract

I'm glad apple retracted the new iMac "ads" they weren't really ads, they were just cute little short vids made by Pixar. They weren't even upto Pixar standards. Sure they were cute and all but come on Pixar, that was pathetic.

As seen by the already enormous response to the new iMac in sales, I hardly think Apple even needs to advertise. Nevertheless, if they do, I think they will go with something a bit closer to their normal stuff. BTW, I really liked the Pixar shorts.
