(441 posts)1. I hope I'm wrong but
I expect this ad will go over like a lead balloon.

So it was target audience specific. I think if that was the case, they might have nailed it.

This ad is aimed at them
But even tho Im old and white I liked it.

(441 posts)4. That's what worries me.
You're "old and white and liked it"
Young people hate when old people pander to them. If they sense this as that, it'll be bad.

(4,533 posts)5. Ads are scientifically tested.
I dont think they just guess about impact.
I think they put young hipsters into hermetically sealed observation booths, attach electrodes to 168 points on their bodies, then measure the impact of the ads with really smart google and Netflix employees taking notes. Not to worry.

I know for a fact they only use 167 electrodes so I think your fibbing.
