About that video.
I was going to write something scathing about it, but that'd be useless. All I'll say is imitating Wes Anderson is tired and boring. Looks like it was fun to make and some people will like it for sure, but I think it pales in comparison to the Etsy recruiting video:

I hate to bring this up this tired discussion, but is this a NYC vs SF thing? The Etsy video could almost be considered dark and pessimistic, while the Twitter video is full of whimsy and infantilization.
- seiji 16y agoThe twitter video looks like it's recruiting for a private high school (join our clubs! have friends! be awesome! we're so wacky!). The etsy video looks like a formalistic Hollywood trailer from the 80s. I don't want to go back to high school or be stuck in the 80s. :(
- ecaron 16y agoHow funny! I was going to mention Etsy, also, but their jobs page isn't working right (http://www.etsy.com/jobs/ http://www.etsy.com/jobs/) and I didn't want to start an off-topic thread about them, because I have nothing but awesome things to say regarding Etsy. And I love both videos, but I'm based in Minneapolis. So that might mean that both coasts like 1 so I like them both, or just that people from Minnesota like everything:)
