So as long as it's street racing, drifting through intersections, breaking 100mph in crowded downtowns, and revving your engine loudly in order to menace pedestrians without ever hitting them, then it's fine?
For real: what other product is regularly portrayed in advertisements being used in such criminally reckless ways?
- s1artibartfast 5y ago>What other product is regularly portrayed in advertisements being used in such criminally reckless ways I would say that this is common in advertising for movies and video games. Both regularly depict fantasy behavior that would be illegal if anyone did it in real life.
- hannasanarion 5y agoI didn't ask for movies and video games that have crimes in them, I asked for advertisements, pieces of media that intrude into people's lives whose sole purpose is to tell people to buy and use a product, which demonstrate the use of that product exclusively by depicting criminal (and often violent) behavior.
- s1artibartfast 5y agoSo I went back and rewatched the video and didn't see anything violent or illegal at all. I guess some of the vehicles depicted like the drag car are not street legal. If you exclude product placement in fiction then I can't think of any commercials with illegal Behavior. What is the central point that you are trying to make? You don't like cars that go fast or the depiction of them in commercials?
