> A company producing videos like that deserves to die a painful death. Why be such a hater? The videos are stupid, and funny. I liked them (or at least the two I've now see). Marketing money gets spent on far worse things, including stuff that is actively harmful to the world. It's not like the genre of silly bank commercials is something new-- banking is inherently pretty unexciting, so a commercial played straight is really boring and predictable. "We're trustworthy, you can tell by the vast landscapes we're showing with shaking hands". The criticism would be justified if the video was like some wolf of wall-street coke fueled money mania or something. But a bunch of mostly ordinary looking people singing some cheesy pro company song? Nothing wrong with that. I generally find people being genuine-- and sometimes that means awkward-- to be more trustworthy than a highly polished marketing machine that might be covering up for god knows what.
