Case in point, the latest car ad from equinox I think it was. They confuse diners waiting for their car at the valet by bringing them a different car, the equinox. One of the features is 360 vision, meaning it has cameras in front and back. One of the ladies then asked, “how do they even do that?” As if in this day and age, someone who can afford a car like that and pays to have it parked and retrieved is so clueless that they have never heard of cameras. Oh my god, they can see things we can’t! Bad, bad, writing. Of course, they say it’s real people, but I call BS.

Ads or no Ads?
So I have been finding myself using Hulu more and more and contemplating the option to turn off ads that they offer. For the cost, the time savings might be worth it. I like ads and marketing, but it seems like they have amped up frequency and repetition; probably to sell the no-ads option. That said, I noticed a new type of ad making it’s debut, the interactive ad. The recent Mass Effect Andromeda game is giving an interactive offering on console. If you hit the ‘A’ button, it offers you more info and videos about the game. Just what we need, ads that let you see more ads! Sigh. To pay or not to pay?
