Long Live L.i.s.a.

So, I’ve always enjoyed Mac commercials/ads…they suck you in somehow. Take the classic somewhat creepy commercial from 1984…you know, the one Ridley Scott directed that was something like a George Orwell inspired acid trip featuring Olivia Newton John’s evil twin?…

Well, that one along with that contemporary MacBook Air ad (which features the song “New Soul” by Yael Naim) proves one thing…Apple sure seems to have a firm grip on what’s hip…but they didn’t always…and I have PROOF!

I give you…Lisa!

Now, just so I don’t get Foundation potentially sued for slander…I will clarify that this commercial was out of a local Peoria store…HOWEVER…let me just say….”wtf?”

I would love to know what poor editor was forced to sift through that footage on a Saturday till 2 a.m! Not only is it cheesier than the long lost Kevin Costner “Lisa” ad…(click here), but it explores a whole new level of creepy, in this humble blogger’s opinion.

If anyone out there can find an apple commercial that tops Lisa, I’ll buy you a 40.
