I think the bud commercial with the horses was the worst ad. I think they are pushing the limit of creativity with that one. Maybe next year they will leave the horses in the barn.

It was the best ad. Controversial and confusing, but still very entertaining.

1) How can an entry level “sports car” win green car of the year? Sports cars should be banned from entry.

2) The Green Police were NAZIs-scary part. SAN FRAN has laws about disposal of compost. One city has attempted to ban garbage disposals.

3) Not sure if spoofing the tree huggers or the anti-tree huggers.

4) Going green is no longer popular.

5) This will generally backfire (ha) on Audi. I rule their cars out now along with GM. But I do like turbo-diesels-a efficient technology.

6)Should have got mall cop to star in it.

I am amazed by how many columnists apparently don’t use a dictionary. The ad is NOT satire. Satire is an attack, via humor, on something of which the author strongly disapproves.

Audi, in contrast, makes clear on its web site that it totally supports and approves of everything the Green movement does worldwide. Audi admits that its ad is a “caricature,” and claims that Gestapo tactics are “humorous”; but Audi’s message is that if you buy their car, you can comply instead of resist the Nazis.
