Bravia Commercial?

Apologies if this is a repost. I did I search for Bravia, then a search for balls. And then after looking at the first page of results for balls, I gave up

Bouncy Balls: The BRAVIA Commercial
When you're introducing the next generation of television, you want to make an impact - but that doesn't mean you have to shout at the top of your voice. And it doesn't mean you have to be predictable. To announce the arrival of the BRAVIA LCD and 3LCD range, we wanted to get across a simple message - that the colour you'll see on these screens will be 'like no other'.

Sending 250,000 multi-coloured 'superballs' bouncing down the streets of San Francisco may seem the strangest way to do this, but that's exactly what Danish director Nicolai Fuglsig did for the BRAVIA commercial in July this year. San Franciscans have seen some unusual things in their time, but even this gave them something to talk about. And we've got the feeling that this commercial is going to do exactly the same thing.

Ugh, I've tried with three different browsers on two different machines (one running Win2K and one running XP) and nothing is working.

I wanna see this!

I have quicktime, but apparently it's not the right version...at least I'm assuming. I'm loading the latest version now. I hope this works. I can't wait to see this.

Though, even if I don't, I can still appreciate the post. I followed link upon link and ended up at www.flickr.com and this guys photo album. He's got some really impressive photos. That was more than worth it.

Very cool. I just realized that I hadn't restarted my machines after I DLed the most recent version. Doh!

So, yah, I got to see it and that was very very cool. Thanks for posting this Ben!

That's narly. That's awesome. So cool. I wish I could've seen that in person. I bet they're still picking up superballs.

LOL I was thinking the same thing SL. The mom in me was all, "How in the world will they pick all of those up?"

My other thought was, I wonder what they did with all those balls?

It would have been nice if they gave them to a homeless shelter or a shelter for women/children. Kids love those dang things!

i couldn't help but cringe when I saw them heading towards the cars! i don't think i'd care to have hundreds of little rubber balls whacking into my car. and i hope no one was dumb enough to be crossing the street at the time, cuz imagine looking up to see a wave of bouncy balls about to hit you!

yeah, the things i think of!

cool commercial though, and it would be fun to see in person!
