I love that commercial! It combines the awesomeness of dancing robots with the cuteness of dancing hamsters.

Oh, and it isn't like this is the only commercial to not explicitly explain its product. This commercial is selling brand image, not car features.

Finally, it's memorable so it certainly did its job. You thought about a Kia after the commercial ended, so that means it was an effective advertisement.

I thought it was supposed to be Crisis. Didn't look very Halo at all.



Kia has been using those hamsters for a while now. And the Party Rock music video is basically about infecting some post-apocalyptic world with "shuffling" dance fever.

Well, it's def. Halo inspired. I finally heard the song that inspired the commercial on the radio and it mentions Halo in the lyrics. Couldn't be coincidence.

Thank you for clearing that up. I know I couldn't think about anything else for the last month.
