It is the perfect counter foil to the crazy visuals. Anything more upbeat or with extra expression would just clash against all the amazing graphics. Plus, because it's so low key i actually can make out the words---and I get that Comcast has all these great products that give out so many choices to so many different target market. A great set of ads. I remembered the name of the company (how could you not? It was spelled out at the end of each ad!), what it did---and it was so visually rich that I have watched it many more times over the last few days than i care to admit. I saw juno too, and i don't think the visuals were a rip at all. Sorry guys, but I couln’t disagree more about the music. It is the perfect counter foil to the crazy visuals.

I guess that what bothers me is that even if you don't read about it, you can still figure out that Juno was the reference. However, after watching it without the music, I'm sure this would have been better served with different music. Then it wouldnt be so obvious. The ilustration and animation is still amazing and chris martin's stuff is awesome.

I don`t now , the music is bad , the girl is to shy , it don`t act very good. And i don`t like the texture of the 3d models . It`s a nice project but not a very good one. Hmmm!
