What if you knew where someone uses photoshop proper and gave him a ring?
Could use better post production.

Idea not that interesting either.

They do this. These memorials are on friggin sidewalks here in NYC. So this line is very short-sighted.

Without coming off like a personal attack, these two old dinosaurs need to know when to stop. And I'm not talking about just these ads. I'm talking about stop. Period.
Their views on "issues" are getting more and more irrelevant and their work more stale. They've been doing ads since before many of you were even born. (Not that there's anything wrong with it.)
If you're at all familiar with their work from Fallon McElligott Rice days, you'll know they're still helplessly stuck in that place conceptually, emotionally and executionally.

I wouldn't blame people calling this campaign "boring." Because, what else WOULD you call it if it was neither shocking, touching or entertaining?
