Congrats on being a giant, rich, evil corporation. This is silly.

Isn't this the same agency that create the previous ad talking about the worst predators of the sea?...
advertising must be the only industry that let people say so contradictory ideas and messages, because PB must be one of the worst predators of the sea worldwide..

Nice idea for a "quick" print ad. (i have seen lots of boring ads for this kind of products) so ....well-thought-out !

Simple ideas are the best !

In light of recent events, I can't possibly think of a better thing for an oil company to promote than their own net worth. Just brilliant.

Perhaps is ego, perhaps is evil but we are here not to comment about our personal perception but to do a brief analysis of the ad, and this, is a good ad, no extraordinary but a good one.

I don't think I get the relevance of the helmets...do they just represent the rich company and then everyone else?

Doin' it for the points

I think the idea has been done before but I don't remember what company was.
Besides it, I don't catch the message. And, what is 10,00? is it 10,000 or 1,000?

Dream needs to be big!
