Wait, isn't this the same agency that deceived the Cannes jury with the "Nelka-Rent-a-Car" fraud, and took home a Gold for it ??

They're from Costa Rica...

No man, the fraud is JWT, no BBDO (thousands of years of difference)

A good ad is a simple read. You should look at it and get it right away. What do I get after seeing this ad for the first time? Toyota is in the business of killing sharks. Yes I know that's not what they're saying, and I know what the real message is, but it doesn't read that way at all.

This is just absolutely horrible. I'm sorry but it is.

car-adds are getting more and more stupid. This is a very bad example.
Delete the Toyota-Logo and but Greenpeace instead. Then the idea will work.

I am sorry; maybe this is an ad for smarter people, but please have a little patience and explain it to me.
My question is: is it well known (like most people have this knowledge??) that a major side effect of oil exploiting is killing animals? Shouldn’t we worry first about air pollution, environment (like plants) issues?

Besides that.. I understand: you buy a Toyota, Toyota needs less fuel that other cars, that means that less oil must be exploited and animals live longer and happier. Yeeeey, let’s love Toyota for letting animals live! Light a candle everybody!
