This ad of course references the famous VW ad The Force: http://adsoftheworld.com/media/tv/volkswagen_the_force

BUTTTTT that ad worked......

The comments are way more positive and the rating for the ad is much better.

It fails at being really funny.
The VW ad was soooooo much better. So from an advertising point of view this doesn't really work for me. Nice try though.
I do wonder how the licensing negotiations went though...

VW is a beloved brand. So is their advertising. I have to wonder if this is going to hurt VW or help them.

That was a long way for me to go for a quick and unsatisfying drink.

This. Greenpeace you're full of BS and we know it. Take the production value of your "Episode 2" and go save a whale or something, douchebags.

I love the twist they gave here, and at the same time they managed to create an even cuter ad. So this is a win for me.

riding someone else's creative as a vehicle to put their name out there overly sprinkled with "blog worthy" fanboy porn...im sure VW isn't the first to lobby against raising their standards because rapid change hurts any +1 century old industry

whats next?.... MADD's new spokesman is "The Most Interesting Designated Driver in the World"

-srry...its the morning

Their ads are no better than PETAs. Shame.

You can't throw shit on people's beloved stuff, this is like spitting in the face of babies. Greenpeace is taking a huge step backwards. Poor thinking, no insight at all. Actually, I want to buy a VW now, more than ever.
