Coca-Cola was there too. Lacks uniqueness. And why does it remind me of SonyEriccsons' ripp off Milton Glaser

I agree with a guest comment. First time ever but hey. I don't believe that Pepsi can own "History" the way Coke does. I think they can own the 80s and up but trying to show it being the choice of those generations in the 30's through 70s is kind of a stretch. Pepsi stay with what you are good at. "The choice of this generation" because is if you were the choice of those generations then you not for "Change". I love the Art Direction. The editing. And the use of media. Especially down here in Miami. The new font represents Art Deco very well.

Just saw the ad yesterday. I think it's brilliant. Hard economic times, a war that we are going to be "ending" a revolution of sorts with a black president. And Pepsi has been there through it all. How many brands have been there for us consumers through thick and thin? What it's lacking in one sense, it's reassuring the masses that everything will be A OK.

It looks like a BBDO spot.
I thought they fired BBDO?

The Obama symbol (or icons that resemble it) = overused already and the guy hasn't even served a day yet. Question: what would happen if the team who put this together actually had to come up with a concept and couldn't just throw money at an execution? I'd love to see it.

3. Stop ripping this whole 'change+obama-mania' thing to bits - its already losing its appeal.
4. I like the new design and the line tho...
