It’s so funny to me how fine a line there is between “aspirational and futuristic” versus “kind of freaking ridiculous”. The original commercials were really forward-looking for their day (even if the ideas in them weren’t exactly new) but the 2012 ones are mostly just goofy. No, AT&T, I would not want a badly cosplaying dude to teach my kid history, or be able to record my dreams to share on the internet, or get “nano surgery” while playing violin (?). And their vision of virtual reality is a big salad bowl on your head?
