I get a weird feeling watching this advert.
You know the one?? There all dancing in the train station.
Something makes me cring watching it. Not sure what it is. Everyone dancing and there fake smiles. Everyone taking footage on there phones and getting all excited.
Maybe im over-thinking here, but creeps me out everytime i watch it. Maybe its the way they all dance the same, they all conform, the aggressive dance moves.
Anyway just wondered if anyone felt the same.

TV = bad. Seriously you're one step away from staring at white noise 4 inches away from the screen, while while everyone else in the house is asleep
"they're heeeere"

Remember realitycheck that some of the dancers are put there to start things off.
What upsets me is the fact that the drones just copy an idea and without thinking they do what others are doing. It is a mob mentality.
It is like tapping your feet to music that you did not put on or decided to listen to. It is background noise that your body unconsiously listens to and reacts.
I know what you mean Joe911. But it aint always a good thing.
Nelly.

I think your right its mob mentality. Dance like us, be as cool as us.
I thought it was all staged?
Theres no way people could just join in like that and dance so perfectly together without training together.
I hate the whole mentality nowadays. Got to have the best phone etc etc. And i dont hate it because i couldnt have one, ive been relatively sucessful in my life (so far). I purposely use a crap phone just to stick 2 fingers up at it all.
Anyway, thanks for the link, just watched it again and still freaks me out.

Has anyone not noticed how aggressive the dancing is?
STanding closer than 1 foot to some people and swinging there arms and legs about.

I agree with you, the advert annoys me for some reason, despite it being mostly positive and poeple uniting, for what reason however ?
I believe there is probably some subliminals being pumped in by the masonic run t mobile company. Wouldn't be suprised if it was telling the crowd to go around burning those who listen to david icke/

Freeze frame at 1:40 or a few moments later its in your face. (clue look at the hand at the end of the green and white sleeve).

When Manchester won the Commonwealth Games there was a free outdoor gig in the city centre. James played at it and during the song Sit Down virtually the entire audience (of thousands) sat down. It was shown on TV and there were only about three people not sitting down, one was a mate of mine, I felt pretty proud of him.
Got nothing against James btw, it just showed a refusal to follow the crowd to 'avoid looking stupid'.

If I'm watching anything with adverts I normally turn away from the screen at that point, but this one got my interest and had me looking at the screen because I was so, as you say 'creeped out' by it, initially because I could hear it.
I actually think there is some pretty brutal psychological manipulation going on with it. The whole thing is repulsive.
