While I don't know about other places, here in the UK they have to place a "sequences shortened" at the bottom of the ad by law iirc so as not to "false advertise" phones and other such things working as fast as they do on the advert.

While we're on Zooey, somebody explain to me the internet obsession of wanting Zooey Deschanel and Joseph Gordon-Levitt to get together and make babies.

It is. They replaced that one (and the girl version) with the celebrity commercials after the lawsuits.

It's the same in the US. There's a disclaimer for everything these days.

One explanation I've seen is that when you take the iPhone to a Genius Bar with a problem, they completely wipe it for you.

Yeah, back when she first came out see seemed cute and thin, then all of a sudden I noticed she how wide she seemed. Maybe it was the angles she was being shot at, and she was always wide.

I'm honestly surprised that it actually works at all. Pretty cool technology.

I wish there was a version of the Malkovich one where it's just the shot of him through the window laughing, and it just says Malkovich for like 80 seconds.
