This commercial was forced through my eyes on YouTube! I think I'll subscribe to their payment method because if I hate being forced to watch sh*tty-ass commercials like this one...it makes me wanna do this from a GREAT Apple Commercial...

Thank God for kids who love Obscure Things.

Just goes to show how far down the sh*thole Apple advertising has gone in the last 33 years. From an awesome, groundbreaking visual amazing prophetic commercial to a stupid garbage commercial about CGI animal emojis complete with sh*tty music. Sad. It like they're not even TRYING anymore!

They're advertising to an entirely different generation.  A couple of generations removed, actually.

^  True.  Kids probably aren't very impressed with what Apple was able to do 33 years ago.  Emojis are much more impressive.

Ummmm.... isn't the thread title "Apple commercial with a dumb-ass unicorn!" kind of redundant?

Because honestly, aren't ALL unicorns dumb-asses?

Has anyone ever seen one who WASN'T a dumb-ass?

Unicorn woman is annoying.  That music is annoying.  Her lip syncing to the music is annoying.  Why don't they make the woman wear dark brown makeup to look like the poo emoji?  That would be funny.  LOL

Agreed, although the technology behind the emoji is impressive. The way it's advertised, especially the music, is very irritating. Hense why I hate it. The 1984 ad even though it's old, uses intelligence, isn't irritating, still impressive to me. Although I do understand that you can't advertise a 33 year old ad to a millenial I wish they could advertise in a less annoying way.

Ok, so I watched it.  I knew that I'd regret it, and I did.  Wow.  I still can't believe that Apple is making such a big deal of that stupid animoji crap.  They've really sunk to a new level of low with that.

The amount of thought and creativity that went into creating the 1984 commercial...  Well, they just don't put that kind of thought and creativity into any of the commercials that they come out with today.

I don't hate Apple.  My computers are Apple.  I have had several iPads.  But that is just fkn stupid.

Personally, I wasn't really impressed with the "1984" themed commercial back in 1984 either.

I got an idea, instead of the guy with the glasses on the screen in the 1984 commercial. Put the animoji ad on the big screen and let Hammer Woman® smash it to pieces with her sledgehammer. Everybody wins!

Apple has been focusing on freggin emojis for the past 2, 3 years - especially embedding them into the iMessage system losing all credibility in my opinion. Goofy emojis, animojis, over rated Disney "stickers" and other kid like garbage. Not all iPhone users are 10, 11 years old. The latest IOS and OS for Apple is extremely flawed and filled with bugs!  This past Saturday, millions of iPhones stopped working and kept rebooting due to some silly time flaw in the system (12:15, Dec 2) caused a major crash for some odd reason.

Then I read they are working on REVERSE emojis for next year? The ability to flip an emoji facing  the other way....why??  What a waste of time and energy!

I just saw this one.  This is the shortest version of it that I could find and with this one, the shorter the better.  Damn.  There's even more of that dumbass animoji garbage.

Unlike Horseface & Unicorn, she doesn't resemble that critter at all.  Maybe they should have gone with a duck to match those ducklips...   LOL
