Latest Uber Advert

Has anyone seen the latest Uber advert with Robert De Niro?

That advert is just sublime. Genius.

If you haven't seen it take a look. He is currently being sued by his ex-PA & part of her complaint is he forced her to get an Uber to collect a drink for him.

    A bit unrealistic.

    That must've cost them a fortune. If they can afford Niro, they should pay their poor drivers more.

    Agree. After a few seconds I hovered over the timer to see it was more than three minutes long. That's not an advert. It's bizarre.

    Surge pricing, is pure averis and immoral.

    Do the drivers get surge pay in line with the increased fares, I doubt it.

    I'm not against business making money, they have to but. There are profits, healthy profits, huge profits. Anything more and your deliberately ripping people off and taking advantage of them and your market position.

    Not to even mention they probably don't pay all their taxes, entirely legally.

    Great stuff, is that a YT only ad? Can't imagine a 3 minute commercial in this age of everything jostling for attention.

    Am always looking for more "subtle" comedy shows with humour like this from across the pond, but it's a bit thin on the ground.

    So far found:

    Flight of the Concords
    Documentary Now!
    Nathan For You
    How to with John Wilson
    Joe Pera Talks to You (technically Canada but..)

    Just realised also "the membership for people that go places" relates to her alledged theft of his airmiles.

    So good on so many levels.
