[RPM]

4. Each is as bad as the other.

Impossible to say that one is worse.

5. they're both bad

but the production values of the Minnesota one are better than the HOT HOT HOT (omg) one. I can't believe someone actually made that movie, watched the finished product, and said, "Yeah, it's great, let's go with it!" It's like something off of SNL.

6. this blog covers it well

7. ASU is HOT HOT HOT.

"If you don’t believe it now, you definitely won’t after watching the video." :rofl:

8. Speaking as somone who is taking a corporate video class...

The one from Appalaichain state is downright hideous. That video is not even high school quality.

The second one is a flash site that had so much potential, but seriously fell falt on its face.

9. The sad thing is Appalachian is not a bad school for a small one .

My Grandfather used to teach there. Boone, NC is a beautiful place and the people are very friendly. My family always enjoyed the time we spent there. That add does nothing but hurt the school.

10. ASU is good for a bunch of jackbooted Bible floppin' fucking moron thugs.

It's the same kind of production values and language-usage-style they're used to in their Jesus-absent churches: you know, devoid of substance, artistry, nuance, or creativity.

11. really?

i heard it was a bunch of stoners more interested in "mind-crashing weed" than anything else....

[Rabrrrrrr]

12. Crd, I left out a word - it should have read "ASU's *ad* is pretty good..."

I didn't mean the school itself necessarily.

13. I never knew there was a state called Appalachian

Is this some 51st state that no one knows about?
Where the hell is it?
