The new Victorias Secret commercial directed by Michael Bay has finally arrived (see it here), and it’s very much like a regular Victorias Secret commercial, except more Michael Bay-ey. Get out your checklist:
– Shot of a character very far away, walking toward the camera but blurred as heat rises up from the road? Damn right.
– Hero shot from below, framing the character with a blue sky behind them? You know it!
– Incoherent action? From start to finish my friends.
– Thoughtful characters? Not a one.
– Explosions? Why wouldn’t there be!
There’s no sassy black character who’s had it with all your motherfuckin bullshit or an elderly Asian character who has no reaction to the insane action going on just a few feet behind him, but why would Bay give that away for free when people will pay 12 dollars for it.
