And for some more trivia, the guy doing some of the dancing behind the Gene Kelly mask, is David Elsewhere...

Truly horrendous grammar as well.

[lotuslad]

Nothing wrong with 'truely'. It's just the archaic spelling And surely that's spelling, not grammar

Ive been waiting for someone to post about this, i think its fantastic

To me this is yet another example of VW missing the point in a spectacular way. First we had a bunch of German engineers getting fat and middle aged, just like the Golf. Now they're saying the new GTI is a badly butchered parody of the original - a modern day Hollywood 're-imagining' of one of the greats, directed by McG for the MTV generation.

No, it's more than that: it's yet another example of the cultural bankruptcy of our society - why create when you can copy?

[lotuslad]

Got you talking about VW though, didn't it

Theres two, I didnt like Kelly being cut up for a poxy car ad either. The cultural bankruptcy comment was spot on. Those who dont care one way or the other prove the point very well.
