Author Topic: What happened to Scions ads?: The fall  (Read 3015 times)

You stupid kids will not remember the awesome ads that Scion had put out. If you dummies don't remember what I'm talking about, Scion is the car brand that Toyota made to appeal to the fellow kids because Toyota owners are old forgets. Scion had sadly shut down in 2016 (2 years after the political correctness uprising of 2014) because stupid zoomers are too busy paying their frickin' college debts. But one thing that made Scion an awesome piece of epicness is that their ads are frickin' sweet. They show actual depictions of the people (us car enthusiasts) and even when they didn't focus on car modifications, they had brilliant, hilarious, twisted, forgeted up pieces of awesome. Tho this epic stuff only lasted for a short while. Scion's cool ads had appeared in the 2000s to early 2010s. When the political correctness uprising of 2014 hit, Scion ads (and almost everything in general) had started to fall downhill. Gone are the days of bad ass tuners and funny/surreal moments. Now we just got a bunch of normie hipsters/chads who don't even customize their cars and just go to things like those camp fires with the obnoxious ukulele music. Like this stupid ass ad (Tho I must admit the glowing badges are cool) with their stupid signing voices and crap. And this is what they do to celebrate their 10th anniversary in this commercial https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jjf714B0Ob4. Instead of celebrating the tuners that had made the Scion brand great they celebrated the stupid normie chads. Tho I'll admit the version of the Scion jingle at the end at 0:28 is awesome.

Now compare that to it's old commercials and ads like this one. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xX_4ssbqjvA
Sure, the modifications haven't aged well nowadays but at least it appealed to the car enthusiasts and has some awesome Asian inspired designs. And also others like this one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5KwEfziV4As which shows you don't need stupid Chads and meme zoomer stuff to be awesome, just let the bad ass tuners do the rest.


Tho one of my favorites is this one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pY2Haja1xps. Because it shows the awesomeness that the tC can bring you if you modify it. Bad ass high speed driving, FWD drifting, and epic music. It's just like the intro for Need for Speed Underground and that is what makes it so cool. Also I may add that the music in Scion commercials is so great, that people kept asking them what the song is and demanded for an CD album for the songs. Which sadly they didn't make because nothing good happens anymore.

Tho when they are not doing cool commercials for tuners. They make some cool surreal commercials like this one where these guys become blockheads in this weird creepy hospital lab thing (Ironic given that this is Blockland) and I love the twisted atmosphere of it. As I like stuff like that one Audi spider commercial and the impact time sounds in Burnout.
Woah check out his new head here at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JpQ0ygDlC8k

I also like the how Scion even has the balls to destroy one of their xBs in this awesome commercial with some rose petal girl voice thing and showing a surreal backround with just a wrecking ball and two Scion xBs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o2x5zKvcs-A showing the love it loathe it nature of the xB.

 Have you ever seen a car company destroy their car in a commercial before? Scion has the balls to do that. Also the sheeple commercial is an pretty great one too. Telling people with differences and individuals like car enthusiasts to rise up against the normies and sheeple. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Set1KKd6HKM and also to piss of stupid Christians that don't know that Atheism is the best.

So bassicly another reason why I think that the Scion ads have gone downhill is that they are too focused on using celebrities instead of encouraging people to be exceptional and to become an icon. Like in this ad https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hjxYlZWG8W0


Or I don't know. Maybe I just miss Scion and the memories when it just came into Canada and those paper shapers looked awesome and the iQ appeared in Motorstorm RC. (Which is weird cuz they're are no licensed cars in the Motorstorm world) That was when I was an happy kid, now I'm just miserable in a this frozen wasteland of mediocrity. I miss the 2000s and early 2010s before the libtards ruined everything.

So anyways do you agree with me? What is your favourite Scion car/ad?

why did you make this
Because I want to voice my opinion. They don't call it the off-topic forums for nothing.

Do you think that Scion ads got worse. Or are they the same? Or are they better? You choose.
