#freefortnite brought me here

talking about 1984 in the year 1984 IRONIC XD the whole commercial is an obvious reference to the book of the same number in the title.

Is it just me or does this "Big Brother" look like Judge Doom from _Who Framed Roger Rabbit_ ?

Reinterpreted in Inside Out 2

It's been 40 years already???

Fun fact: the guy who plays big brother was one of the first people to voice a dalek in doctor who

Actually, this wasn't the day it first aired. It was the day it first aired nationally, but the ad had been shown over a month earlier during late night in a local market in Idaho, as it needed to be broadcast in 1983 if it was to be included in consideration for 1983 advertising awards. The obscure location and time slot was chosen so that the ad remained essentially unseen and a big surprise.

On this day 40 years ago everything changed

What day did this "Super Bowl" game aired again?

Wow - I lived through this historic moment and just now discovered it almost 40 years later. I was a 9 year old kid who lived in the California Bay Area where the Raiders were popular. I was a Dallas Cowboys fan and hated the Washington Redskins (my dad’s influence). I doubt I was watching and I doubt my dad even noticed. He did buy an apple computer the next year. Just amazing how 1984 came and went. We had no idea how dystopian things would become

Hey, we were watching that!

Just jaw-dropping. Could you imagine anybody doing a commercial as creative and powerful as that today? That looked more like a clip from an Oscar-winning movie than from a tech commercial. "I don't know what a "Macintosh" is, but I want to find out!" would be my reaction if I saw this back then. Today it's just, "Ugh, disgusting ads, fast-forward through them or block them!"

This wasn't a computer ad; because Apple was never about a computer; Apple was about a movement far beyond a computer; the enduring brands have always been about a movement. Big or small - your business has to be about something bigger than the product or service, or you won't finish the race...

Oh yeah 1984 wont be like 1984. guess what, 2023 won’t be like 2023 🤣 with all these smart devices and all quality artificial intelligence and technology.

tf is happening there

The two note alarm sound was actually used by the director of the commercial Ridley Scott in Blade Runner at the Tyrrell Corporation. He reused the track. Pretty cool.

Funny how Apple became the very thing this ad was promoting against.

"On January 24, Apple Computer will turn you into a boy kisser..."

This must have weirded the fuck out of that crowd!

*'WE DON'T NEED NO EDUCATION'*

Watching this after the reference in Seth Meyers Popsicle Schtick segment, as a non American born after 84 who had no idea this existed

Apple was right and wrong, it was more subtle, we are slowly inching closer to 1984 style dystopia.

But 2022 looks like 1984 and the guy on the screen like Klaus Schwab. Apple needs to come up with new ideas and quick!

"It won't be like 1984"...until 2020 and following, when Klaus Schwab on the big screen comes back and most people are willing to act like zombies again.

Does anyone else see this and think. Andrew tate. Lmao its true though, he got adin to shave his head and now has him leading impressionable youth to shave their heads for power i guess… idk what the point is but a cult usually has you shave your head as its apart of getting rid of whats tying you to the past.

Jobs could well still be alive. WH or not Apple hardware is faulty shit because Foxconn build it. And they are terrible developers. They change shit on people all the same forcing people to have to pay to keep upgrading software for one. I think Microsoft has been hostile taken over and trust them more than Apple right now. They were the first to implement industry standard hardware security key "digital ID" where Apple demand hijackable SMS to protect logins.

They were telling you what they planned on doing to you in the future.

........FUCK YEAH!!!

apple suck

A brilliant commercial, arguably the greatest of all time.

Sad what's becoming of this company what with its support of the Chinese Communist Party.

Apple stock gonna tank for standing with Red China. Iran There's a likely anti-trust suit brewing for Apple. Top politicians are calling out Apple for colluding with Iran and Red China keep free speech down in all platforms. Apple became what it said it'd fight.

Looking back on it today, it's pretty black pilling to see Apple go the same Orwellian route it once raged against...

Anya Major also played Nikita in the 1985 Elton John video of the same name.

Its ironic because 40 years later, it’s more 1984 than we ever imagined!

By the time of the Apple commercial of the 84 super bowl I and most of my friends were to drunk to remember anything after the 3rd quarter for gods truth about that but hung over next day”we’ll I said it was a great commercial….lmao🎉😢😢😢

The commercial aged very well…..lol but I didn’t

Even in Futurama there was a parody scene.

Nice, I was still swimming in a ball sack.

My god the irony, Apple literally is 1984. Their real accomplishment, is making you think that they weren't one of the ones responsible for the thing they wanted you to not be.

I watched it for my entrepreneurship class, a blast

Aged like milk considering how Apple acts these days lol

Twice paid a tribute to this ad in their "Talk and talk" MV :3 Chaeyoung said this in their MV reaction Nayeon (and kinda Chaeyoung) had done the scene in the last chorus

im here because of Twice's Talk that Talk MV🥰🥰🥰

Minecraft players rn:

Now look at what they have done with sports. Those they promote. Now look at what they've done with computers. Go and ogle it for yourself. Victimized young white girls in order to sell computers and phones. No, you have not broken big brother, you have become a victim to it. The sports, the races, the pornography, the immorality, the subversion of our culture and society and morals. The computer has not freed us, it has been used as a weapon to destroy us, sports as well is a distraction and weapon to corrupt our society. Who is on the screen and what do they show and what do they say? Lies, manipulation, propaganda, subversion. Genocide. Now a backlash, a revolution, a correction, a protection, severe, severe.

2022 is just like 1984, thanks steve hope your frying in HELL
