GOLFFRR · 05-17-2023, 01:28 PM

thats pretty cool post!

BimmerXdrive · 05-17-2023, 01:32 PM

I’m still in disbelief everytime I see this 7 series. Such a sad time.

VirtualGuitars · 05-17-2023, 01:51 PM

That’s 8 minutes of my life that I’ll never get back.

Bimmerfun82 · 05-17-2023, 03:14 PM

Well done, but the magic of the original drive short films was they didn’t feel like advertising. Showing off the gimmicks of the car, meh.

KevinM · 05-18-2023, 01:33 AM

I could poke holes, but why?

. Slick advertising at its best; I enjoyed it. I do hope that in real life customers' smart phones sync to the car's infotainment system!

These BMW films are getting to be a tired concept… all downhill since Madonna got ejected on the red carpet.

I enjoyed the film (my wife did too) but couldn't escape the felling that I'd seen the theme before. It might bring in a new audience who isn't familiar with the previous films. If that's the case, it'll work for BMW.

Mani59 · 05-19-2023, 03:02 AM

Here is the making of "The Calm".

This film was a lot of fun, and definitely felt more feature-centric than the previous films. Big Pom fan, it’s great seeing her working with BMW.

That film was really fun... no one has mentioned the references to "Pulp Fiction" yet... the number Plate (Mia Wallace), the glowing suitcase with invisible content, the complete style of the shortmovie.

I was entertained :-)
