Josh and Zim own the 48th largest auto mall in San Diego but aspire to be number one, a lofty position held by National City Mile of Cars. To show you how far they have to go to reach their goal, Josh and Zim have “41 feet of cars” by comparison–so much for their selection of vehicles.
But Josh comes up with a solution in this :15 titled “Mirrors”–part of the National City Mile of Cars “41 Feet of Cars” campaign. We see Josh holding several rear view side mirrors. As he moves them about, reflecting the few cars he has in the background, he gives himself the illusion that there are rows and rows of automobiles behind him.
“Have you slept?” asks his partner Zim in disbelief.
Unperturbed, Josh goes on a delusional rant. “Miles of cars, I can see ’em,” he declares.
The spot ends with a pan of the expansive lot on which resides the National City Mile of Cars dealership, which is “number one for a reason.”
Chad Einbinder of Attack Ads, Marina del Rey, Calif., directed “Mirrors” for agency NYCA, Encinitas, Calif.
The NYCA creative ensemble consisted of creative director Michael Mark, associate creative directors Travis Graham and Dave Huerta, writer John Benedict, art director Ian Jensen and producer Annie Pearson.

Early in arguments that lasted more than two and a half hours, Chief Justice John Roberts identified his main concern: TikTok's ownership by China-based ByteDance and the parent company's requirement to cooperate with the Chinese government's intelligence operations.
If left in place, the law passed by bipartisan majorities in Congress and signed by President Joe Biden in April will require TikTok to "go dark" on Jan. 19, lawyer Noel Francisco told the justices on behalf of TikTok.
At the very least, Francisco urged, the justices should enter a temporary pause that would allow TikTok to keep operating. "We might be in a different world again" after President-elect Donald Trump takes office on Jan. 20. Trump, who has 14.7 million followers on TikTok, also has called for the deadline to be pushed back to give him time to negotiate a "political resolution." Francisco served as Trump's solicitor general in his first presidential term.
But it was not clear whether any justices would choose such a course. And only Justice Neil Gorsuch sounded like he would side with TikTok to find that the ban violates the Constitution.
Gorsuch labeled arguments advanced by the Biden administration' in defense of the law a... Read More
