I've never really been a person who wants to buy the latest gadget when it just came out, but the Kindle Fire might be some I'd like to buy.....or an iPad. Either way, the Kindle Fire commercial is nice to watch and the one that Amazon is selling is only $199. To me, that price isn't too shabby because I believe it's lower then what a Kindle usually is. I don't know alot about Kindles other then they allow you to read a book from anywhere without the hassle of lugging around several books at once.
The Commercial itself is talking about the Kindle in a way it's truly revolutionary and how it's like fire, hence the name "Kindle Fire." The commercial also has a quote from Voltaire about books being like fire, so it's symbolic for Kindle to have that quote go along with the ad.
It even showed a few posters for movies that have been recently released on DVD and Blu-Ray on the Kindle, so it's kind of like an iPod but instead of music it has books and can only have movies.....and books.
I liked the commercial, but it doesn't make me wanna buy one that much, although I'll buy an iPad maybe. I like my iPod so I'll go for an iPad instead of a Kindle and it's not like I have anything againist these Kindles, I just like to stick to certain products that have kept me happy.
The Kindle seems to reflect how society seems to be constantly on the move and is so immersed in electronics so people don't have or make enough time for reading a book with paper pages. So the Kindle allows people to read, carry lots of books with little weight, and be able to read a book or watch a movie on the go. Personally, I'll always prefer the smell and feel of a regular book instead of something that looks like an oversized iPod.
Obviously there were no stereotypes because it was a commercial for Amazon's Kindle Fire, so it was pretty much focused on the Kindle itself and it barely showed any people in it.
The only part of a person you can see is a hand and every other person is a picture, but pretty much all commercials for these kinds of things have mostly a human hand and barely any moving people but there are some exceptions I suppose.
Overall, this commercial was interesting, short, and it didn't give me alot to talk about sadly but I did like the quote and the symbolic connection between the Kindle and the quote.
