Well produced, catchy. Usually better than the programs they’re interrupting. Love Steve.

I loved how he got his fingers caught when Armstrong pulled the lever back. Fantastic.

THIS was (literally?) from another world , certainly another level. Recognised the sublime Mr Buscemi and demuted. What joy. An ad that makes you laugh out loud and nails multi messages with laser like accuracy. Devastatingly clever. By a million miles Telstra’s best ever ad – keep the series coming and congrats to the creatives and Buscemi for outstanding work.

If Telstra put as much effort into basic customer service or integrating their tech infrastructure to support a usable customer experience, that would actually be interesting.

If you want to see black comedy wstch him in the movie FARGO ,or as a gangster/politician in BOARDWALK EMPIRE.

Telstra shareholders? It must have cost a fortune.

It’s eagles coming in saving the banking card and aliens in space. Why don’t they ever show us what they actually do all this is smoke and mirrors so we believe they do something that they cannot ever quantitate.

I don’t know if I believe, but it shows they understand our main concerns, and that sound when they get blocked, I hope scammers hear that and sirens.

If Telstra’s anti-spamming capabilities are so incredible, how come there is an extensive long running and ongoing scamming campaign happening on the Telstra bigpond email system? It’s an email scam on the Telstra bigpond email system attacking users of that system with emails sent within that system.

A great creative work of true fiction.

And, I believe the ad really gets the message over. Looking forward to any follow on. Being a Sci-Fi fan, it really caught my eye.

I genuinely thought a movie was playing and was hooked from the outset. Laughed my head off. Congrats great ad.

His comic timing and presence gives the add so much more value. WELL DONE!
