The only crime about this clip is it's only 6 minutes long. Amazing company culture they have developed at Pixar.

Best editing drives best spot.

Great copy. Great shots. Great editing. And Marshall Mathers has great delivery too.

Big risk. Really paid off.

How many times can you say one TV spot made you rethink an entire brand?

Greenlight - 2011 Search Predictions

Polarizing? Good.

From a Fast Company article about the advent of the Livestrong campaign:

"Jones and Milkshake kept brainstorming: Defy cancer. Living forward. A strong life. Finally, they arrived at Live Strong, which became Livestrong. It sounded organic, a natural extension of Armstrong. The only catch? As much as some survivors felt empowered by the name (to the point of getting Livestrong tattoos), others in the focus groups disliked it. "You cannot tell someone diagnosed with cancer to live strong," one survivor insisted. "That's obnoxious."

"One thing I've learned," Jones told Ulman and his staff, "is that when things are polarizing, it's right."

Agreed.
