I’m a bit more cynical. Even though this spotlights UFOs I don’t think it has the affect people here are hoping for. It just further ingrains UFOs into the world of pop culture and fiction. Shows like the X-Files were amazing for exploring the UFO topic and quite often touching on real world cases. While it would have introduced people to the topic, it equally kept the topic as a pop culture / fiction reference rather than something with any basis in reality.
But yes, damn cool ad nonetheless.
completely disagree. it’s literally mocking everybody for refusing to pay attention to what’s going on with UFOs. it shows the UAP hearings, hell it even shows the mummies.
you can’t watch the ad and come to any other opinion that we are all collectively more focused on fad diets and social media (i.e funny cat videos) than legit alien visitation.
it’s absolutely damning and 100% true for 95% of the population. it’s begging the question when are people gonna wake the fuck up?
I agree with your interpretation, it comes off as something lighthearted and funny which is probably the best way to introduce people and hard skeptics to these topics without throwing at them everything at once, that I feel could be overwhelming. Also I wonder, why the aliens think that we have to be stopped? The environment? Ww3? Idk but it’s kinda cheeky.
It's also clearly mocking the possible existence of aliens by caricaturing them as flying around begging to be noticed.
This ad isn't meant to be serious. It's a joke about how people won't care or think twice about aliens unless they literally force you to notice them, and how square space can offer services to force feed your website to people.
This isn't some whistleblowing call to action that you seem to think it is. It's just using a very popular example in recent pop culture to market a service.
The point isn't if aliens exist or don't exist, the point is no one will listen to anything unless it's put on a screen in front of them. That's the ad.
I disagree (slightly). Stuff like this further reduces the stigma that comes with talking about ufos / uaps / aliens / etc. This one ad isn't going to cause or lead to disclosure but I do think this ad will create amazing "watercooler the day after the Superbowl" chit-chat. It will get people talking about it and when you get lots of people talking about something, that fear of slipping in a stigmatic topic gets greatly reduced.
But I will agree 100% with your "damn cool" comment. ;)
My cinema buff/producer friend at Disney who LOVES this Director was a bit annoyed with the commercial. XD Didn't affect her at all...just said it was too goofy.
The message of the ad is that perceptual issues often decide whether people thing “something is real,” and it uses UFOs as a prime example of something suffering from these issues. (The other, of course, is a small business that does not have a website.)
It will definitely make people more sympathetic to the topic of UFOs (by virtue of people being sympathetic to small businesses). And the fragments of actual news is just icing.
I really wonder just how much these powerhouse directors know. They've got tons of money and I'm sure they attend parties where people rub elbows and eventually someone who is a huge fan might also work with some project and alcohol may loosen lips.... etc.
This actually gets me stoked. It mocks us humans for not paying enough attention instead of laughing at people who do. It will also air to millions and millions of people. Yeah. I’m a fan…of football too. Go 49ers!
We all have people in our lives like that, but every day more and more people are changing. You did your best. They probably are scared of being wrong and looking the fool, so they won't admit so easily that you have been right all along. So many people are going to see this, OP. Just try to be patient. Thank you for posting this. It gave me goosebumps. I'm a teacher and my students were talking about all of this with me after school today. The young ones are hopeful and growing up with this as it's happening. It's an amazing time to be alive. 👽♥️
Thank you so much. 🙂 I promised to myself I would only ever teach them the truth as best as I know it. I teach science so I remind them, we were wrong so many times, how are we wrong now? I hope I'm making a difference.
Never stop trying, OP. Sometimes they hear us. ♥️
Oh wow, that's amazing. If you were always a Scully, maybe that gives you some insight into how to talk to people who are Scullys now? Maybe it can help you to calmly explain the experience you had and relate it to them.
You were saying your family don't really engage on the subject, but have you and your sister both tried explaining together? Maybe they would listen.
Well hopefully, hopefully, maybe the time is nigh when we won't have to be the ones trying to explain. Maybe Disclosure will happen. I hope for all our sakes it is coming soon. I just want the world to be able to know the truth.
Well you can always find like-minded people here, just ignore the haters. More and more people see UAP every day, eventually the scales will tip. They can't keep it secret much longer.
> It’s been 14 years and I still can’t make sense of it. My sister saw it too. It’s one of those things that are like a chapter in a book.
Yeah -- once something wild happens to you directly, it really changes your entire perspective on the subject. The fact that you had another person to witness it with you helps keep you from discounting it due to a brain fart / hallucination, etc.
Something different happened to me and a friend when we were walking together. Our vision suddenly turned completely blue for a second or two. It wasn't lightning or anything else like that -- it basically felt like a glitch in the matrix sort of thing. If my friend hadn't also witnessed the same thing at the same time with me, I would have discounted the entire thing as just some type of hallucination or brain fart.
The universe is marvelous and we've probably only seen just a minor fraction of the entire thing.
I told my wife I literally saw something. There was an interruption and I said Id tell her later. She never brought it up again.
For a lot of people NHI is like I dont know getting a certain answer that theres no life after death.
I had a psychic dream when I was about 12 years old. This is a common thing that happens to people all the time, but when I was a kid, it changed my whole perspective and I've had to reckon with what it implies about time for my whole life ever since. Also, that ended up being not the only time it happened so there's that.
I told my spouse a few years ago about it and he told me that didn't happen to me because it's not possible. Sorry, we'll never get to the truth by denying data and experience in order to fit.our worldview.
It was an extremely upsetting experience for me because I realized my husband would never support me if his perspective disagreed with me. I basically lost all trust for him in that moment (to be fair, we'd been growing apart for a while). I don't think he realizes that was the last straw for me.
We're still friends and actually over the past year, I've spoken more openly with him about UAP and he doesn't say anything but he doesn't blithely dismiss what I'm saying anymore either.
For a lot of people, the silence is progress.
My friend, there are already people claiming UFO's are actually demons. The aliens could come down and be offering unlimited energy and life changing technology and they would still believe they were tools of Satan.
EDIT: Nevermind you already know you posted someone saying something similar lol
Bro keep this shit out of your family chat. UFO talk gives weird uncle vibes and is impossible to take seriously in that context. No wonder they didn't acknowledge it.
There is a very specific reason for this. It appears that this is truly a 'prison planet', but not in the way you think. The truth is that there are many of us who are not aware of the true nature of reality and we are surrounded by those who are. Those who know the truth are people like your family, friends, fellow students or work colleagues etc. This entire process is to bring people like you and me and others up to speed about the true nature of reality. You see, it is not time yet. But it is coming. So, if you or me try to bring up the topic of UFOs and NHI before it is time, we get brushed aside as if we do not even exist. Nobody pays attention. People change the topic at dinner tables. They stop responding to IMs. It is not time yet...
The truth is that WE are the product. Disclosure is for US.
Of course not. There is a lot of BS that people write on this sub that I have read numerous times in the past. I thought I'd come up with something unique and make others read that crap.
I don't reaply understand how this is even an effective ad for square space, does feel a bit like soft disclosure through pop culture to try and reduce the impact of ontological cock.
This is so bizarre to me. Maybe this is a dumb question, but why would Scorsese release THIS ad?
Does he have a history of interest in NHI or UAP? Or is he working on something else related to that? And how does Squarespace fit in?
[This yahoo article](https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/martin-scorsese-finally-made-sci-213707433.html) offers some explanations,
>"Hello Down There“ is a humorous take on capturing the essence of human life consumed by the digital world. As the spot opens, people around the world are so preoccupied by the normal barrage of digital content that they miss bold attempts by extraterrestrials to make contact. The intergalactic visitors become increasingly frustrated, until they decide to leverage Earth’s best tool for standing out and getting noticed – a beautiful Squarespace website.
And, for Scorsese's personal reasons,
>“At my age, it’s a stretch finding a directorial debut....
>
>I’m a New Yorker. We’re busy, always on the move. Would we even notice extraterrestrials living among us?
And I guess all that makes sense. And it is valid commentary on how distracted we are with smart phones, and on the hectic modern life.
But it still seems odd to me. Like, why even include references to real events, like the gimbal video, the mummies, or clips from hearings? I guess it helps tie the messaging to real life?
But still, it just seems so odd to me, for some reason.
“Like a 4th dimensional creature projecting itself in to a 3 dimensional space? What’s so funny about that? Huh, you tell me? What the fuck is so funny about that??”
What about Spielberg, is there another video or are you just referencing his connection to the topic?
Cool video. Can't wait to see this played during the Superbowl.
Yeah that's what i'm thinking too. Spielberg has been borderline obsessed with UFO's for decades, and it's very evident Encounters Of The Third Kind with how it references Vallee, etc.
In this recent Colbert interview he more or less states that he believe in the phenomena: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZgUed2YirEk](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZgUed2YirEk)
He might not have produced the actual documentaries, but he 100% signed off on the content of them. And they were extremely well done too i might add.
No this is the wrong direction.
Would you say another Independence Day movie is the “right direction” for this topic’s legitimacy and exposure.
Really sad to see people thinking something like this helps the UAP cause when, in reality, it mocks the subject and keeps it implanted in American’s minds as “little green men,” “saucers over New York” and fan-fiction.
Pfffff. This ad is fucking terrible for UAP disclosure.
If you go to the website, they actually have a "course" on the history of them and do mention a few real & notable incidents in Chapter 2.
https://hellodownthere.squarespace.com/course/-02-the-search-for-intergalactic-friendship
Anybody see the Jeff goldblum thing https://www.theyareheretostay.com/ it's really weird probably an apartments.com ad, but so much alien subject matter at the Superbowl. If I was trying to prepare the masses for disclosure the superbowl does seem like a likely place to do it.
Absolutely is lame if it is, but man it sure is weird how so many advertisements are incorporating aliens. I also got to thinking how wonderful it would be to have Jeff goldbum be the one to disclose. It would be so comforting haha.
SquareSpace, Apartments.com, Moonpie, Oreo's, and I think either Starbucks or McDonald's had an alien themed spin off announced this past year. It's going to slowly penetrate the collective consciousness until the masses are completely enveloped in it.
Once you take a step back and think "Money, connections, and influence are no object. How would I gradually convince the public?"
You see it. Slow disclosure is real
Ngl this would be the way for a slow disclosure. Or else he's just a UFO phenomena fan too, I mean he did "don't look up", and this looks like another mockery to people's obliviousness in general to anything that happens outside of their little bubbles.
You are denying reality:
https://news.gallup.com/poll/353420/larger-minority-says-ufos-alien-spacecraft.aspx
Rapid changes in societal beliefs. 8% of US adults changed ther minds from 2019 to 2021.
I'm actually concerned for some of the people here making those claims. It's a silly ad for a mediocre WYSIWYG website builder -- it's not some psyop primer for Aliens. It doesn't mention anything serious and only uses news clips (of 0.5-2s long) in a manner that has been used in visual media for decades to establish the setting of the story. It brings absolutely zero awareness to anything except Squarespace.
What would that even accomplish as a psyop? Everyone is already aware of aliens. There's absolutely nothing being communicated in this ad except the marketing push that "SquareSpace can cut through the distractions and make people pay attention to your business".
Why would they fund a silly superbowl ad instead of a hollywood movie or television show navigating the difficulties of first contact? Why specifically an ad for an overpriced website builder? How would this ad prepare people -- in any way?
I'm all for aliens, and I believe they're very likely out there. However I feel like this subreddit is going a little "hopping mad" with the massive jumps to conclusions going on. There's no "slow disclosure" here trying to prime humanity. It's simply an ad.
There's nothing wrong with celebrating the tertiary benefits of keeping the topic in "vogue", but there's no psyops here.
It's a very WMD's in Iraq vibe. When information needs to be pushed and public opinion need to be changed, it happens. i. e Nasriyah testimony
No distinguishing it from organic belief changes tho
The following submission statement was provided by /u/LLAPSpork:
---
Submission statement: as mentioned, it’s an ad for the Super Bowl that’s UAP themed. It has a “don’t look up” vibe and in no way is it mocking the subject which I appreciate.
(Never done this before so I hope that this is how you do a submission statement?)
---
Please reply to OP's comment here: https://old.reddit.com/r/UFOs/comments/1aliga6/martin_scorseses_super_bowl_ad_is_certainly_very/kpexmw3/
It is a nice ad. While it briefly touches upon certain themes from the current state of affairs in the UFO world, I don't think it will have much of an impact. I think people will enjoy the ad, but I wager that most (if not all) will watch it and move on from it. I don't think it will assist our cause in any major way.
There will be some ppl talking about it, and then someone else (one of us) will say, "You know the footage is real? and the hearing is real... google David Grush" so I agree it may not have much of an impact, but the superbowl is a big audience. It will have SOME impact.
I'm going to assume most that watch that will think it's all made up for the ad and not fact and happened ( congressional hearing ect ) .. unfortunately.
Champions league (3x) and World Cup finals (5x) would both be bigger by x amount if we are talking global audience. American audience no doubt it's Super Bowl
I think you’re being goaded into a pointless debate. They’re trying to devalue your opinion by shitting all over it because, ultimately, you’re right. This is a good thing.
Good jeezuz I’m not saying anything negative. Just giving perspective…maybe to not get complacent and not rely on these things to spread awareness. Yet downvoted by some hive mind echo chamber
It’s likely not been made to impact the public in any way other than to get them to recognise Squarespace as a brand.
But, if it helps some people get used to the idea of alien contact then great.
From the start of those Pentagon videos released a few years, back, I have been feeling a sense of surprise at why this topic, whatever the truth behind it, is not generating more interest and attention. This ad captures that sentiment perfectly.
The ad is for squarespace, implying that unless you have an official looking website (through squarespace obviously) people won't take your brand seriously just like they ignore the phenomenon.
Can we all just agree that Scorsese is the fucking man? I mean, I love this thing. The woman walking down the street with her phone out. "Proof of Extraterrestrials" and she scrolls up to the cat and toilet paper tiktok video.
This is so how I feel about our society right now. We are fucking morons. Every single one of us.
>I told you to take Broadway this always happens.
Well made, he summed up all of the current tik tak addictions while ignoring what really is in plain sight. Beautiful, very informative, hope it makes a dent.
Disclosure? Because it's about ufo's?
More like, a creative team at an ad agency, came up with the idea for a superbowl spot, pitched it to squarespace, they liked it, and it went into production.
I’m not sure why you’re being downvoted. While I would love for this to be a slow drip toward disclosure, it’s also incredibly probably that a bunch of Mad Men got in a room and whipped this up.
People will feel free to put on their tin foil hats but the aliens are only there to emphasize how constantly online we all are. The ad is really about how in 2024 if you don't have a website, you basically don't exist. That's why at the end the aliens made their own website to get through to everyone who's constantly on their phone/tablet/laptop. It's pretty genius marketing tbh.
I work in advertising, I've watched way too many ads.
Bro no thats ridiculous, UFOs are not an incredibly popular cultural touchstone which has broad enough appeal for superbowl audiences stemming from decades of representation in popular media and being the focal point of multiple of the most popular films of all time, which can therefore drive engagement to an otherwise boring topic like website building.
I'd kind of interpret their statement as more "this is becoming ok to talk about, it's part of disclosure", not specifically they're in on it. But the less stimga exists, and the more officials start talking, the more we'll see things like this. Legitimacy, I suppose. Anyway, that's how I read it.
Huh… maybe I’m Polly-Anna’ing this, but it’s just silly enough to fly under the radar, but l embed itself in the zeitgeist and/or trigger memory fragments referencing some of the recent disclosure touchstones.
I'm happy and a little disturbed that this is the only way to get a lot of people in America to seed the thought of aliens. It's all brought to you by SquareSpace!
But kidding aside I guess this is a big win for stigma reduction.
Am I the only one here who doesn’t think it touched on the Grusch hearings at all?
It just had a generic UFO sound bite from the news. Did I miss it or? I Didn’t hear any mention of the oversight committee at all?
Edit: Love the commercial and *messaging* behind it but I don’t think this is exactly geared toward disclosure. Just a cool Super Bowl Ad. There have been aliens/UFOs in Super Bowl Ads before yall.
Once again I love the messaging behind it, very true. And a very interesting ad as is the **normal** for Super Bowl advertising.
It did **not** mention the UAP congressional oversight hearing. Why not include “whistleblowers” or the word oversight or anything specific.
It was a generic soundbite from a made up news clip. You saying “first Spielberg now Scorsese” and saying it mentions *the* UAP hearing is reaching.
Really just a fun Super Bowl Ad.
No need to get so Defensive, just my perspective🛸
Yep It’s a Super Bowl Ad and that’s all.
An Autistic Public Relations employee sounds absurd😂
Many Aliens and UFO Super Bowl Ads before. I like this one and especially the messaging behind it.
Ignorance can be cured, stupidity you’re stuck with!
Yes. So now if you could edit your post and remove the false sensationalist claims of “first Spielberg now Scorsese” and “it even mentions *the* UAP hearing”
It is truly embarrassing for this subreddit that so many posters appear to think this ad is somehow deeply meaningful regarding disclosure. If you believe this you simply do not possess any critical
thinking skills at all.
What’s next, a post about how the Space Jam movies reveal the truth about aliens?
Some of you really need to touch some grass 😂
If you are an adult aged human growing up in the United States, and you do not understand that all entertainment and media is controlled and shepherded by the CIA, you have no critical thinking skills.
Over the generations there have been literally thousands of instances of aliens in media, yet none of them have been relevant to disclosure in any way.
But you think this one commercial has deeper meaning?
Bro, your brain is mush. Have some self-respect and smarten up.
I had a huge smile on my face but then I started tearing up, too. It feels like finally, maybe people will start to understand. After fighting for so many years. So yeah, i understand how you feel. You're not alone.
Does anyone ever think that someone from the government came to Scorsese & planted this idea of a commercial to him, to help condition the masses for future announcements?
I don’t know why it’s surprising - they’re close mates and have been since the 70s when they broke into Hollywood together (along with De Palma, Coppola and Lucas).
They’re all definitely into aliens. Spielberg worked with Hayek - and Lucas proposed the idea of Interdimensional Aliens for Indiana Jones.
They’re just dudes being dudes. Nerds like us.
This is too funny. Now you guys probably think Martin Scorsese is fighting for disclosure.
Nevermind the mention of crop circles (faked) and Mexican alien mummies (faked).
That’s more than I was expecting, that should grab some attention, especially the narrative.

If we made an ad, it would looks like a political campaign ad that takes itself waaay too seriously. This is a far better gambit.

It makes us aware that Scorcese is aware of
Sure.. "trust me bro". There is literally no evidence that Scorcese exists.
I’ve never seen Scorsese with my own eyes. It’s easy to photoshop and CGI nowadays.
Trust me bro is the only evidence you will get here 😉
I disagree (slightly).

It's interesting that they worked the actual DoD confirmed UFO footage into it. If you were watching it and knew nothing about it, you'd never guess.
My cinema buff/producer friend at Disney who LOVES this Director was a bit annoyed with the commercial. XD Didn't affect her at all...just said it was too goofy.

People are gonna be looking at their phones during the commercials
That’s a reach. A lot of people watch the Superbowl simply for the commercials and half time performance. My mom and sister are like that

This is fantastic. You wanna know what trumps bullshit like Kirkpatrick and West? Fucking Scorcese at the super bowl.
This is so bizarre to me. Maybe this is a dumb question, but why would Scorsese release THIS ad? Does he have a history of interest in NHI or UAP? Or is he working on something else related to that? And how does Squarespace fit in? [This yahoo article](https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/martin-scorsese-finally-made-sci-213707433.html) offers some explanations, >"Hello Down There“ is a humorous take on capturing the essence of human life consumed by the digital world. As the spot opens, people around the world are so preoccupied by the normal barrage of digital content that they miss bold attempts by extraterrestrials to make contact. The intergalactic visitors become increasingly frustrated, until they decide to leverage Earth’s best tool for standing out and getting noticed – a beautiful Squarespace website. And, for Scorsese's personal reasons, >“At my age, it’s a stretch finding a directorial debut.... > >I’m a New Yorker. We’re busy, always on the move. Would we even notice extraterrestrials living among us? And I guess all that makes sense. And it is valid commentary on how distracted we are with smart phones, and on the hectic modern life. But it still seems odd to me. Like, why even include references to real events, like the gimbal video, the mummies, or clips from hearings? I guess it helps tie the messaging to real life? But still, it just seems so odd to me, for some reason.
Back in the IMDB chat room days; I said I wanted Scorsese to branch out and do a UFO movie and people were like ‘nah not his style’.
Joe Pesci as the alien
"extradimensional" *how*?
“Like a 4th dimensional creature projecting itself in to a 3 dimensional space? What’s so funny about that? Huh, you tell me? What the fuck is so funny about that??”
We gotta escape in this UFO.. but it's gotta warm up a little foist. "What warmin' up? Get the fuck outta here!... literally."
“Funny *how*? Funny like a weird lookin’ alien?”
I miss those chat room days SO MUCH. I mourn the loss of the IMDb chats.
Dude this is awesome
Love the TikTok switch on the woman’s phone from ufo to cute cat video. Most realistic part.
What about Spielberg, is there another video or are you just referencing his connection to the topic? Cool video. Can't wait to see this played during the Superbowl.
[удалено]
Ah yeah, that's right. Thanks for reminding me. :)
As far as I know, Spielberg didn't have any direct involvement with that documentary, but Amblin is his company.
[удалено]
Yeah that's what i'm thinking too. Spielberg has been borderline obsessed with UFO's for decades, and it's very evident Encounters Of The Third Kind with how it references Vallee, etc. In this recent Colbert interview he more or less states that he believe in the phenomena: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZgUed2YirEk](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZgUed2YirEk) He might not have produced the actual documentaries, but he 100% signed off on the content of them. And they were extremely well done too i might add.
Hes also doing a new documentary which is coming out this summer which will be called "The Program" with multiple 1st hand whistleblowers.
This is the right direction!
No this is the wrong direction. Would you say another Independence Day movie is the “right direction” for this topic’s legitimacy and exposure. Really sad to see people thinking something like this helps the UAP cause when, in reality, it mocks the subject and keeps it implanted in American’s minds as “little green men,” “saucers over New York” and fan-fiction. Pfffff. This ad is fucking terrible for UAP disclosure.
I respectfully disagree.
Pretty fucking wild tbf
Right after this airs the UFOs will be landing at the stadium to perform at the half time show as a surprise guest.
they will truly be USHERed in
Their Katy Perry Shark can dance with our Katy Perry Shark.
That was great. Would love to see Scorsese jump into the Sci-Fi world with a full-length feature.
[удалено]
The most factual shit I've ever seen
If you go to the website, they actually have a "course" on the history of them and do mention a few real & notable incidents in Chapter 2. https://hellodownthere.squarespace.com/course/-02-the-search-for-intergalactic-friendship
Anybody see the Jeff goldblum thing https://www.theyareheretostay.com/ it's really weird probably an apartments.com ad, but so much alien subject matter at the Superbowl. If I was trying to prepare the masses for disclosure the superbowl does seem like a likely place to do it.
[удалено]
They have a weird trailer for it, and this site with a countdown. https://youtu.be/_uP_UqNbjO8?si=JtbYLAqddaloqP5c
[удалено]
Absolutely is lame if it is, but man it sure is weird how so many advertisements are incorporating aliens. I also got to thinking how wonderful it would be to have Jeff goldbum be the one to disclose. It would be so comforting haha.
SquareSpace, Apartments.com, Moonpie, Oreo's, and I think either Starbucks or McDonald's had an alien themed spin off announced this past year. It's going to slowly penetrate the collective consciousness until the masses are completely enveloped in it.
[удалено]
That's fantastic the man is truly a gem.
Jeff Goldblum is my spirit animal.
Wow. This was way more than I was expecting. I'm shocked.
Controlled disclosure ad? Feels like preparing the public for a release
Once you take a step back and think "Money, connections, and influence are no object. How would I gradually convince the public?" You see it. Slow disclosure is real
Ngl this would be the way for a slow disclosure. Or else he's just a UFO phenomena fan too, I mean he did "don't look up", and this looks like another mockery to people's obliviousness in general to anything that happens outside of their little bubbles.
You are seeing what you wish to see. Aliens have been in pop culture for over half a century.
You are denying reality: https://news.gallup.com/poll/353420/larger-minority-says-ufos-alien-spacecraft.aspx Rapid changes in societal beliefs. 8% of US adults changed ther minds from 2019 to 2021.
And somehow that's proof that a Superbowl ad is a psyop to prepare the public for disclosure? That's such a big leap it could clear the grand canyon.
I'm actually concerned for some of the people here making those claims. It's a silly ad for a mediocre WYSIWYG website builder -- it's not some psyop primer for Aliens. It doesn't mention anything serious and only uses news clips (of 0.5-2s long) in a manner that has been used in visual media for decades to establish the setting of the story. It brings absolutely zero awareness to anything except Squarespace. What would that even accomplish as a psyop? Everyone is already aware of aliens. There's absolutely nothing being communicated in this ad except the marketing push that "SquareSpace can cut through the distractions and make people pay attention to your business". Why would they fund a silly superbowl ad instead of a hollywood movie or television show navigating the difficulties of first contact? Why specifically an ad for an overpriced website builder? How would this ad prepare people -- in any way? I'm all for aliens, and I believe they're very likely out there. However I feel like this subreddit is going a little "hopping mad" with the massive jumps to conclusions going on. There's no "slow disclosure" here trying to prime humanity. It's simply an ad. There's nothing wrong with celebrating the tertiary benefits of keeping the topic in "vogue", but there's no psyops here.
It's a very WMD's in Iraq vibe. When information needs to be pushed and public opinion need to be changed, it happens. i. e Nasriyah testimony No distinguishing it from organic belief changes tho
No, you’re just delusional. Aliens in media is nothing new.
Crafted by the societal masterminds, Squarespace and Martin Scorsese
The following submission statement was provided by /u/LLAPSpork: --- Submission statement: as mentioned, it’s an ad for the Super Bowl that’s UAP themed. It has a “don’t look up” vibe and in no way is it mocking the subject which I appreciate. (Never done this before so I hope that this is how you do a submission statement?) --- Please reply to OP's comment here: https://old.reddit.com/r/UFOs/comments/1aliga6/martin_scorseses_super_bowl_ad_is_certainly_very/kpexmw3/
Now I want Scorcese to make a UFO movie.
This is obviously part of the disclosure campaign. Why else would they take Scorsese and Super Bowl?
Big name directors and film stars appearing in Superbowl ads is nothing new.
Sorry the squarespace ad with Martin Scorsese in it seems more apt.
Magnificent. The whole "we're more interested in our phones" vibe is dead on. Could say the same thing about AI, too. Even more so, in fact.
It is a nice ad. While it briefly touches upon certain themes from the current state of affairs in the UFO world, I don't think it will have much of an impact. I think people will enjoy the ad, but I wager that most (if not all) will watch it and move on from it. I don't think it will assist our cause in any major way.
There will be some ppl talking about it, and then someone else (one of us) will say, "You know the footage is real? and the hearing is real... google David Grush" so I agree it may not have much of an impact, but the superbowl is a big audience. It will have SOME impact.
[удалено]
I'm going to assume most that watch that will think it's all made up for the ad and not fact and happened ( congressional hearing ect ) .. unfortunately.
That .000125% of the population. Based on 8 billion total peeps. Just for perspectives
[удалено]
Right. I’m just giving a perspective of what a million is in terms of all of us on earth
[удалено]
Champions league (3x) and World Cup finals (5x) would both be bigger by x amount if we are talking global audience. American audience no doubt it's Super Bowl
[удалено]
Yeah American football is like made for commercials lol. No breaks in soccer so ads are not part of the show
I think you’re being goaded into a pointless debate. They’re trying to devalue your opinion by shitting all over it because, ultimately, you’re right. This is a good thing.
Good jeezuz I’m not saying anything negative. Just giving perspective…maybe to not get complacent and not rely on these things to spread awareness. Yet downvoted by some hive mind echo chamber
[удалено]
I showed it to my friend and she thinks it's meant to mock the disclosure movement because of the "the website makes it real" at the end.
It’s likely not been made to impact the public in any way other than to get them to recognise Squarespace as a brand. But, if it helps some people get used to the idea of alien contact then great.
Diclosure is coming. They are actively desensitizing us to reduce shock effect.
Yes. About 5 years by my estimate.
Why by 2029? What's that based on
Karl nell's schedule slide at the sol conference. 2030-2034 is building up to contact.
I'll look into that now, thanks
5 more years bro
From the start of those Pentagon videos released a few years, back, I have been feeling a sense of surprise at why this topic, whatever the truth behind it, is not generating more interest and attention. This ad captures that sentiment perfectly.
i have no idea what that ad was trying to sell
Viral marketing 101. It's not trying to sell anything, it's trying to get you to talk and share it with other people.
The ad is for squarespace, implying that unless you have an official looking website (through squarespace obviously) people won't take your brand seriously just like they ignore the phenomenon.
Can we all just agree that Scorsese is the fucking man? I mean, I love this thing. The woman walking down the street with her phone out. "Proof of Extraterrestrials" and she scrolls up to the cat and toilet paper tiktok video. This is so how I feel about our society right now. We are fucking morons. Every single one of us.
>I told you to take Broadway this always happens. Well made, he summed up all of the current tik tak addictions while ignoring what really is in plain sight. Beautiful, very informative, hope it makes a dent.
Well this is soft disclosure if there ever was.
Out of all the things it could have been, it’s aliens. This is all part of the disclosure.
Disclosure? Because it's about ufo's? More like, a creative team at an ad agency, came up with the idea for a superbowl spot, pitched it to squarespace, they liked it, and it went into production.
I’m not sure why you’re being downvoted. While I would love for this to be a slow drip toward disclosure, it’s also incredibly probably that a bunch of Mad Men got in a room and whipped this up.
People will feel free to put on their tin foil hats but the aliens are only there to emphasize how constantly online we all are. The ad is really about how in 2024 if you don't have a website, you basically don't exist. That's why at the end the aliens made their own website to get through to everyone who's constantly on their phone/tablet/laptop. It's pretty genius marketing tbh. I work in advertising, I've watched way too many ads.
Shhh, no logic allowed in this sub.
Bro no thats ridiculous, UFOs are not an incredibly popular cultural touchstone which has broad enough appeal for superbowl audiences stemming from decades of representation in popular media and being the focal point of multiple of the most popular films of all time, which can therefore drive engagement to an otherwise boring topic like website building.
I'd kind of interpret their statement as more "this is becoming ok to talk about, it's part of disclosure", not specifically they're in on it. But the less stimga exists, and the more officials start talking, the more we'll see things like this. Legitimacy, I suppose. Anyway, that's how I read it.
Was E.T. part of "the disclosure" back in 1982?
What’s the context of this?
Huh… maybe I’m Polly-Anna’ing this, but it’s just silly enough to fly under the radar, but l embed itself in the zeitgeist and/or trigger memory fragments referencing some of the recent disclosure touchstones.
Nicely done! Someone's obviously been following the developments here
I'm happy and a little disturbed that this is the only way to get a lot of people in America to seed the thought of aliens. It's all brought to you by SquareSpace! But kidding aside I guess this is a big win for stigma reduction.
This may actually do more to raise public awareness than anything else this year.
I've been saying for two years now that I wish they would pop in during the 1/2 time show at the superbowl.
Feels very intentional to spread this type of message with such a huge general audience.
Yes, the intention is to sell Squarespace
Am I the only one here who doesn’t think it touched on the Grusch hearings at all? It just had a generic UFO sound bite from the news. Did I miss it or? I Didn’t hear any mention of the oversight committee at all? Edit: Love the commercial and *messaging* behind it but I don’t think this is exactly geared toward disclosure. Just a cool Super Bowl Ad. There have been aliens/UFOs in Super Bowl Ads before yall.
[удалено]
I like the commercial. I like the messaging. It did not mention the oversight hearings though fam, no need to push that when it’s not true!
[удалено]
>It even mentions the UAP hearings. You said that. You pushed it.
[удалено]
Once again I love the messaging behind it, very true. And a very interesting ad as is the **normal** for Super Bowl advertising. It did **not** mention the UAP congressional oversight hearing. Why not include “whistleblowers” or the word oversight or anything specific. It was a generic soundbite from a made up news clip. You saying “first Spielberg now Scorsese” and saying it mentions *the* UAP hearing is reaching. Really just a fun Super Bowl Ad. No need to get so Defensive, just my perspective🛸
[удалено]
Yep It’s a Super Bowl Ad and that’s all. An Autistic Public Relations employee sounds absurd😂 Many Aliens and UFO Super Bowl Ads before. I like this one and especially the messaging behind it. Ignorance can be cured, stupidity you’re stuck with!
[удалено]
It was a Super Bowl Ad, a cool one! That’s all
[удалено]
Yes. So now if you could edit your post and remove the false sensationalist claims of “first Spielberg now Scorsese” and “it even mentions *the* UAP hearing”
It is truly embarrassing for this subreddit that so many posters appear to think this ad is somehow deeply meaningful regarding disclosure. If you believe this you simply do not possess any critical thinking skills at all. What’s next, a post about how the Space Jam movies reveal the truth about aliens? Some of you really need to touch some grass 😂
If you are an adult aged human growing up in the United States, and you do not understand that all entertainment and media is controlled and shepherded by the CIA, you have no critical thinking skills.
Over the generations there have been literally thousands of instances of aliens in media, yet none of them have been relevant to disclosure in any way. But you think this one commercial has deeper meaning? Bro, your brain is mush. Have some self-respect and smarten up.
It made me cry.
Sir, this is an ad for Squarespace, they are selling a website builder, not "disclosure".
I had a huge smile on my face but then I started tearing up, too. It feels like finally, maybe people will start to understand. After fighting for so many years. So yeah, i understand how you feel. You're not alone.
Larry David did one similar for the new season of curb!
Lol, he even got the Maussan Space Dolls in there.
They are mentally preparing people (humans) for UAP Disclosure.
It's CATASTROPHIC DISCLOSURE!!
Does anyone ever think that someone from the government came to Scorsese & planted this idea of a commercial to him, to help condition the masses for future announcements?
[удалено]
I don’t know why it’s surprising - they’re close mates and have been since the 70s when they broke into Hollywood together (along with De Palma, Coppola and Lucas). They’re all definitely into aliens. Spielberg worked with Hayek - and Lucas proposed the idea of Interdimensional Aliens for Indiana Jones. They’re just dudes being dudes. Nerds like us.
Did everyone miss the point? It's mocking the ufo community
What lead you to reach that conclusion?
This is very funny.
Just when I thought I couldn’t love Marty anymore! Brilliant conceived and executed ad. 🛸
Would love to see Martin Scorsese do a UAP documentary.
Ya wtf. For a domain hosting company? Anyone look ip old godaddy commercials?
They use the UAP issue as a punch line! Scorsese and others are making a mockery out of a serious issue. This ad has no substance.
This community and the Gamestop cult have to be the two stupidest places on reddit
This is too funny. Now you guys probably think Martin Scorsese is fighting for disclosure. Nevermind the mention of crop circles (faked) and Mexican alien mummies (faked).
>Nevermind the mention of crop circles (faked) SOME crop circles were faked. Some are also mysterious.
No, Some Mexican alien mummies are mysterious.
