Good response Kunga. Don't ever offer a dissenting opinion.

I find the ad lacking in originality, too. Welcome to Apple ads. 
However Apple is an American company and it is an American-style ad. 
Boom... Bang... Bigger... Faster... if it offends thee. Blow it up. 
It is the American way.

Duck. Here comes the vitriol.
